Answer:

Explanation:

Anita Desai uses both flash-forward and flashback effectively to show shifts in time in the story.

Here is an example of flashback from the story:

Nothing more wonderful had ever happened to him than being taken out by an uncle and bought a whole slab of chocolate all to himself, or being flung into the soda man’s pony cart and driven up to the gate by the friendly driver with the red beard and pointed ears.

Here is an example of flash-forward in the story:

He contemplated slipping out of the shed and into the fray. He wondered if it would not be better to be captured by Raghu and be returned to the milling crowd as long as he could be in the sun, the light, the free spaces of the garden, and the familiarity of his brothers, sisters, and cousins. It would be evening soon. Their games would become legitimate. The parents would sit out on the lawn on cane basket chairs and watch them as they tore around the garden or gathered in knots to share a loot of mulberries or black, teeth-splitting jamun from the garden trees. The gardener would fix the hosepipe to the water tap, and water would fall lavishly through the air to the ground, soaking the dry yellow grass and the red gravel and arousing the sweet, the intoxicating scent of water on dry earth—that loveliest scent in the world. Ravi sniffed for a whiff of it. He half-rose from the bathtub, then heard the despairing scream of one of the girls as Raghu bore down upon her.

Many monarchs insisted they were answerable to no person. what did they base their authority on?
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The monarchs that said that there was no person in the world with the right of addressing them directly based their authority on God (or the Gods their society believed in), because they had the idea that God was the one who chose them to rule, and trying to question them, was similar to questioning God itself.
