Gnoma [55]

Answer:

1. b. students,

2. c. .

3. b. .

4. c. ?

5. a. Ted and Janice, who had been friends for years, went on vacation together every summer.

6. a. everybody’s surprise

7. a. short story, “The Tell-Tale Heart,”

8. d. but-an eyesore

9. b. “sale,”

10. c. “Leinengen versus the Ants,”

Explanation:

1. All of the people at the school, including the teachers and b. students, were glad when summer break came.

The use of "students," ends the dependent clause.

2. Sit up straight c. .

The sentence is a simple statement so ends with a full-stop.

3. They asked what time the department store would open b. .

It is a simple statement so ends with a full-stop.

4. Who do you think will win the contest c. ?

A question, so ends with a question mark.

5. Choose the sentence below with the correct punctuation.

a. Ted and Janice, who had been friends for years, went on vacation together every summer.

The use of the comma before and after the dependent clause provides an added information to Ted and Janice.

6. To a. everybody’s surprise, Anne was on time for her math class.

Everybody is already a plural, so the apostrophe comes before the "s".

7. In Edgar Allen Poe’s a. short story, “The Tell-Tale Heart,” Edgar Allen Poe describes a man with a guilty conscience.

The name of the short story must be written within quotation marks, and the use of the "," after "short story" provides an introduction or detail of the work that is talked about.

8. Billboards are considered an important part of advertising for big business, d. but-an eyesore by their critics.

The use of "-" shows the connection of the two words in the sentence.

9. I can never remember how to use those two common words, “sell,” meaning to trade a product for money, or b. “sale,” meaning an event where products are traded for less money than usual.

Putting the word "sale" in between quotation marks provides the same intention of the specific word that is dealt with.

10. The class just finished reading c. “Leinengen versus the Ants,” a short story by Carl Stephenson about a plantation owner’s battle with army ants.

Names of books are to be put within quotation marks/ inverted commas.

A conflict in "Like the Sun" is that the protagonist, Sekhar, does not want to hurt people’s feelings even though he is resolved

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The evidence that highlights this conflict is:

b. Sekhar felt greatest pity for him. But he felt he could not help it. No judge delivering a sentence felt more pained and helpless.

d. Two casualties for today, Sekhar said to himself. If I practice it for a week, I don’t think I shall have a single friend left.

Explanation:

As was stated in the question, the conflict in "Like the Sun", by R. K. Narayan, is the fact that Sekhar does not want to hurt people's feelings, but he has decided to tell only the truth for a whole day. Therefore, he knows very well he will end up hurting others. He sticks to his plan and only says what he truly thinks. However, that does not happen without discomfort or pain. He feels for the others, he knows he is insulting them.

The headmaster of the school where Sekhar teaches becomes vindictive after being told his pursuit of music should not go on. Sekhar makes it very clear that he is a terrible singer, but does so with great pain:

Sekhar felt greatest pity for him. But he felt he could not help it. No judge delivering a sentence felt more pained and helpless.

Upon arriving home, Sekhar's wife is sullen after having been told her food tasted bad in the morning. Sekhar confirms what he already had predicted - that telling the truth brings problems in social life since people do not really want to hear it:

Two casualties for today, Sekhar said to himself. If I practice it for a week, I don’t think I shall have a single friend left.

To him, facing the truth is like staring at the sun: no one can really do it.
