1.it was a bright sunny day in April,and the clocks were striking thirteen

This is the narrative hook. A narrative hook occurs at the beginning of a passage to get the reader interested in the rest of the story. In this hook, the speaker begins talking about what seems to be a wonderful great day. Then the reader is hit with the fact that the clocks are striking thirteen. This makes it very different than what the reader is used to. While many people use a 24 hour clock instead of a 12 hour clock, it is usually only in digital form. Therefore, the word striking is not used. Striking is used for a digital clock because the hands move and are said to strike numbers. It is rare to find a 24 hour analog clock in our setting.

What is it that lives if it is fed, and dies if you give it a drink?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Thirst

Explanation:

Thirst can take on several meanings that cause this riddle to make even more sense than it would if thirst were only the urge to hydrate. A thirst for knowledge is the desire to learn more. This type of thirst is satiated by a flow of new information gleaned through learning. Feeding the thirst for knowledge awakens more curiosity in the individual.

Conversely, physical thirst disappears when given a drink since the body does not immediately require hydration as it did when the brain transmitted the feeling of thirst.
