This question is regarding "Rules of the Game" by Amy Tan. From the passages about "invisible strength" and Waverly's mother stating that the "strongest wind cannot be seen we can infer that Waverly's mother values strength that can be found in restraint and silence. This can be seen when Waverly cries for candy at the candy store and her mother tells her to "bite her tongue". That time she doesn't get the candy, but the next time they go to the candy store Waverly stays quiet and receives candy. This is the mother's way of rewarding her for staying silent.
The number 3 is everywhere in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy<span>. For one thing, the poem itself is structured according to the rhyme scheme terza rima, which uses stanzas of three lines that employ interlocking rhymes (aba bcb cdc, etc.). Additionally, there are nine circles of Hell (three multiplied by three), Satan has three faces, and three beasts (a lion, a leopard, and a wolf) threaten Dante at the beginning of the Inferno. There are many more examples of three, but the overall important thing to understand is that the number three largely governs the structure of Dante's poem. Indeed, you can think of the number three as the scaffolding on which the rest of the poem's content is hung. This number is significant because three is a central number in the Judaeo-Christian tradition, especially in terms of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). As such, just as the whole of the Christian world is governed by a three-in-one God, Dante's poem is governed by the number three. Thus, Dante's obsession with the number three mirrors the prevalence of three in the Christian tradition. </span><span />
Answer:
The Welfare people made constant visits to the family home and look at them as if they are inferior to them. They also present Mrs. Little of being insane and admitted to a psychiatric hospital.
Explanation:
"The Autobiography of Malcolm X" by Malcolm X and Alex Haley was a book that details the life of Malcolm Little from his childhood till his later years. The book became one of the most read and the most sought non-fictional book of all times.
Even though it was a product of Haley's interview with Malcolm, the book was directly addressed to the readers making it easily relatable to them. In chapter I of the book, Malcolm mentions one instance when the State Welfare people used to visit their home. He remembered how they looked at them "<em>in a way that had about it the feeling-at least for me-that we were not people. In their eyesight we were just _things_, that was all</em>". He also stated "<em>acted as if they owned us, as if we were their private property</em>."
After their mother, he became the target of the Welfare people due to his stealing. They also reported to the government that their mother Mrs. Little "<em>was losing their mind</em>". All of these acts by the Welfare people made their life miserable.
The State does not continue to do so as most of the Welfare organisations/ people are more sympathetic to the cause of the welfare of the people.
