One theme of "A Decade" revolves around forbidden influences/censorship. In the story, Zhu Wenli is caught singing an Uigar fold song and the narrator tried to secretly learn to sing the song by herself. Zhu became nervous since during the cultural revolution anything related to non-revolutionary music was forbidden. Not only pertaining to music, but also mementos like pictures, furniture, paintings, jewelry, and even colorful clothing. All violations were punished rigorously. In the present time, students are presented with many choices in the world of online social media. Due to the increasing popularity of the various social media sites, teens face an interesting but often dangerous world of possible forbidden influences. Teachers, educators, parents have to do their best to nurture their student's curiosity while guarding them against the dangers lurking in the online world. To conclude, censorship may be necessary for the student's safety.

What is the conclusion of Ruthless by William Demille
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ruth gets the drop on Wolfman, shooting him in the back at close range with a pistol. There are more pages remaining than any denouement would require, so Wolfman's return isn't that much of a surprise itself. He nabs Ruth, tosses her in a car, drags her to a field to finish his kill. She's so close to salvation. She can see a convenient store up ahead and hears cop cars approaching. If she can just fight Wolfman a few more minutes, she can make it. But she knows he'll overpower her. He's determined to end her even if it means guaranteeing his own capture. So she does the only thing she can. She plays dead. Wolfman is so convinced that he buries her in a pit. He shovels dirt onto her face, and Ruth fights the urge to blink. The girl who values winning above all else must give up and be defeated in order to save herself. In order to continue to be anything at all, she has to become nothing. Just a few pages previous we saw Ruth floating triumphantly downriver in what should have been a standard baptismal/rebirth moment, but it's not till she's pulled out of the ground like a resurrected corpse that she truly allows change into her heart. It's a great ending, the right ending. Ruth is grating for a good part of the book, prideful, conceited, cocky. Going limp against every instinct, every self-taught survival mechanism she has, Ruth is truly humbled, truly changed. Ruthless is Adams' first book, and it's flawed. But the ending she chose is perfect.
