The above are the TWO statements describe the main themes in the story of Daughter of Invention.
"Daughter of Invention" is a story by J. Alvarez. As selected in the above, option A is a statement that talks about freedom which is one of the main themes of the story. Cukita, the main character in the story was told to write an address for the Teacher's Day. She wrote and showed her mother who was impressed by the writing. But when they took it to her father, he tore it and was not in support of the writing. Cukita's freedom to express herself through her writing was valued and appreciated by her mother but was discouraged by her father. Her father discouraged it because he feared that it might cause problem when the teachers read the address.
But despite her father's reaction, Cukita was encouraged by her mother to take the risk and write another one which she did with the help of her mother. The second address she later wrong was successful when she read it to during the Teacher's day. She was not afraid to take risk.
Her father later apologized and even bought her a typewriter.
Answer:We don’t use this much nowadays — dictionaries usually tag it as archaic or literary — except in the set phrase make the welkin ring, meaning to make a very loud sound.
What supposedly rings in this situation is the vault of heaven, the bowl of the sky, the firmament. In older cosmology this was thought to be one of a set of real crystal spheres that enclosed the Earth, to which the planets and stars were attached, so it would have been capable of ringing like a bell if you made enough noise.
The word comes from the Old English wolcen, a cloud, related to the Dutch wolk and German Wolke. Very early on, for example in the epic poem Beowulf of about the eighth century AD, the phrase under wolcen meant under the sky or under heaven (the bard used the plural, wolcnum, but it’s the same word). Ever since, it has had a strong literary or poetic connection.
It appears often in Shakespeare and also in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales: “This day in mirth and revel to dispend, / Till on the welkin shone the starres bright”. In 1739, a book with the title Hymns and Sacred Poems introduced one for Christmas written by Charles Wesley that began: “Hark! how all the welkin rings, / Glory to the King of kings”. If that seems a little familiar, it is because 15 years later it reappeared as “Hark! the herald-angels sing / Glory to the new born king”.

Answer:
Every year hundreds of grade school students converge on Washington, D.C., for the annual Scripps National Spelling Bee. The “bee” is an elite event in which children as young as 8 years old compete to spell words like “cymotrichous” and “appoggiatura.” Most people who watch the spelling bee think of these kids as being “smart.”
What makes a person intelligent? Is it heredity (two of the 2014 contestants in the National Spelling Bee have siblings who have previously won) (National Spelling Bee, 2014a)? Is it interest (the most frequently listed favorite subject among spelling bee competitors is math)(NSB, 2014b)?
