Answer :

The lines 27-44 from the short story "Night Calls" by Lisa Fugard describe the narrator's feelings about her father's response to her new talent.

Marlene had recently discovered her talent for imitating bird and animal calls.  Due to this special gift, she had gained popularity and respect from everyone at her boarding school.

When Marlene relates this to her father and offers to mimic the sounds of birds and animals for him, he shakes his head slightly and replies "I've got the real thing right outside  my window." Marlene seems to be hurt and slightly upset by his response. However, this is not new for her as she has never received any response or reaction from her father. She is pretty much used to this sort of behavior from him.

Explain Mill's "On Individuality" lays the groundwork for the development of liberal democracies in Western nations.
Ksju [112]

"On Individuality" is chapter 3 in J. S. Mill's book "On Liberty". In it, Mill discusses - even though he does not define - individuality and how happiness and achievement of superior pleasures come from it. Conformity to customs could cost a person's joy in living and his/her freedom of thought.

Individuality is directly connected to liberal democracy in the sense that such form of government allows for it to be practiced. Both ideas walk hand in hand. If a person seeks individuality, he/she is striving to think and believe whatever he/she chooses right and proper, or even most profitable. Other forms of government - such as monarchy or aristocracy -, tend to limit or, on occasion, even erase the possibility of self-expression.

It is Mill's opinion that participation in a democracy cultivates the character of the citizens. And cultivation of character is a possible definition of the word individuality. Individuality is achieved when a person is able to see him/herself respected, his/her ideas heard, even if not accepted. The necessary freedom for a person to do that - to think, talk and act on his/her own terms - comes with democracy.

Please explain the cause and effect of relationship ? Add a lot of details as you can and of course some examples.
const2013 [10]

Well I'll just hit it kinda vaguely to hit it all at once. So imagine you do something nice for a person, like buy them a gift or a present, that will cause a fondness and a bond between that person and you, which in turn establishes a relationship. Pretty much, in order to cause a relationship, you have to establish a positive bond with the person or some kind of being. The effect of having a relationship would be something like a deeper trust in others, improvement of the same or other relationships, increased happiness and so on. (I'm just assuming that these are all positive relationships.)  So, an example would be like, you see a nice girl/guy, you talk to them and become good friends which would result in establishing a relationship. After establishing a relationship, your relationship would become more intimate and you would become better friends, or maybe even become partners. You can even get a negative relationship by creating a negative relation, then as a result it would be a toxic relationship. The toxic relationship would then result in it being harmful.
