Information must be officially confirmed by a government office.
Explanation:
At times when the country is embroiled in conflict, it is common to get the wrong rumors about whether the government will go to war or not. Many people, in order to generate fear in the population, may disclose that the country goes into war or some other kind of conflict, however it is important not to listen to rumors and wait for official information from the government.

The wallpaper becomes an obsession with the narrator.She's confined, and with nothing else to do she concentrates on her surroundings. In this case the yellow wallpaper. What her physician has deemed a rest cure,is emotionally any but. The wallpaper serves to capture her imagination, irritate her, and completely stress her out.

'I never saw a worse paper in my life. One of those sprawling flamboyant patterns committing every artistic sin. It is dull enough to confuse the eye in following, pronounced enough to constantly irritate and provoke study, and when you follow the lame uncertain curves for a little distance they suddenly commit suicide--plunge off at outrageous angles, destroy themselves in unheard of contradictions.
The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight.

No wonder the children hated it! I should hate it myself if I had to live in this room long.'

Explanation:
The narrator of "The Leap" Louise Erdrich tells of how she was indebted to her now-blind mother for her very existence. Not only once, but thrice is she indebted to her for the life she is living now.
One such incident was when she was seven years old. The narrator was asleep on the first floor of the house when a fire started and engulfed the whole house. It also burned the only stairway that led upstairs. The babysitter had called the emergency workers and had gone outside. When the narrator's parents came, her mother Anna Avalon decided to take things on her own and jumped into the room through the window. Using her past training as a circus performer, <em>"she made her way up and, along her stomach, inched the length of a bough that curved above the branch that brushed the roof"</em>. Then she took the narrator and "<em>flew</em>" out of the window and safely into the firefighter's net, thus saving her life.
