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.

How can you tell that bees are intelligent insects?​
son4ous [18]

Answer: Honeybees demonstrate lots of behaviors that scan as “intelligent” to humans, including many that are unusual or highly advanced for any animal, let alone insects. They have symbolic language in what's known as the “waggle dance,” a symbolic movement that conveys the distance, direction, and quality of nectar sources.

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!
Alexandra [31]

I believe the tone is somewhat dramatic based on the dialogue such as "shot his hand out in front of him", it makes the story seem a lot more interesting than what it really is; a normal encounter.
