Answer:
Option D. To comment about an issue facing society
Explanation:
There are many definitions of theme. But most of them have most of the point common.
Theme may be defined as "It is deeper meaning of the story running beneath the surface meaning of the story/poetry etc. I helps reader understand the deeper meaning of the story and understand some aspects of human conditions"
Literature has always been considered mirror of life - it reflects our society either directly (Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales) or indirectly (Keats' "The Fall of Hyperion: A Dream). So in most cases the purpose of the theme of a literary work is to comment about an issue faced by society.
Option A is not correct because main element of theme's definition is missing in it i.e human conditions, society.
Option B is not correct also because elements of mystery and surprise are not integral parts of a literary work, while theme is an integral part.
Option C is also not correct: There's no doubt that author's life experiences shape his/her style of writing and the themes he or she chooses for his/her work. But theme is not just about author's life experiences - it is about society's life experiences.
Answer:
The correct option is a. 26³*21
Explanation:
The question states that the last of the four letters must be a consonant and we have a total of 21 consonants (26 - 5) out of the 26 letters in the alphabets. So, we have a possibility of 21 letters that can be placed at the fourth position.
The remaining three positions of the 4-letter initial can be a combination of all the 26 alphabets which means we have a possibility of 26 letters for each of the first 3 positions.
The number of distinct 4-letter initials that can be formed are:
26 x 26 x 26 x 21
= 26³ x 21
Note: The question doesn’t specify that the letters used in the combination must be distinct hence we have considered all 26 alphabets to be placed at the first three positions.
