EFFECT OF GROWING LOADSHEDDING ON STUDENTS.
Dear Mr. Adam, recently, there have been an increase in loadshedding which initially was supposed to be a one-time thing but has turned out to be frequent.
This growing loadshedding is affecting students because we don't have electricity to even study and do homeworks, research or class projects.
This has also affected the WiFi as when the electricity is out, the WiFi becomes unstable and downright unusable.
There has also been an increase in discomfort among the students as this has led to sleep disruptions especially as this is done at the height of summer when the air conditioning is most needed.
Please, I want you to bring this problem to the mass media so a solution will be provided. Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Charlie Adam.

Answer:
The sentence which could effectively be placed in a summary of Chapter 4 of Wheels of Change because it expresses a key idea objectively is:
A. In the 1880s and 1890s, female bicycle racers faced a variety of opponents, including males, horses, and an occasional dog.
Explanation:
Among the options provided, letter A is the only presenting information objectively, that is, without the interference of opinions, feelings, or biases the author may have. That is not the case with the other options. Option B speaks of doing something "foolishly"; option C speaks of preference and of "kind people"; and option D speaks of supporting those woman because of their bravery. Thus, options B, C and D express opinions and feelings, which are completely subjective.
Answer:
A. The fakir's prediction that anyone who interferes with fate will be sorry.
Explanation:
W. W. Jacobs' short story <em>"The Monkey's Paw"</em> revolves around the theme of superstitious beliefs emanating from an ancient relic called <em>"the paw"</em> from India. This piece of the animal body seemed to have the ability to grant any wish that its owner might have, much like the fairy-tale story of Aladdin and the genie in the lamp.
Foreshadowing provides a sense of knowing something before it happens. This allows a writer to provide hints that will be about what will happen in the coming scenes. And in this story, foreshadowing is clearly seen in the Sergeant-Major's words when he mentions about the fakir's warning of how <em>"fate ruled people's lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow"</em>. This seems to be true, for the first owner's third wish was death and that was how the 'thing' came to be in the possession of the Sergeant-Major. And this warning <em><u>foreshadows how Herbert White will wish for £200 which will lead to the unfortunate death of his son and the said amount being given as compensation.
</u></em>
