The statement which best expresses the central idea of "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan is:

C) The best way to understand someone's true abilities is to listen to him or her use language.

Amy Tan's essay “Mother Tongue” is about the difficulties that a child has to face if it grows in a family in which its parents speak 'limited English.' Amy's mother was among such parent who was unable to speak fluent and proper English. It is through the language that the person is judged by others. Amy was brought up by her mother and because of this, her writing style was much influenced by the language spoken at her home. Her mother taught her that a person's perception of the world is influenced by the language spoken at home.

Compare and contrast ancient tales "the brave little parrot " and " if not higher".Explain specific moral,spritual and ethical a
marishachu [46]

Answer:

"The brave little parrot" represents Buddha in an animal form.  Behind its nature is the foundation of love.  Inspired to solve immediate problems in its environment, it fruitlessly tried to extinguish the fire burning a whole forest by dripping water from the ocean.  It did not wait for the super savers,  but acted with its little resources to eventually drive the big God to tears, which came down as a rainfall to quench the fire and joyfully restored the environment for the sake of the desperate animals inhabiting it.

On the other hand, "if not higher" depicts the sudden disappearance of the Rabbi during the Penitential service.  The Rabbi did not disappear into heaven during the service but went to the wood to cut firewood for some sick woman who needed the warmth from a fireside.  Truly, the Rabbi ascended into the highest heavens, by allowing himself to be driven by love.  God will answer his prayers readily because he is practical and knows what it means to answer the prayers of needy people.

The moral, spiritual, and ethical teachings in these ancient tales are comparable, with the contrast existing only in the personalities involved in the tales.   Buddha is supposed to a God, but he came in the nature of a parrot.  The Rabbi is a minister of God, who directs the people's prayers to God, but he tries his best to solve people's problems, at least in the name and for the sake of God.

Everyone needs to make a difference in our world with our little resources.  When we try, who knows, God will come to our aid to solve the big problems which we cannot handle.

We can turn our long prayers to little kindness and love here and thereafter.  They are more powerful and move God because He dwells in love.

Explanation:

"The brave little parrot" was written by Martin Rafe, 1998.  Its teaching will help children to understand the important of sharing love.  

Like the "if not higher" short story by I.L. Peretz which depicted the disappearance of the Rabbi during the Penitential service, as an ascent into heaven, these tales have rich moral, spiritual, and ethical lessons for everyone interested in living a "good samaritan" life.

The three apparitions speak to Macbeth but do not answer any questions he has. What does this suggest about the culture's point
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: D. that people cannot exert control over supernatural elements

Explanation:

When the three apparitions were summoned for Macbeth, they spoke to him but didn't answer his questions. The apparitions summoned were the armed head, a child crowned, that had a tree in his hand and a bloody child.

The apparitions told Macbeth to be careful of Macduff but despite that he was assured that no one can harm him and that he won't be overthrown until when Birnam Wood eventually moves to Dunsinane.

The three apparitions not answering his questions indicates that people cannot exert control over supernatural elements.
