Back in Pi's voice. In a roundabout way, and with digressions, and with enough interesting details to occupy even the most jaded listener, Pi tells us how he was named.

He says, "I was named after a swimming pool." Fair enough.

Mr. Francis Adirubasamy returns. He's Pi's uncle and, we might add, a champion swimmer. Pi calls Francis A. "Mamaji," which is an affectionate term for uncle in Tamil (the language Indians speak in Tamil Nadu, Pi's state in eastern India).

We meet Ravi, Pi's brother. Ravi makes fun of Mamaji. Oh, Ravi.

Mamaji once tried to teach Pi's parents how to swim but they never waded past their knees. But Pi proves a faithful student to Mamaji and learns to swim in the pool and ocean.

Pi tells us that, besides actual swimming, people also talked about swimming in his family. Especially Mamaji and Pi's father.

Mamaji tells story after story about historic pools. Some are magnificent. The best pool in Paris, according to Mamaji, is the Piscine Molitor.

Thus we have Pi's full name: Piscine Molitor Patel, after a swimming pool in France.

Which of the following quotes BEST represents the central conflict in “The Most Dangerous Game?”
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: "I wanted the ideal animal to hunt," explained the general. "So I said, `What are the attributes of an ideal quarry?' And the answer was, of course, `It must have courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason."'

Explanation: In literature, a conflict is a struggle between opposite forces, usually it is between a character (the main character or a very important one) and himself (internal conflict), society or another character (external conflict). The Most Dangerous Game is a short story by Richard Connell, which central conflict is about a General named Zaroff, who enjoys hunting humans. From the given options, the quote that best represents this conflict is "I wanted the ideal animal to hunt," explained the general. "So I said, `What are the attributes of an ideal quarry?' And the answer was, of course, `It must have courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason"' because just humans are able to reason.

TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
dem82 [27]
The Cunninghams are a poor farming family in Maycomb. They are hard-working, but are not aware of many social cues, as they spend most of their time working on the farm. Walter Cunningham Sr. is a good man overall, but gets swept into the racism and hive-mindedness of the town. 

The Ewells are also a poor family in the area, but do not have a good reputation in Maycomb. They live in a run-down part of town, their children only go to school the first day of the school year each year to sneak their way around the law, and their father is known around town for being a low-life. This proves to be true in the courtroom scene, when we find that Bob Ewell is also an abusive liar.

Answer:

Serendipity has been recently discovered in the Portage-du-Fort area, Pontiac Regional County Municipality, Quebec. Dark blue, often polysynthetic twinned on {011} and with no cleavage, serendipity crystals occur exclusively in a calc-silicate rock. Fine-grained cathedral serendipity, sometimes poikiloblastic, occurs with aluminous diopside. Less commonly, serendipity may form decussate masses in the same rock type. Serendipity is biaxial negative, with indices of refraction α 1.685(2), β 1.700(2), and γ 1.712(2); 2Vmeas. = 93.6(4)°, 2Vcalc. = 91°. Orientation matrix is X ^ c = +20.5°, Y ^ b = -42.6°, and Z ^ a = -24.6°. Dispersion is strong, r 蠐 v, and there is no pleochroism. Serendipity is triclinic, space group P1¯ with cell parameters refined from an X-ray powder-diffraction pattern: a 10.035(2), b 10.423(3), c 8.648 (2) Å, α 106.47(3)°, β 95.91(2)°, γ 124.46(2)°, V 674.3(2) Å3. The seven strongest lines of the X-ray powder diffraction pattern [d in Å(I)(hill)] are: 3.328(45)(230), 3.029 (96)(012, 021, 1 22), 2.854(96)(01¯3, 03¯1, 120), 2.689(29)(31¯1), 2.604(95)(030), 2.469(100)(2¯1¯3, 033), and 2.357(28)(22¯3, 23¯3). The crystal structure determination refined to R = 2.1% for 3877 unique reflections. The borosilicate structure, a member of the aenigmatite-rhenate group, is composed of layers parallel to (011). Layers of tetrahedral chains cross-linked by octahedral polyhedral alternate with layers of octahedral chains cross-linked by square antiprism polyhedral sheets. Tetrahedral and octahedral polyhedral are partially ordered and site assignments were determined. All cation sites are disordered to some degree.
