Answer:
Nepal’s fuel supplies – mainly coming from the Indian Oil Corporation – have been largely cut off. India claims its trucks are reluctant to cross the border because of turmoil in the region, but many Nepalis are convinced that India is deliberately blockading the country, trying to convince Kathmandu to rewrite the constitution, the Financial Times reported last week.
Cordaid project sites in Rasuwa district, about 3.5 hours drive from Kathmandu, have been affected by the blockade and fuel shortage. Staff members of Cordaid and partner organizations have not been able to visit the area and monitor relief operations on a regular basis. They are covering long distances by foot to do their work in the field.
The last two weeks we haven’t been able to send trucks to sites with emergency items (WASH materials) to the project sites in Rasuwa. The first phase of the emergency recovery project is supposed to end by 25th of October, but due to the situation this is likeley to be postponed.
Cordaid driver Anil Tamang: “I got 20 litres of fuel last week, after queuing for 6 hours. But now gas stations have been closed completely.” Cordaid continues to conduct risk assessments in two villages in Rasuwa district. We can only do this, because most of the trainers, community mobilizers and community members are walking long distances to reach the villages.
Fuel shortages severely hit Nepal’s economy. The beginning of October is the start of the tourist season, an important source of income for the country. But restaurants are closing due to shortage of cooking gas and essential supplies. The fuel crisis affects the many trade fairs and annual exhibitions that come with the big festival of dasain, starting on October 16th. Moreover, the many thousands who directly depend on their daily earnings, are losing their daily bread as a result of the blockades

Answer:
One day, I was taking a walk around my neighborhood when I ran into a small, scared puppy. After a few minutes, I managed to convince it to approach me and started petting it. It was really cute, and I felt like keeping it. But the puppy seemed somewhat familiar, and I realized that I saw posters about a lost dog with a picture of this puppy attached. I picked up the puppy, walked to the spot where one of these posters was, and phoned the number the owner left. The owner picked up and was overjoyed that I found his puppy. We met soon after, and I was really happy that the puppy returned to its home. I felt like a did a good thing, and despite not getting to keep the puppy, I learned that doing the right thing pays off the most.

Explanation:
In the first 12 lines of "Trust" by Susan Kinsolving, the poet uses imagery to describe a world apart from human culture (A). The poet describes different animals in their natural habitat, away from the sight of humans. This is clearly shown from the passage that reads, "far from cameras or cars." Also, the poet mentions a tasmanian tiger which is believed to be extinct, but could still be living in the wild. If it is, however, it has never been seen by humans. The poem is called "Trust" because we need to simply believe and have confidence that all of these things happen or exist even though we cannot see them.
