Without claiming for the human skeleton a wholly conventional beauty, we may assert that he is certainly not uglier than a bull-

dog, whose popularity never wanes, and that he has a vastly more cheerful and ingratiating expression. "Without claiming for the human skeleton a wholly conventional beauty..." What effect does this opening dependent clause have upon the sentence? A) It lets the reader know that the beauty of a skeleton is entirely in the eye of the beholder. B) It maintains that the question of whether or not the skeleton is beautiful is a hotly contested one. C) It clarifies that the writer isn't making a controversial claim concerning the skeleton's appearance. D) It urges the reader not to allow his conventional thoughts concerning skeletons to prejudice his opinion.

In at least 150 words, identify and describe the setting, and the way the author uses imagery to describe it for Part 1 of Necta
Delicious77 [7]

In the novel “<em>Nectar in a Sieve</em>” by Kamala Markandaya (1954), one of the main themes is the contrast between the tradition (Part 1) and the modern (Part 2), or the rural life and the city life. While <u>Part 1</u> takes place in an unnamed village in rural India, <u>Part 2</u> takes place in an unnamed major city in urban India. The author used imagery throughout the novel in order to call the reader’s attention. This technique is used <u>to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that it appeals to the reader’s physical senses</u>. For example, Markandaya used onomatopoeia together with imagery in the following passage “<em>… a click-clank of stone on stone with intermittent dull explosions</em>”. Water is also an example of imagery in the novel, since the patterns of the rain portray Rukmani’s view of the world and the balance of certainty and uncertainty, the good times and the bad ones.  Moreover, water was also an important element in <u>Nathan’s death</u> and <u>for the women</u>.
