Which parts of this passage from chapter 6 of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights illustrate that Hindley Earnshaw is very willing

to please his wife?
Young Earnshaw was altered considerably in the three years of his absence. (A.He had grown sparer, and lost his colour, and spoke and dressed quite differently; and, on the very day of his return, he told Joseph and me we must thenceforth quarter ourselves in the back-kitchen, and leave the house for him.) (B. Indeed, he would have carpeted and papered a small spare room for a parlour; but his wife expressed such pleasure at the white floor and huge glowing fireplace, at the pewter dishes and delf-case, and dog-kennel, and the wide space there was to move about in where they usually sat, that he thought it unnecessary to her comfort, and so dropped the intention.)

(C. She expressed pleasure, too, at finding a sister among her new acquaintance; and she prattled to Catherine, and kissed her, and ran about with her, and gave her quantities of presents, at the beginning.) Her affection tired very soon, however, and when she grew peevish, Hindley became tyrannical. (D. A few words from her, evincing a dislike to Heathcliff, were enough to rouse in him all his old hatred of the boy.) He drove him from their company to the servants, deprived him of the instructions of the curate, and insisted that he should labour out of doors instead; compelling him to do so as hard as any other lad on the farm.

(E. Heathcliff bore his degradation pretty well at first, because Cathy taught him what she learnt, and worked or played with him in the fields.)

When Levy was<br> growing up, why<br> was she "indifferent to Jamaica"?
kari74 [83]

Answer: She was trying to fit in and be as British as possible

Explanation:

In the essay, ''Back to My Own Country'' by Andrea Levy, we are introduced to Andrea's family who had moved from Jamaica to Britain where she was born.

Her family did not want to appear out of place in Britain and so strove to fit in by acting and talking as British-like as they could. Andrea inherited this and tried as well to act British. This led to her being indifferent to her home country Jamaica so much so that she never bothered to tell her friends about it (not that they cared).

Furkat [3]

The following three lines indicate that all human beings are equal in the poet's eyes:

I am the poet of the woman the same as the man <em>(poet of both)</em>

And I say it is as great to be a woman as to be a man,  (it is great to be both)

And I say there is nothing greater than the mother of men.

It is clear the use of comparisons of equality in the previous sentences from the poem of Walt Whitman.
