In the rising action of <em>Nectar in a Sieve</em>, we are already familiar with the two main characters that were introduced to us in the exposition: Nathan and Rukmani. The two are married and trying to conceive.

Rukmani falls pregnant, and the baby is a girl. Rukmani is very sad, as they were both hoping for a boy. However, the couple name the baby Irawaddy. Eevn though she is a girl, she is loved by her parents. She is beautiful and energetic. However, after six years, Rukmani appears to be unable to conceive another baby.

She worries about this until she meets a doctor named Kenny, who is a foreigner. He is able to help her with her problems, and soon Rukmani gives birth to a boy. Everyone is overjoyed, especially Nathan and Rukmani's father. She ends up having another four boys in a row.

The village also changes because of the construction of a tannery. This brings new people, and with them, new economic activities. However, it also brings a variety of problems. Rukmani resents this, and dislikes the tannery.

natulia [17]

Answer: C. She is curious and independent.

Based on this description, Mary seems to be a curious girl, as she wants to find out the source of the crying noise. She also appears to be independent because she is making decisions that are different from those that are suggested to her.

We cannot assume she is disobedient and rebellious because we do not know whether looking for the source of the noise was prohibited. Perhaps she was told to ignore it as an advice, not as an order. She is also not afraid as she goes investigating on her own. Finally, there is no indication of the noise being at night, or of it having any impact on her sleep.

Shelia E. is a singer and plays the drums. Which error is made in the above sentence? A. coordinating excessively B. lacking par
viva [34]

Answer:

B. lacking parallelism

Explanation:

The original sentence contains a predicate nominative (<em>singer</em>) and an action verb (<em>plays</em>), which shows lack of parallelism.

The best way to fix the error would be to use a parallel structure, which is the repetition of a certain grammatical form within a sentence:

"Shelia E. <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> the drums."  

Now the sentence uses two action verbs <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> in the present tense, and this is an example of parallelism.

One of the major criticisms of the Western canon is that it excludes women and people of color. Much work has been
kaheart [24]

being a part of a team in school, could be a lot of fun – for some people at least. let’s say that you, and two other people are put into a group so you can work together on a hard project. everything seems to be fine for the first few minutes of working on the project, then all of a sudden, the two other people start to goof off and refuse to do their part of the project. this leaves you to do all the work by yourself. one time when i went to school, i was put into a group of three. me, and two guys who were clearly best friends. all during the class period, they goofed off instead of me with the project we were all assigned. so, considering they didn’t do anything, i asked if they could bring the poster home and at least color it. the next day of school, they didn’t bring the poster back because he was hanging out with the other person in our group. because of this, we never got the project in on time. this is a disadvantage of working in groups. an advantage of working in groups is that if you and the others are dedicated to your work, you could share ideas, you can plan and manage time more, you can all have your own parts to work on which with time management, and you also develop stronger communication skills.not only that, but you can also share diverse perspectives, work on hard problems together to get the correct answer, find different ways to complete the project on time, and you can make friends at the same time. in my opinion, i prefer to work in groups if it’s a long and hard project just because it complete the project on time, and in a good and effective manner. however, if it’s just a simple paper that i have to do on a topic i know a lot about, then i prefer to work by myself just to save time and prevent any mishaps.
