In the novel “<em>Nectar in a Sieve</em>” by Kamala Markandaya (1954), one of the main themes is the contrast between the tradition (Part 1) and the modern (Part 2), or the rural life and the city life. While <u>Part 1</u> takes place in an unnamed village in rural India, <u>Part 2</u> takes place in an unnamed major city in urban India. The author used imagery throughout the novel in order to call the reader’s attention. This technique is used <u>to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that it appeals to the reader’s physical senses</u>. For example, Markandaya used onomatopoeia together with imagery in the following passage “<em>… a click-clank of stone on stone with intermittent dull explosions</em>”. Water is also an example of imagery in the novel, since the patterns of the rain portray Rukmani’s view of the world and the balance of certainty and uncertainty, the good times and the bad ones. Moreover, water was also an important element in <u>Nathan’s death</u> and <u>for the women</u>.
The correct answer is: Short phrases that make the reader interested.
Some authors recommend the use of short sentences as the genre requires variety and flow to avoid repetition and boredom. In this way the pace of the reading is increased keeping the reader's attention. I read an example that was very helpful, imagine someone that is anxious or scared, when he sepaks he uses few words at a time, forming complex sentences turns difficult. By writing with short sentences you can be able to transmit this kind of emotions in a more effective way. Remember that suspense's objective is to make the reader wonder at all time if the protagonist will overcome the problems presented, the reader must frecuently face uncertainty.
What story, and what excerpt. You should have either attatched a picture or a quote so we could help you .-.
No, I don’t think we should live in space because it is already hard enough to get all the equipment needed for traveling into space. No other planet besides Earth has what we need to survive as humans. There is no water or food on any other planets therefore we would probably starve to death or die of dehydration. Unless you live in a space shuttle for the rest of your life there is really no way of surviving in space.
