<span>"Yet Gregor's sister was playing so beautifully. Her face was leant to one side, following the lines of music with a careful and melancholy expression. Gregor crawled a little further forward, keeping his head close to the ground so that he could meet her eyes if the chance came. Was he an animal if music could captivate him so? It seemed to him that he was being shown the way to the unknown nourishment he had been yearning for. He was determined to make his way forward to his sister and tug at her skirt to show her she might come into his room with her violin, as no-one appreciated her playing here as much as he would."
This passage shows that he still enjoys music, which is a human trait.</span>

Inga [223]

Answer and Explanation:

The interaction between Wes and his mother makes it difficult to say who was right. Although, I do not believe that using violence as punishment and imposing wills on children is the right way to be a mother, I cannot help denying that Wes's mother did him a good by sending him to military school, as he spared Wes the inhospitable environment where he lived and allowed the military school to change his personality for the better, but I think that her position in imposing this change of school should have been better explored. I believe she should have talked to Wes and exposed her opinion about him going to military school and listening to what he has to say about it and the behavior he is assuming.

Read the passage from Rain Myths.
AnnyKZ [126]

The sentence from the passage which is the best example of the feature found in a myth is "Near the beginning of life on Earth, Shen Nong, who was the Lord of the Wind, made many journeys over our world."

Myth refers to the traditional stories which include supernatural beings or events, concerned with the history of the people or explaining the social or natural phenomenon. For Example folk tales, fable, lore and so on.

Therefore, the above instance suggests that in <em>"Near the beginning of life on Earth"</em>, where no co- life existed with Shen Nong, he is considered to be the existence on earth. On the other hand, <em>"Lord of the Wind"</em> contains a supernatural figure which bestows the power related to wind. Hence, this sentence is considered to be the myth as it can relate to false idea or belief.
