Answer:
D. The beauty of the everyday and the importance of small rituals
Explanation:
Making a tee doesn't seem as much of a problem or a task that takes a big effort.
However, in this story, we see this old man passionately and carefully completing this everyday task. He carefully opens his teacups set, carefully calculates the amount of tea needed, peacefully waits for the water to boil, enjoys the smell of the tee and finally shares cup of tea with his wife enjoying in the time they spent together.
This process could've been done in a much faster pace, more hectically, doing something else simultaneously, and the result would've been the same - a cup of tea with his wife.
But, by showing us all these small rituals and careful preparation, this story conveys the importance of enjoying small, everyday things and helps us see the beauty in them.
Epics normally explore the topics of heroic deeds and rewarding adventures. Hope this helps!
Question:
Fernando evaluated the expression below.
What was Fernando's error?
- Fernando evaluated the numerator of the fraction incorrectly.
- Fernando simplified 20/2 incorrectly.
- Fernando incorrectly found the product of –2 and –5.
- Fernando evaluated (-3)² incorrectly.
Answer:
- Fernando incorrectly found the product of –2 and –5.
Explanation:
Given
Required
Spot the error
The error in this evaluation is the product of -2 and -5 at step 2
When a negative number (-2) is multiplied by a negative number (-5), the outcome of the multiplication is always a positive number (10).
So, the result of -2 * -5 is 10 but Fernando incorrectly calculated it as -10.
Solving the expression, correctly
Hence, the actual result of the expression is 29 (not 9 as calculated by Fernando).
Answer:
By using a detached and to-the-point style.
Explanation:
Writing about his experiences in the concentration camp Wiesel used an undercooled detached style that was always to the point, business-like and deprived from emotions. The interesting paradox is that, by doing so, he created the emotional tension that seemed to be detached from the narrator, who speaks in short sentences that convey the moment-by-moment experience in a cold and robot-like manner.
