Answer:

To ask for a gift, such as rain, from nature.

Explanation:

The song "Twelfth Song of Thunder" is a Navajo song celebrating the sky, the land, and everything about the earth. It is also chanted during the Navajo Mountain Chant ceremony/ ritual.

This chant/ song is sung as a prayer to please the gods and ask for their blessings. It asks for a gift of nature, more specifically the rains which they require for their plants. For them, nature and depending on the divine was everything, with their livelihood depending on the providence of the gods.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the last option. </u>

Explanation:

<u>D.</u> To ask for a gift, such as rain, from nature.

Answer:

Well the Navajo people are obsessed with the elegance of nature and the poem talks about the voice above and the voice below blessing their nature and they dance for prayers asking for things like rain though, this may seem more like gods than nature, option d. is still the best choice.

galina1969 [7]

The excerpts from "The Storyteller" which indicate that the aunt is unaware of her flaws begin with "It's a very difficult thing..." and "A most improper..."

<h3>What happens in "The Storyteller"?</h3>

In "The Storyteller," by Saki:

  • An aunt and her nieces and nephew travel by train.
  • A bachelor is in the same carriage as they are.
  • The aunt tries to keep the children quiet.
  • She tells them a story with a moral lesson at the end.
  • The bachelor tells them another story, which contradicts the moral lesson.
  • The aunt is furious at the bachelor.

The aunt in "The Storyteller" is unaware of her flaws. She does not understand that, to keep the children quiet, she must find ways to entertain them. That is precisely what the bachelor does.

The aunt complains that it is difficult to tell children stories. However, she also criticizes the bachelor's story, saying it is improper. She does not admit that the bachelor told a better story than she did.
