I don't think Ravi felt isolated. I think he was bored, and he didn't think the game was very interesting. Like he wanted to hid
torisob [31]

Answer and Explanation:

Do you agree or disagree with this point of view?

I disagree with this point of view.

Find evidence from the story to support or refute the student's claim. In your response, clarify why you agree or disagree with the student's thoughts.

Ravi is a character in the short story "Games at Twilight", by Anita Desai. He and his siblings are playing hide-and-seek when he decides to hide in the shed where old furniture and broken things are kept. Ravi is excited about the idea of winning the game. He is motivated by picturing himself as a champion who got to win over older, smarter kids. After hiding for hours, he comes out and runs to the "den" to become the desperate winner of a game that had been long over. His siblings had forgotten about him.

Upon this awful realization, Ravi feels completely isolated. He is obviously a young child who is still insecure about his place in the world. That's why he is so desperate to win - to prove something to himself and others. But the fact that he was forgotten is utterly disappointing and hurtful. He does not feel included; he does not want to be included anymore:

<em>And the arc of thin arms trembled in the twilight, and the heads were bowed so sadly, and their feet tramped to that melancholy refrain so mournfully, so helplessly, that </em><u><em>Ravi could not bear it. He would not follow them, he would not be included in this funereal game. He had wanted victory and triumph—not a funeral. But he had been forgotten, left out, and he would not join them now. The ignominy of being forgotten—how could he face it? He felt his heart go heavy and ache inside him unbearably. He lay down full length on the damp grass, crushing his face into it, no longer crying, silenced by a terrible sense of his insignificance.</em></u>

Do you believe that gothic stories can be just as impactful as other types of literature? Why or why not?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer: yes

Explanation: The goal of gothic writing was, and still is, to amuse readers and encourage self-improvement. Dark romanticism often features a lonely setting, a ghost or spirit, the usage of symbols, and a fatal illness or mental illness as the cause of death.

Which sentence is written in passive voice? As I said these words I busied myself among the pile of bones of which I have before
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

It seemed to have been constructed for no special use within itself…

Explanation:

There are two types of voices when it comes to the English grammar and these are the <em>"passive voice</em>" and the<em> "active voice."</em>

"Passive voice" means that<u> the recipient of the verb's action is the</u><u> "subject."</u> This is opposite to that of the active voice wherein <u>the subject is the one which acts upon its verb.</u>

The subject above is "It" and it is the recipient of the verb "have been constructed."

So, this explains the answer.
