Answer:

The first boy mentioned in the chapter is Saheb-E-Alam. He was a rag-picker who lived in Seemapuri. His family had migrated from Dhaka, Bangla Desh to India in 1971 with the hope of finding better life conditions. Every morning he roamed about streets collecting garbage. Many other boys also accompanied him. His family lived in miserable conditions. He could not afford to go to school. He did not have even a pair of slippers to wear. He wished to play lawn tennis which was beyond his reach. He also found a job at a tea-stall where he ran various errands for the tea-stall owner. Though he earned rupees eight hundred monthly along with meals every day, yet he was not happy working there.

His rag-picking bag was lighter than the

canister. He was his own master; but now

he had to work under someone

The second boy mentioned in the chapter is Mukesh. His family lived in Firozabad. Mukesh's family was trapped in this vicious circle. In fact every family involved in the bangle making is trapped in a vicious circle of the shahukars, the middlemen, the policemen, the keepers of law, the bureaucrats and the politicians. Their evil nexus did not let them be free. Approximately 20,000 children worked in the glass furnaces with high temperatures, in dingy cells without air and light, often losing the brightness of their eyes. Thus the bangle-makers of Firozabad lived in a state of perpetual poverty and exploitation.

Throughout All Summer in a Day." Bradbury compares the children to wheels and tumbling spokes
victus00 [196]

Answer:

C) He slows the action to show how the children feel as they realize Margot is  still in the closet.

Explanation:

In Ray Bradbury's short science fictional story "Throughout All Summer In A Day", the story revolves around the time when it has been raining for seven years on the planet Venus. the sun shines only for a couple hours and then rain started again, which is like a normal thing for the people on that planet.

At the start of the story, the author describes the children as<em> "animals escaped from their caves"</em> and <em>"wheels, all tumbling spokes"</em>. This is to show how energetic and restless they are, and their excitement in seeing the sun. But then, his narrative changed, describing them standing <em>"as if someone had driven them, like so  many stakes, into the floor."</em> This is after their realization that they have left Margot locked up the whole time they were enjoying the sunlight. This change in the way the author describes them shows the more slower scene of their realization, the feeling of remorse they have n their action.

Graham clearly states that he wants to listen to his own intuition and do things that are, according to his opinion, correct, without thinking what other people would say or think about it.
