Answer:

A. There is no sense dreaming about the future when you are unhappy.

Explanation:

Maya Angelou's biographical memoir "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings" is a story of her childhood strife with racism, her journey to self-acceptance, and freedom. This book deals with the life of a black girl amidst the racism and the importance of education and getting to know one's true ability and worth.

Maya's experiences during her childhood had always been about how she was perceived as a child, along with the trauma of being raped and racially discriminated. But with the emergence of Mrs. Bertha Flowers, she was given a lease of new life when she (Mrs. Flowers) taught her how to read and write. And the metaphorical image of the caged bird trying to escape her cage is that of Maya herself who wishes to escape the restraints of her life and do what she loves, be free of her confinement and discrimination from racism as a black girl growing up in America. And through her childhood experiences, <u>one main theme that she alludes or refers to is the importance of happiness in dreaming about one's future. </u>

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Having just been hit by a car, I rushed over to see if Gunther was still breathing.

kow [346]

The sentence contains misplaced modifier.

According to the sentence, the one got hit by the car was Gunther. However, putting "I" as the subject of this sentence means that "I" was the one got hit. ("Having just been hit by a car" and "rushed over..." were done by the same person - "I")

So that, this sentence should be corrected, the following is an example:

<em>"Gunther had just been hit by a car, I rushed over to see if he was breathing."</em>

Make a diary

Answer:

Diary entry recording an experience after visiting a traditional village fair.

Explanation:

12 October 2019

Saturday

Dear Diary,

Once, our whole family had gone on a vacation to the northeast states. And on one occasion, my father took me and my younger sister to a traditional village fair which was our very first experience attending any such fairs. It was more than I had imagined. The whole ground was full of people moving along, with stalls erected in all corners. The stalls have toys, food, clothing, necessities, and even handmade bamboo products. While the fun and activities part was on another side of the huge ground, I was more into the crafts and wooden products. I asked around for the price, thinking that they'll be too costly and I wouldn't probably have it in me to buy them. But to my surprise, they were so cheap, compared to how things are in my home city of Delhi. I asked my father to buy me so many things that I had to make choices.

Moreover, the one most surprising thing was the friendliness and openness of the village people in helping others, even strangers. They knew we were from out of town and made sure that we are safe, and immediately tried their best to help, even by the old women who couldn't speak English. While their native language was foreign to us, that did not stop them from voicing their concern.

My sister got so many traditional dolls, toys, and other art crafts. I think this was the one time we got ourselves so many things. But it was such a wonderful experience being there, and I don't regret ever spending time or money there.

I only hope I can go there again next year.

Here's hoping for that.

Love,

Sneha.

(2) No national court system was established to protect the rights of U.S. citizens.

(3) No executive branch was established to enforce laws.

(4) Congress had no power to print money, therefore each state developed its own

currency.

(5) Congress was unable to impose taxes; it could only borrow money on credit.
