Answer:

The mistake committed by Darzee's wife in the story was jumping in front of Nagina and feign an injury on the wings. This task was meant to be done by Darzee, but he was too feather-brained to do this.

The consequence of this mistake was Rikki-Tikki-Tavi was able to give a tough fight to Nagina and defeat her.

Explanation:

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is a short story written by Rudyard Kipling. The story is about a young mongoose, who combats with Nag and his wife, Nagina and defeat them successfully.

In the story, when Rikki-Tikki-Tavi asks Darzee for help, Darzee, being too feather-brained hesitate to do it. Darzee's wife knew that Nag's eggs would mean more snakes in the garden, so she quickly flung herself before Nagina feigning her injury on the wings. Though it was a mistake by Darzee's wife but it helped Rikki-Tikki-Tavi to defeat the snake family.

The result of this mistake was that Rikki-Tikki-Tavi was able to destroy Nagina's egg and present a choice before her either to choose her baby or hurt Teddy.

This move helped Rikki-Tikki-Tavi to kill Nagina and her family.

Which is a minor theme in “the land”
azamat

Answer:

Education can counter inequality.

Explanation:

Mildred D. Taylor's "The Land" revolves around the life of Edward Paul-Logan, a mixed child of a white father and a black woman. Narrated from the perspective of Paul, the plot continues to follow Paul through his childhood as a mix-raced child, and his relationship with everyone, including Mitchell, the son of his father's worker.

While the whole of the story's main theme rests on the issue of inequality, especially between the whites and the blacks, it also deals a lot with friendship, loyalty, and family. And <u>one minor theme that can also be found in the novel is that of education as a means to counter inequality</u>. This is evident in both Paul and his friend Mitchell, who made promises to teach each other what they know- Paul will teach Mitchell how to read and write while Mitchell will, in turn, teach Paul how to fight and fend for himself. This way, both characters exhibit the theme of education as a means to counter inequality among themselves.
