the red earthenware and the galvanised iron chimneys thrust their cowls. The hoot of the steamers on the Thames is plain.

Answer:

C - By describing how the houses act as barricades

Explanation:

"(...)Solid and square to the world the houses stand, their windows blocked with venetian blinds. Nothing will move them (...)".

"Nothing will move them" means that nothing could ever penetrate those houses. Not the sound of cars nor the voices.

The houses stand alone, solid and square, with windows blocked. You can't get in or out, you are trapped, you are alone.

*Write about a time when someone helped you get better at something you were struggling with. Who helped you? How did they help
aev [14]

Answer:

Life is a constant battle of dealing with a struggle, an addiction, perhaps pressure from so many sides. At some point in my life, I had to deal with at least one of these. Mine was low self-esteem. I had to constantly seek validation from others; despite my intelligence and drive for success. I appreciated the approval of people to run my life. Along life's way, I encountered a lot of people that took advantage of my vulnerability. I came to realize that people you meet always have a role to play in your life. I silently battled with my struggle until I met this individual (Mark), who on one of my insecure days told me that I did well at a particular presentation which seemed not perfect to me.

Unknown to me, he was my new Lecturer. His words meant a lot to me. The words of encouragement was a great deal because it was needed at that time. His words shaped me into a better person because I started to believe in my abilities. His words still resonate in my mind " do not fidget, always keep your chin up, you have got this, you are the best".

The most difficult part of the learning experience was when I failed a subject. I would constantly switch to my former self while trying to be strong. I would cry myself to sleep. I read my books overnight and spent hours in the Library during school hours. I just wanted to be the best. I had to double my efforts when I did not get the grades I wanted. I realized i was very intelligent and that the fears within made me fail so many times.
