Which narrative point of view is used in this excerpt from “The Lily’s Quest” by Nathaniel Hawthorne?

So one breezy and cloudless afternoon Adam Forrester and Lilias Fay set out upon a ramble over the wide estate which they were to possess together, seeking a proper site for their temple of happiness. They were themselves a fair and happy spectacle, fit priest and priestess for such a shrine, although, making poetry of the pretty name of Lilias, Adam Forrester was wont to call her "Lily" because her form was as fragile and her cheek almost as pale. As they passed hand in hand down the avenue of drooping elms that led from the portal of Lilias Fay's paternal mansion they seemed to glance like winged creatures through the strips of sunshine, and to scatter brightness where the deep shadows fell.

Do you think every school has equal opportunities and one's
Success simply depends on how much they put into it?or do you think some schools offer more opportunities for success than others ?

Answers

It is widely accepted that educational opportunities for children ought to be equal. This thesis follows from two observations about education and children: first, that education significantly influences a person’s life chances in terms of labor market success, preparation for democratic citizenship, and general human flourishing; and second, that children’s life chances should not be fixed by certain morally arbitrary circumstances of their birth such as their social class, race, and gender. But the precise meaning of, and implications for, the ideal of equality of educational opportunity is the subject of substantial disagreement (see Jencks 1988). This entry provides a critical review of the nature and basis of those disagreements.

To frame the discussion we introduce three key factors that underscore the importance of treating equality of educational opportunity as an independent concern, apart from theories of equality of opportunity more generally. These factors are: the central place of education in modern societies and the myriad opportunities it affords; the scarcity of high-quality educational opportunities for many children; and the critical role of the state in providing educational opportunities. These factors differentiate education from many other social goods. We follow this with a brief history of how equality of educational opportunity has been interpreted in the United States since the 1950s and the evolving legal understandings of equality of opportunity. Our subsequent analysis has implications for issues that are at the center of current litigation in the United States. But our philosophical discussion is intended to have wider reach, attempting to clarify the most attractive competing conceptions of the concept.

Education has both instrumental and intrinsic value for individuals and for societies as a whole. As the US Supreme Court stated in its unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), “In these days, it is doubtful that any child may reasonably be expected to succeed in life if he is denied the opportunity of an education”. The instrumental goals of K–12 education for individuals include access to higher education and a constellation of private benefits that follow college education such as access to interesting jobs with more vacation time and better health care; greater personal and professional mobility, better decision-making skills (Institute for Higher Education Policy 1998) and more autonomy at work. Research further shows that education levels are correlated with health and wealth: the more education a person has, the healthier and wealthier she is likely to be. At the same time, education is also considered intrinsically valuable. Developing one’s skills and talents can be enjoyable or good in itself and a central component of a flourishing life, regardless of the consequences this has for wealth or health.

In addition to the instrumental and intrinsic value of education to an individual, education is also valuable for society. All societies benefit from productive and knowledgeable workers who can generate social surplus and respond to preferences. Furthermore, democratic societies need to create citizens who are capable of participating in the project of shared governance. The correlation between educational attainment and civic participation is strong and well-documented: educated citizens have more opportunities to obtain and exercise civic skills, are more interested in and informed about politics, and in turn, are more likely to vote (Verba, Schlozman, & Brady 1995: 432–437, 445).

It is therefore relatively uncontroversial to say that education is a highly valuable good to both individuals and to society, especially to democratic societies. This makes questions about who has access to high-quality educational opportunities, and how educational opportunities should be distributed, particularly important.

Questions about the just distribution of educational opportunity are especially vexing given the scarcity of resources allocated to education. Although developed societies provide some education for free to their citizens, funding for education is always in competition with the need to provide citizens with other social goods. As Amy Gutmann writes: “The price of using education to maximize the life chances of children would be to forego these other social goods” (Gutmann 1999: 129). Other basic welfare needs (e.g., housing, healthcare, food), as well as cultural goods (e.g., museums, parks, concert halls), must be weighed against public funds allocated to education, thereby making high-quality education—even in highly productive societies—scarce to some degree.

Re-read lines 25-43. How do Rusesabagina's words convey his feelings about the division between Hutus & Tustis? What is his purpose in describing his family when explaining these differences? Support your answer with explicit textual evidence.

Answers

This question is about "An Ordinary Man" by Paul Rusesabagina.

Answer:

Rusesabagina does not see differences between Hutus and Tustis, to evidence this opinion he mentions that his father was Hutu and his mother was Tustsi, he did not see differences between his parents, so he does not see differences between these two races.

Explanation:

Rusesabagina does not understand the rivalry and intolerance between the Hutus and Tutsis. That is why he does not support the genocide that is taking place among these peoples and decides to hide many refugees so that they are not murdered. For him, this division between the two peoples is not beneficial and makes no sense.

This opinion is greatly influenced by the formation of the Rusesabagina family, because the father belonged to the Hutus, while the mother belonged to the Tutsis. this ethical division was never present in their homes, which proves that the division is not beneficial, but is responsible for causing a lot of pain and suffering.

The author of the story is Paul Rusesabagina.

In which he cannot make any difference between Hutus and Tustis, to evidence this opinion he said that.

His was the son of Tustsi, and  Hutus. He is unable to see any difference between his parents which is very normal no child can see any difference between there parents.

Rusesabagina does not understand the intolerance between the Hutus and Tutsis. Or else we can say he don't wants to understand that cause no child want there parents to be apart.

This opinion is somehow influenced by the family of  Rusesabagina

Because his father comes from the Hutus, while the mother belonged to the Tutsis so this is very natural and common the ethical division was never present in their homes.

In Rusesabagina eyes it proves that the division is not beneficial or good, but is it responsible for causing a lot of pain or can create a mental health issue the family members.

Sugar plantations were Hell because of the endless labor they demanded from slaves. They were Hell because of the many dangers and the injuries that they caused. They were Hell because the slaves who labored without end got nothing for their work—except to live another day, to work more. But none of these miseries was the true reason the plantations were so evil. The plantations were Hell because the masters and overseers were treated as gods—which turned them into devils. The English historian Lord Acton famously said, “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” That is a perfect description of sugar Hell. Men with absolute power over their slaves acted like creatures we would otherwise meet only in nightmares. Their cruelty had no limit—they preferred to kill their slaves rather than fear them.
