Answer:

It is the summarry here

Explanation:

The “I” in the story is a businessman with a weird ability of remembering faces but not the names of people. Once he saw a face, he never forgets them. This strange capability both helped him and got him into trouble. One day, he was late from work and was traveling back home in a train later than usual. It was then he saw a man get in from London. One look at him and the author knew that the man was from Bardfield like him although he didn’t know where he had seen his face there.

The train was quite crowded and the author smiled at the gentleman who returned it to him. However, their carriage soon became empty leaving only the two of them behind. The author tried to make conversation with him in many ways including about a business deal that he had made that morning. However, the man talked very little and soon the author gave up on him. Once, when he looked up at the man from his newspaper, the author found the man asleep.

When they reached their station, the author woke up his co-passenger and they walked outside the station. As it was dark and rainy, the author offered to drop the man home in his car if it was on the route that he took. The man thanked him and they resumed their journey together with the man remaining silent.

Half way through when they were at a deserted spot, the man said that he would get down there. The author thought that he was crazy but slowed down anyway. Suddenly, he felt a sharp blow on his head and he fell unconscious. He vaguely remembered being pulled out of his car. When the author regained consciousness, he had a bad headache and he found himself robbed of his car, wallet, umbrella and watch. Slowly, he made his way by foot to Bardfield and to the police station there.

When he reached the police station, the author remembered who the person was. There was a lookout notice posted on the wall that the author had seen daily for a week. The man was John and he was accused of robbery with violence and murder attempts. Once again, remembering just the face and not the name had landed the author in trouble.

Hope this helps

What did Shakespeare add to Macbeth to please king James 1
umka2103 [35]

Macbeth" relates the story of someone who overthrows the King of Scotland by killing him. This is similar to the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, when there was an attempt made by a group of rebel Catholics to kill King James I and blow up the parliament. In addition, the mention of the witches in Shakespeare's tragedy coincides with James' enthusiasm with the subject of witches.

Another important aspect of "Macbeth" is that it is the only Shakespearean play that is set in Scotland. This helped to legitimize King James' rightful succession to the throne of England, as he was the son of Mary Queen of Scots.

Imagine that you had no problems in your life. how would life be different? Write a paragraph.​
valentina_108 [34]
Just think of it. Imagine today you have absolutely nothing going on. You have an entire day ahead of you but there is nothing you need to worry about. Your body is on a routine. Your mind is on a routine. It would be pretty monotonous.

We often do not realize how fast time is passing by because we are busy dealing with things. But imagine if we didn’t have to? Life would go slow.

Since there are problems, we instill gratitude in our minds. But if we had everything and absolutely no problems, gratefulness would never be something we’d consider. We usually realize the importance of things when we don’t have it with us.

Apart from that, our development would be lagging. I say this because so many amazing inventions have been made because inventors spotted a problem and thought they could fix. Similarly, as humans, we may not be motivated to do stuff ourselves.

Motivation is different for everyone, but let’s say you didn’t have to think of becoming independent, many would lose their motivation to find a decent paying job. Challenges in our life builds us up as a person and I feel like even our personal development would fall behind.

I do think that may be people wouldn’t stress if life had no problems.

In life, we are the problem solvers. Everything is a problem if you think of it that way but at the same time, nothing is a problem if you take it that way. But human nature is such that we find ways to create problems even if it does not exist. What a problematic life looks like to us could be someone else’s peaceful life.

Life without problems wouldn’t be like life at all and it definitely wouldn’t a roller coaster ride with a story that’s worth telling.
