<span>While Hawthorne does not, in his story, offer an obvious answer to the meaning of the rosebush, we can surmise several things. It is possible that the rosebush symbolizes Hester who, in spite of everything, has not given in to the rigid judgmental system of the Puritan theocracy. Red roses often symbolize passion,and certainly Hester's pregnancy is evidence of a passion she has experienced. The beauty of the rose and the beauty of the scarlet A shows a kind of beauty not evident in the self-righteous people of the community. Finally, it shows that something beautiful can grow in the coldest of climates.</span>

advise south african youth on two preventive measures that can help in combating risk behaviour and provide 2 practical examples
Troyanec [42]
Risky behavior is when young people engage in drinking, gambling, smoking or sexual activities.
There are various measures that can be taken to avoid it. In my opinion Sports and arranging for their playgrounds in an attractive way is the first and foremost measure that can be taken. Their energies can easily be channelized to positive sports activities.<span>
Community works as well as engaging in effective counseling can be another measure which will not help the youth but through community work a beautiful society can also be formed.</span>
