The correct answer is C. The race riots give real context to the narrator's opinion on race. Balwin dies right before the race riots begin. His father had always believed in racism and that black people were to tread carefully around white people. Balwin had different ideas, but through his life also learned that racism was a real thing, but remained confused wishing his father could help him find the answers to his questions.. The race riots gave context to the changing and evolving ideas of Baldwin.

Answer:

A laugh stops pointless argument.

Explanation:

The story of Satish is all about a community who is not wise and quarrels with each other on little disagreements. Satish saw two people fighting over their preferences of Idli or Dosa.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer and Explanation:

In "Chivalry", by Neil Gaiman, we can see that Mrs. Whitaker lives a very monotonous life without major events. She is a widow and retired who lives alone, being kind and kind to everyone she knows.

The monotony in her life makes it seem like she is a dull and boring character, but she is a very interesting and intelligent woman, who has had a lot of action in her life, but who now prefers to live in tranquility, even if it seems monotone for the readers.
