Read the passage below and answer the question. Some old people keep young at heart in spite of wrinkles and gray hairs, can sym

pathize with children's little cares and joys, make them feel at home, and can hide wise lessons under pleasant plays, giving and receiving friendship in the sweetest way. But Aunt March had not this gift, and she worried Amy very much with her rules and orders, her prim ways, and long, prosy talks. Finding the child more docile and amiable than her sister, the old lady felt it her duty to try and counteract, as far as possible, the bad effects of home freedom and indulgence. What can you infer about Aunt March? She is laid-back. She is rigid. She is friendly. She dislikes Amy

In the beginning it states how some elderly people have gray hairs and wrinkles, but despite that they have sympathy and are young at heart. Then, it says how Aunt March doesn't have these abilities which helps us conclude that she is most likely a strict character. Continuing on, the text explains how she has many rules she likes to put into place. Therefore, we can conclude that the answer can't be that Aunt March is laid back or friendly. Also, the text never stated that Aunt March doesn't like Amy.


The Answer is: She is rigid

<h3>(Look in the dictionary and rigid means to be inflexible)</h3>

The correct answer is B. She is rigid

Explanation:

In the text, the narrator explains Aunt March is not like some old people that despite their age act friendly with children "But Aunt March had not this gift". This suggests on the opposite Aunt March is serious and rigid or strict, this is supported by the fact she is worried about rules "she worried Amy very much with her rules and orders" and she seems to want to control another character called Amy "the old lady felt it her duty to try and counteract". According to these details, it is possible to infer Aunt March is rigid or strict rather than friendly or laid-back.

What is your interpretation of "The Story of My Experiments with Truth"?
Novay_Z [31]

D. In The Story of My Experiments With Truth, Gandhi supports his argument by referencing general examples.

For Example,

According to this philosophy, satyagrahis—practitioners of satyagraha—achieve correct insight into the real nature of an evil situation by observing a nonviolence of the mind, by seeking truth in a spirit of peace and love, and by undergoing a rigorous process of self-scrutiny. In so doing, the satyagrahi encounters truth in the absolute. By refusing to submit to the wrong or to cooperate with it in any way, the satyagrahi asserts that truth. Throughout the confrontation with evil, the satyagrahi must adhere to nonviolence, for to employ violence would be to lose correct insight. Satyagrahis always warn their opponents of their intentions; satyagraha forbids any tactic suggesting the use of secrecy to one’s advantage. Satyagraha includes more than civil disobedience. Its full range of application extends from the details of correct daily living to the construction of alternative political and economic institutions. Satyagraha seeks to conquer through conversion: in the end, there is neither defeat nor victory but rather a new harmony.

Satyagraha draws from the ancient Indian ideal of ahimsa (“noninjury”), which is pursued with particular rigour by Jains, many of whom live in Gujarat, where Gandhi grew up. In developing ahimsa into a modern concept with broad political consequences, as satyagraha, Gandhi also drew from the writings of Leo Tolstoy and Henry David Thoreau, from the Bible, and from the Bhagavadgita, on which he wrote a commentary. Gandhi first conceived satyagraha in 1906 in response to a law discriminating against Asians that was passed by the British colonial government of the Transvaal in South Africa. In 1917 the first satyagraha campaign in India was mounted in the indigo-growing district of Champaran. During the following years, fasting and economic boycotts were employed as methods of satyagraha in India, until the British left the country in 1947.

Critics of satyagraha, both in Gandhi’s time and subsequently, have argued that it is unrealistic and incapable of universal success, since it relies upon a high standard of ethical conduct in the opponent, the representative of evil, and demands an unrealistically strong level of commitment from those struggling for social amelioration. Nonetheless, satyagraha played a significant role in the civil rights movement led by Martin Luther King, Jr., in the United States and has spawned a continuing legacy in South Asia itself.
