My dear uncle,

I know this must be a hard time for you to even listen to anyone but I request you to kindly hear out what I am about to say. I hope you will not stop reading until you reach the last word, and maybe it will help you clear your mind, even if only a bit.

I have heard of my cousin’s pregnancy and I also know it must have been a shock and even an embarrassing situation. But I can say that it is not an embarrassing situation nor is it something to be ashamed about. Of course, getting pregnant that young is something unthinkable and also unaccepted by her but whatever's happened is done. We can't change anything nor can we just regret and wish time goes back. What we need now is to move forward and find the best solution for everyone involved.

I know your first reaction must have been of shock and anger at her but driving her out of the house won't help. It will only drive a deeper gap between the two of you and she will feel abandoned when she needed to support the most. It will obviously be scary enough for her, and added to that, her family's deserting her. The only people supposed to support her are the ones turning her away, which will be heartbreaking. Please, make sure that she doesn’t feel rejected and unloved when she needed love and support from the people she love the most. You are and will always be family to each other and nothing can change that, even if you kick her out of the house or disown her. She has your blood and she’’ always be your family no matter what happens.

But Uncle, let's think reasonably. If you take her, assure her and stand by her side, she will find it even more comforting and loved. She will know the depth of your love for her and she will learn a valuable lesson of how a parent is at times like this. Your actions will be the precedent for her future relationship with her child. Moreover, when people will criticize her, having you by her side will ensure and comfort her in knowing that she has all she needs to be safe and happy. She will rediscover the value of family and you will also gain a grandchild.

Uncle, it is my hope and prayer that you do not reject her but rather, be accepting of her and forgive her. She's just a child who needs her parents to help her guide at this difficult time. So, please, be there for her and her child.

I will be waiting for better news from you and will visit as soon as I can.

Lots of love,

Brenda.

A remark spoken in an undertone by one character either to the audience or to another character, which the remaining character s

balandron [24]

Select the correct text in the passage.Which sentences in this excerpt from Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Contest" suggest that the author’s tone is mocking?The blue-clad player struck several chords upon his lyre, and then burst suddenly out into the “Ode of Niobe.” Policles sat straight up on his bench and gazed at the stage in amazement. The tune demanded a rapid transition from a low note to a high, and had been purposely chosen for this reason. The low note was a grunting, a rumble, the deep discordant growling of an ill-conditioned dog. Then suddenly the singer threw up his face, straightened his tubby figure, rose upon his tiptoes, and with wagging head and scarlet cheeks emitted such a howl as the same dog might have given had his growl been checked by a kick from his master. All the while the lyre twanged and thrummed, sometimes in front of and sometimes behind the voice of the singer. But what amazed Policles most of all was the effect of this performance upon the audience. Every Greek was a trained critic, and as unsparing in his hisses as he was lavish in his applause. Many a singer far better than this absurd fop had been driven amid execration and abuse from the platform.
