Answer:

Staging area, supply air lock, hot zone

Explanation:

All of these words can be encountered in the following passage from <em>The Hot Zone </em>by Richard Preston:

They closed up their suits and lumbered across the staging area to a large air-lock door. This was a supply air lock. It did not lead into the hot zone. It led to the outside world. They opened it. On the floor of the air lock sat the seven garbage bags.

The term<em> jargon</em> refers to words and phrases used by a specific group of people that may be difficult to understand to those who do not belong to the said group. It is used in a particular communicative context, which is usually a certain occupation, but any ingroup can have its own jargon. The purpose of jargon is to increase the efficiency of communication between people involved in the same field or group.

In the given passage, the examples of jargon are words <em>staging area, supply air lock, </em>and <em>hot zone.</em><em> </em>When we read this isolated passage, it may be difficult to completely understand its meaning and visualize the described scene, as we may not know what these words mean in the given context. Words <em>outside world </em>and <em>garbage bags</em> are commonly used by everyone, so they do not belong to jargon.

<u />

According to the given question, the narrator says that the American artist is making unnecessary protests about having so little freedom.

This shows an irony that he does not appreciate the freedom he enjoys and feels he lacks freedom.

As a result of this, we can see that the logical inference we can make about the good lesson which he wants to  teach the American artist is that he would show him how little freedom there was in China twenty years ago and how he enjoys freedom.

Answer:

"She leveled her spear, and threw it with all her might. The boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin."

Explanation:

In James Baldwin's "Old Greek Stories", one such story is that of Atalanta, the Fleet-Footed Huntress" of Arcadia. She had been abandoned in the forest by the orders of her father, the king of Arcadia at birth because of her gender and brought up first by wild bears and then by hunters.

The theme of gender discrimination is prevalent not only in this story but also in the society as a whole. Women are presumed to be the weaker sex while the men are supposed to be brave and do the hard work, go hunting etc. This shows the gender disparity which through Atalanta, this disparity was put into focus. Her decision to go on the hunt shocked the other men, who <em>"had never heard of such a thing as a girl going out with heroes to hunt wild boars." </em>But Atalanta showed that a person's gender is less significant compared to his/ her actions She strike the first wound and help kill the wild boar. During the hunt, she was the one who brought the boar to a standstill with her spear, making the "<em>boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin.</em>" This act shows that her actions matter more than what the men think of her and women and general.
