Answer:

The answer is that his son has been caught smoking.

Explanation:

Yevgeny's problem is that his seven year old son has been caught smoking tobacco by the governess, and , what's more, the son actually stole the tobacco rom Yevgeny's desk.

Yevgeny's wife, the boy's mother, has died, and he regrets that he really has no notion of how o speak to the child about the smoking, he does not think that smoking is all that bad as an habit after all he does it himself, and he does not know how to impress upon the child the seriousness of lying about that kinda behavior.

"Yevgeny Petrovitch finds it as strange and absurd that he, an experienced advocate, who spent half of his life in the practice of reducing people to silence, forestalling what they had to say, and punishing them, was completely at a loss and did not know what to say to the boy."

KiRa [710]

Answer:

As no options were given to choose from, I would go ahead to explain the words and then suggest another word pair which is Exasperate : Calm

liq [111]

After reading the instructions, we can identify the independent, dependent, and control variables as the following:

1. Independent variable: The two types of fertilizers that will be used.

2. Dependent variable: How fast the plants will grow with each fertilizer.

3. Control variable: The plants that will not have any fertilizer added to them.

  • When conducting an experiment such as the one described in the question, we are looking for the relationship between two things.
  • In this case, we want to see if and how the fertilizers affect the plants' growth.
  • The independent variable is the factor we change in order to affect something. Here, it is the use of fertilizers.
  • The dependent variable is the thing affected by the independent variable. Here, it is the plants' growth.
  • To make sure that the independent variable is affecting the dependent one, we need a control variable.
  • In this case, we would select a few plants to not receive any fertilizer. That way, we can compare the plants and see if the fertilizer is making any difference.

Focusing on the last three paragraphs of the story, analyze Jung-mei's tone(s) by examining imagery and figurative language. Exp
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

please give ME BRAINLIEST answer

Explanation:

For Chinese people, it is very important to be better than your colleagues, to be respected and to make sure you are not disgraced in the social nets. In order to achieve this, children should study hard to be the best they can be. However, for most Americans it is the opposite, they do not feel disgraced if they are not the best. Obviously, in “Two Kinds”, the conflicts between Jing-mei and her mother are partially because the intense relationship between them, which comes from her wishing her daughter would live her dream. The reason why Jing-mei’s mother is asking her to play piano is her mother wants her to beat Auntie Lindo’s daughter in the field of music. If Jing-mei cannot do this, her mother would feel disgraced, because Auntie Lindo’s daughter is good at playing chess, who gains a certain amount of fame as “Chinatown’s littlest Chinese Chess Champion. In the story, Jing-mei’s mother told her “Of course you can be prodigy, too. You can be best anything. What does Auntie Lindo know? Her daughter, she is only best tricky” (454). Jing-mei’s mother thought Jing-mei can be prodigy if you give her proper guidance. She thought Jing-mei can be the best while actually Jing-mei does not have such talent. In fact, Jing-mei did very badly on the talent show of the Chinatown, and eventually she …show more content…

It is different from cultural conflict, but is a more common reason. In the story, Jing-mei’s mother seldom has effective communication with her daughter, because she does everything in her own way and never stands in Jing-mei’s point of view. Jing-mei does not want to do the tests, but she dares not to tell her mother about this. She lets her mother give up on her by paying no interest in the tests. “I pretended to be bored. And I was. I got so bored … At last she was beginning to give up hope” (456). This indicates that they have a big generation gap; Jing-mei never tells her mother her real thoughts because her mother has never talked to her heart to heart. Even though her mother has become a citizen of the United States, her thought is still rooted in traditional dogmatic Chinese culture. In her mind, Jing-mei should always be obedient. And even if Jing-mei did so, the generation gap between them can only be bigger. According to the story, at first Jing-mei tries to be obedient, she tries to play piano every day. But eventually, all her feelings are that her mother does not care about her at all. Her mother forced her to do so even though she does not like it. Her anger accumulates one day after another which enlarges the generation gap between them and finally it breaks
