In Hard Times by Charles Dickens, the scene in which the characters discuss the
depiction of horses on wallpaper and flowers on carpets is the author's way of showing the absurdity believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life
Answer is D- believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life
D). Believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life.
Explanation:
'Hard Times' is one of the most acknowledged works of Dickens as it primarily aims to satirize the social and economic condition of Nineteenth-century England which was a result of Industrialization.
As per the question, the portrayal of horses on the wallpaper and the flowers on carpets reflects the author's manner of displaying the absurdity of 'believing that factual accuracy should govern all aspects of life.' <u>The author uses these symbols as tools to present the 'mechanization' that has been involved in the art </u>too and prevents the students from becoming a true artist. <u>He satirizes that this factory-style learning is suppressing the inquisitive and desiring mind</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
Pick up litter and throw it away in a garbage can.
Blow or sweep fertilizer back onto the grass if it gets onto paved areas. Don't put fertilizer on the grass right before it rains. The chemicals will wash into storm drains and waterways.
Mulch or compost grass or yard waste. Or, leave it in your yard if you can't compost. Don't blow leaves into the street. This clogs and damages storm drains.
Wash your car or outdoor equipment where it can flow to a gravel or grassed area instead of a street.
Don't pour your motor oil down the storm drain. Take it to the nearest auto parts store. This is free!
Never clean up a spill by hosing it into a storm drain. Use dry methods like placing kitty litter, sand, or another absorbent on the spill. Once the liquid becomes solid - sweep it up and throw it in a garbage can.
