One of the first hints we can find about gods in Nectar in a Sieve is found in Chapter 3, when Rukmani talks about the difficulties her and her partner, Nathan, have to conceive a child. In her visit to her mother, who is a very spiritual person, Rukmani criticizes the god's willingness to help human beings:
"My mother, whenever I paid her a visit, would make me accompany her to a temple, and together we would pray and pray before the deity, imploring for help until we were giddy. But the Gods have other things to do; they cannot attend to the pleas of every suppliant who dares to raise his cares to heaven. And so the years rolled by and still we had only one child, and that a daughter."
Another example of Rukmani's reference to gods, is found in her description of her youngest son's health condition, as well as her struggling to help him. This can be found in Chapter 16:
"I gazed at the small tired face, soothed by sleep as it had not been for many nights, and even as I puzzled about the change, profound gratitude flooded through me, and it seemed to me that the Gods were not remote, not unheedful, since they had heard his cries and stilled them as if by a miracle."
Adam and Eve eat the apples to gain knowledge but at the cost of their promise to God, thus contributing to the theme of Betrayal.
Option B.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Eve in the story ate a fruit which was said to the fruit of knowledge. This fruit was ate by Eve to get knowledge and be intelligent. She also gave some of this to Adam.
This came as a betrayal to God because both of them had promised to god that they will both not eat it. But in the greed of knowledge, they ate it and broke the promise.

This shows how much Claudius cares about being King and holding onto his throne.
He knows that the public loves Hamlet, which is why he can't just arrest him for the murder of Polonius, he has to be much sneakier and trickier than that, otherwise the public will take Hamlet's side and Claudius will lose support.
The answer to this question, is this is something that YOU have to do YOURSELF. It claims that this is your story and that you need to have some fun with it. Basically asking for people to write it for you and then using their stories to answer your question is cheating. Some people on this website are asking for you to explain the answer and help them understand, not just hand the answers to them. I'm sorry if this comes off as rude, but someone could catch you cheating.
