<span>"It took them a minute to grasp what he was saying, even who he was. " This line gives us a hint that they probably had forgotten about Ravi because they tried so hard to remember who he was.And indeed, the next sentence which says "They had quite forgotten him." confirms that they definitely had completely forgotten about him.
The sentence at the end of the paragraph - "</span><span>Having disappeared from the scene, he had disappeared from their minds." gives us an idea that Ravi was completely wiped out from the children's minds, which is a saddening truth. </span>
One of the many persuasive messages of President Mandela's speech :
“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it . The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.” He then continued " if you’re afraid; it’s normal, you’re still a brave person. What you need to do next is to conquer that fear by taking action." He attempt to convince people by his technique of persuasion. By anticipating an audience’s questions, He confront the question in their mind. And he answer their question. This connects with people because it builds trust, people see that He understand their view, and makes new space in their mind for his message.
Answer: In Greek mythology, the Titan Prometheus had a reputation as being something of a clever trickster and he famously gave the human race the gift of fire and the skill of metalwork, an action for which he was punished by Zeus, who ensured everyday that an eagle ate the liver of the Titan as he was helplessly chained to a rock.
Prometheus (meaning "Forethought") was one of the ringleaders of the battle between the Titans and the Olympian gods led by Zeus to gain control of the heavens, a struggle which was said to have lasted ten years. Prometheus did, however, switch sides and support the victorious Olympians when the Titans would not follow his advice to use trickery in the battle.
According to Hesiod's Theogony, Prometheus' father was Iapetus, his mother was Clymene (or Themis in other versions) and his brothers were fellow Titans Epimetheus (Afterthought or Hindsight), Menoetius, and Atlas. One of Prometheus' sons was Deucalion, an equivalent of Noah, who survived a great flood by sailing in a great chest for nine days and nights and who, with his wife Pyrrha, became the founder of the human race.
In some traditions, Prometheus made the first man from clay, whilst in others, the gods made all creatures on Earth, and Epimetheus and Prometheus were given the task of endowing them with gifts so that they might survive and prosper. Epimetheus liberally spread around such gifts as fur and wings but by the time he got around to man, he had run out of gifts.
