Answer:
In <em>Cry, the Beloved Country</em> written Alan Paton tells us about a family Kumalo that represents an average black family from South Africa. Their village Ndotsheni is poor and has not so developed agricultural side, so most of the people go to Johannesburg in order to find a job and earn for a living. Several members of the Kumalo family moved to the city and all of them took the morally wrong path living an indecent life.
<em>In contrast to filthy Ndotsheni where black people live and struggle with poverty, there is High Place up on the hill - a beautiful farm that belongs to a wealthy white man Jarvis where his family lives peacefully and like in a paradise</em>. So, two completely different worlds coexist one beside another and their paths finally directly cross at the end of the novel where Jarvis sends milk to children living in Ndotsheni, though characters of the story meet a lot earlier.
I read Ted Chiang’s excerpt “EXHALATION” and the correct answer would be D, <u><em>“IT CREATES A FEELING OF HOPE AND PERSONAL REFLECTION”.</em></u> The whole excerpt is talking about life in a scientific way, it’s trying to make the reader to have a vision about some scientific facts about our organism.
The excerpt states 2 theories. The first one is about our memories and that the things that we forget are indeed gone forever and there is nothing we can do to have them back. And the second one is about contrasting reality vs science.
