English

The character of Editha is a foil, developed to portray <span>the fickleness of the arguments that support war. The author ironically reveals how Editha repeats the passages from newspapers and magazines supporting the need to go to war. But the author takes a step further to give us a view of Editha’s perception when she says, "But now it doesn't matter about the how or why. Since the war has come, all that is gone. There are no two sides any more. There is nothing now but our country." Finally, toward the end of the story, Mrs. Gearson sarcastically says, "No, you didn't expect him to get killed," a commentary by the author to show the ignorance of people who idealize war.</span>

A. 
This statement operates under the assumption that whoever is reading it respects and follows the trends set by the majority of people. While this percentage could mean that just a few households (depending on how many were surveyed) actually said that they prefer Glisten toothpaste, the reader is supposed to see 90 percent, and feel that if 90 percent of people are using and liking Glisten, they should try it too.

I think they are watching a match. They do not have enough money to buy the tickets. So, they are watching the match by climbing on their cycles, because the stadium boundary wall is very high.
