The Storyteller, a classic work of H.H.Munro - known as Saki, talks about a bachelor who tells a story to two young girls who are his travel companions on a train.
Explanation:
This is a story that is straight-forward and direct. It starts to the point where the two young girls are listening to the story being narrated by their aunt. At the end of the story they both express that they have not liked it at all and that it is unreal because of its extreme morale.
The bachelor keeps observing the entire scene and listens to the story. He understands that the young girls want to listen to something realistic, practical and believable. He tells them a story titled as 'horribly good' about a girl who dies because of her goodwill/good deed medals making a noise while she tries to hide from view of a wild animal.
The girls absolutely love the story and exclaim how relating and realistic it is.
THE MORAL OF THE STORY and THE MESSAGE SAKI WANTS TO GIVE to his readers is exactly the same. He wants to tell his readers that righteousness is a trait that all of us must practice but it does not lead us to good ends. It can lead us to bad too. It is not true that good people will end up only in the good experiences. They suffer equally.
This is central message of the story.
Answer:
A. The Bronx squirrels that eat nearly all of the trees' acorn in the New York Botanical Garden.
Explanation:
<em>The City Without Us </em>is a chapter of the book <em>The World Without Us</em> written by American journalist Alan Weisman. It tells about what would happen to the natural and built environment if humans suddenly disappeared.
<em>The City Without Us</em> gives us an image of what New York would look like without humans. Some of the details are presented in the options you were given.
It's expected that wild animals, wolves included, would enter the city if there were no humans. That's how nature works.
Money is a concept invented by the man, and it has no meaning if humans don't exist. It has nothing to do with nature.
The ocean is a large force and it's one of the obvious proofs of how powerful nature is. In the story, though, it has not yet broken the levees around New York City.
What remains are the squirrels. No one would think that squirrels could do something major. Without anyone or anything controlling their population, though, they could eat nearly every acorn in the New York Botanical Garden, thus preventing them from growing into new oaks. That way they would reduce the oak tree population in New York. They show that nature is even more powerful than it appears.
