Answer:
Rodion is poverty stricken for the narrator tells us that he was in huge debt to his landlady, dressed shabbily and that he was 'crushed by poverty'.
He did not have a care about his looks for his heart was full of hatred and spiteful contempt for the outside world.
Explanation:
The character of Rodion is from Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment". He is shown as a poor ex- law student in need of money who commits a crime t fund his educational purposes.
We can know Rodion is "<em>poverty stricken</em>" by the way the writer had written in the very first chapter of the book. The narrator states "<em>He was hopelessly in debt to his landlady</em>" and that "<em>He was crushed by poverty</em>". Such was his condition, which we again see in the later lines "<em>He was so badly dressed that even a man accustomed to shabbiness would have been ashamed to be seen in the street in such rags</em>".
He wasn't bothered at all to wear his shabby clothes outside as he has too much of contempt and spite for the outside world. The narrator tells us that he had "<em>accumulated bitterness and contempt in the young man’s heart, that, in spite of all the fastidiousness of youth, he minded his rags least of all in the street</em>".
An example of such author can be Benjamin Franklin. He was widely read by people throughout the colonies and his Poor Richard's Almanacs were a common household items. His audience were the common people and his purpose was to educate them and help people become better. Hi style was simple and direct, often full of word plays and funny anecdotes.
The first sentence is correct and the second sentence is a fragment.
College seems to be an important part of our lives nowadays. There may be people around us who probably have never attended university but have achieved success anyway. As an example of this, we can mention Leonel Messi who is one of the most famous footballers in the world but has never attended college before. However, college might be really helpful sometimes. It helps us to open our eyes and to see the different paths we can choose and it also helps us to prepare our minds and body in a professional way. We are helped by teachers and experts on every field so we are given the opportunity to know their experiences and to avoid their own mistakes. It is obvious that experience will also play a role in our professional careers as athletes, but college might also be a excellent way to start our professional lives as such.
