Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

"The Gifts of Feodor Himkoff", is a very heart touching story by Arthur Quiller. It is narrated in the first person. The narrator is a frequent visitor to a coastal area called Zoze Point. It is a difficult place to reach. He recalls of one of his visits in cold December.  

He had been walking continuously for four days and was totally worn out. He wanted a cup of warm milk to keep him alive when he chanced upon a small cottage with a fire burning. As he knocked at the door shyly he was greeted by a poorly clad old lady. The woman invited him inside and offered him a cup of tea. There was an old deaf man slouched in a chair. He was Isaac, the woman’s ailing husband.

The woman served him a very high quality tea complemented with rich dainties. When the narrator asked from where the gourmet came she narrated the story of the gifts of Feodor Himkoff.

Long ago Isaac had lost his only son. He was a soldier brutally killed by the Russians. Ever since, Isaac had vowed that he would slew every Russian he saw to avenge his son’s death. Some years later a Russian soldier with the middle finger of his hand missing, had knocked at his door in search of shelter. He and fifteen soldiers were badly injured and had been shipwrecked. Isaac cruelly refused shelter and all the Russians perished. Next day onwards Isaac went to the shore and buried the bodies that floated ashore.

A few years letter Feodor Himkoff, the brother of the soldier with the missing finger came to meet Isaac. He had come to thank him for giving his brother and his crew a peaceful burial. Ever since he had been sending the rich gifts to Isaac. As a deed of redemption Isaac and his wife did not touch the gifts but served them to all the weary travellers who sought shelter in their warm cottage. They no longer refused any one shelter.

Semmy [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>B. The author explains the source of tension between rival groups. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is evident in the article that peace implementation strategies have been one of the difficult decisions to tackle. The lack of momentum and peace agreement meetings threatens transitional government formation. The peacemaking process always faces challenges in the country. However, it was Troika who asked the Sudanese government to come into an agreement to increase their efforts and handle the most pressing issues and create unity by creating agreement on the reforms through the mobilization of support from other parts of Sudan.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Hay Fever was a comical play with a strong message. The actors throughout this play steadily used others to gain their own attention. The message this play left behind after many laughs was do not use others, plain and simple.

The space was a well-constructed thrust stage however, the stage was not raised off the ground and the seats appeared to be mobile which lead to the belief that this is an Environmental Theater. As for the layout of the stage, there was a couch and a table in center stage for the first two acts, a door to the unseen outside front of the house upstage right, there were two large double doors upstage center leading to the backyard garden, and a raised floor upstage left containing a piano, a bookcase and a door leading to the home library. Stage left there was a half spiral staircase that lead up to the second floor which had a painting and lights that extended across to stage right.

The second floor also contained the bedrooms for the house but the doors were not in sight. The detail was greater than expected: the hardwood floor throughout the first floor seemed to be genuine, the actual bookcase filled with real books not stage books, and the extremely large double doors with translucent glass and floral designs lead to the Garden, which featured an array of plants behind the doors.

The entire space was well lit for the duration of the play; the stage took place inside the Bliss’ home so the bright lighting added a confortable feel to the inside of the house. The theatre was nearly sold out; it was hard to spot an empty seat, including the balcony and lower level seating. The crowd contained nearly an even amount of student audience members and senior citizens; there was few in the audience that appeared middle aged.

The play was well cast, the entire Bliss family did a great job showing how overly dramatic and deceitful the family had become. Each actor portrayed their character accurately; there were no standouts that didn’t match the character. Each visitor in the first act seemed to be feasible as far as the possibility of a relationship was concerned. All of the family members acted genuine.

THE END.
