Answer:
In at least one hundred words, describe how Kamala Markandaya both draws upon and questions the cultural traditions of India in the early chapters of Nectar in a Sieve.I think she questions the traditions in a couple ways. Firstly when her two eldest sisters are married off, they are given great gifts but when her and her last older sister are married, they are married into a lower social class and recieve little gifts. She also dipises that she came from a wealthy home and married a farmer and many of her relatives call it a disgrace. She questions the traditions when she has a girl first and then does not a have a second (as of chapter 3) so her husband Nathan does not have a son to take care of the land after him.
She does follows the traditions when she does not call her husband by name but only by "husband". This is expected of women no matter the class they are in. In the story she also is married off to man who she doesnt know which is customary to the Indian culture. Lastly, I'd say she does draws upon the way of life there when she helps deliver her neighbor's wife's child.
sorry its kinda long but it is basically what I wrote for my english class.

Please hurry Which of the following best describes the effect the poem's repetition has on its tone?
-A The poem repeats certain phrase structures to strengthen its persuasive tone,
-B The poem repeatedly refers to the colonized people as "heathen" or "children,"
thus contributing to the snobby tone.
-C The poem repeats the phrase "Take up the White Man's burden" and therefore
makes the tone seem bossy and argumentative.
-D The poem repeats the phrase "Take up the White Man's burden" as a sort of call
to action, thus contributing to the encouraging, prideful tone,
Answer:
-D. The poem repeats the phrase "Take up the White Man's burden" as a sort of call to action, thus contributing to the encouraging, prideful tone.
Explanation:
Rudyard Kipling's poem "The White Man's Burden" was written after the Spanish-American War where the US acquired the Philippines. This poem was a sort of call for the "white man", i.e. America, to go and "civilize" the natives, in this case, the people in the Philippines.
Kipling believes that it is up to the American people to go and 'civilize' the other inferior people, just like the British had done to the colonies in America. He repeatedly used the phrase "Take up the White Man's burden" to encourage and call the US to do the job of 'helping' these people. This repetition contributes to encouraging them in doing the 'good deed' but it also contains a prideful tone in that it deemed itself (the US? Americans) as more superior to the newly acquired island.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstacy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire
RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar
But the kasachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son
RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
[Spoken:]
But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
For power became known to more and more people
The demands to do something about this outrageous
Man became louder and louder
"This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies
But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
"Come to visit us" they kept demanding
And he really came
RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said "I feel fine"
RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead
[Spoken:] Oh, those Russians...

Read this excerpt from Chapter X of Alice in Wonderland.
"I don't believe there's an atom of meaning in it," ventured Alice.
"If there's no meaning in it," said the King, "that saves a world of trouble, you know, as we needn't try to find any. Let the jury consider their verdict."
"No, no!" said the Queen. "Sentence first—verdict afterwards."
"Stuff and nonsense!" said Alice loudly. "The idea of having the sentence first!"
"Hold your tongue!" said the Queen, turning purple. . . .
"Who cares for you?" said Alice (she had grown to her full size by this time). "You're nothing but a pack of cards!"

Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective."
Diane stood in front of a mirror and stuck out her tongue. It looked like a rosy pink welcome mat to her delicate insides. Her usual rubber mold formula was out of the question—too toxic. She wondered, What is safe to swallow, fast and easy to apply, and hardens quickly into a firm mold?
One of her horse-riding pals, a veterinarian named Mary Wright, had the answer: alginate. Mary told Diane that alginate was a pink gummy material used to make molds of teeth. If it was safe for pets, it should be safe for a tiger.
And people, too, Diane thought.
At her lab, she mixed the alginate powder with water to form a paste. Standing in front of a mirror, she scooped up a blob and spread it on her tongue. She pressed it down with her fingers to get out any air bubbles. Not bad, she thought. Tastes just like spearmint. She decided to make an extra-thick mold to make it easier to peel off. So, she added another gloopy blog—and another.
With her thickened tongue hanging out, Diane padded around the lab doing odds and ends while the material set. After about 10 minutes, she peeled off the alginate slowly and carefully. It was fragile—bendable and easy to tear—but it made an excellent impression of her tongue.
Which action in the excerpt illustrates that Diane is dedicated to her work?
A. She makes a mold of her own tongue.
B. She performs odd jobs around the lab.
C. She stands in front of the mirror.
D. She goes horseback riding with a friend.
Answer:
she preform odd jobs around the lab

HELP PLEASE:) The author of Nickel and Dimed, Barbara Ehrenreich, found that she could not survive on $7.00 per hour—not if she wanted to live indoors. Consider how her experiment would have played out in your community. Limiting yourself to $7.50 per hour (which is approximately the minimum wage today in most states), create a hypothetical monthly budget for your part of the country.
Answer: $7.50 x 10 (assuming I would work 10 hours a day, like Barbara Ehrenreich did) = $75 x 5 days/week = $375 x 4 weeks in a month = $1500
i would make $1500 a month, excluding tax that would be $1000. I would barely be able to pay for my rent and utilities with this money.
Answer:
Barbara Ehreneich's minimum wage of $7 may have been close to affordable and reaching monthly budgets. However, she would not survive a day in my community. Particularly in California 2020, along with food, gas, health & car insurance, and shelter. A hypothetical monthly budget in my part of the country would range from one grand to two grand. This is because California is one of the most expensive states in the country and with a job of $7.50 per hour, I would need to stay at a hotel for a few days before getting a second job. Then and only then would I be able to withhold a monthly budget.
