Maybe the third and second question
From the beginning this passage talked about Faizula
doing things for other people, not really looking for anything in return. He didn’t
want to bother the person behind him by leaning his seat back, let other people
go ahead even though he didn’t really want to. For a while it didn’t seem like
he would catch a break but when he was nice to the guy selling roses, and he
saw how it impacted him, all his niceness payed off.
I think the roses in the story represent the beauty
that can come out of one kind act. It sounds cheesy but, in the story, it talked
about how Faizula felt good about giving the man a smile and extra money, even
though the whole day he was being kind to no avail. The man was trying to sell
the roses to many people but each one shot him down, then when Faizula changed
his mind and bought one it changed the man’s whole mood, and in a way gave him
hope.
Faiula’s culture influences the story by creating a
sort of guideline we know he must follow. Not only should one be always kind
but self-disciplinary. He showed self-discipline when he didn’t break his fast
and chose to focus on his work. Through out the story he was consistent with
his actions and thoughts and that emphasizes how good of a person he really is.
A small but extremely important qroup of verbs do not express any activity at all. this includes: is,are,were,was,will,be etc.
