Answer:

A). To show that the family is trying to prevent Liaqat from sharing certain information.

Explanation:

The author most likely included this interaction(in this excerpt from 'Free the Children') is to display that the family was attempting to avert Liaqat from sharing certain information that could have led to undesired consequences. The point is substantiated by the reactions of translator and Iqbal's mother as displayed by the phrase 'raised his voice slightly', 'as if he had not given the answer they wanted to hear'. The family was trying to hide certain information that may lead to a serious issue. Thus, they are conscious of the information being revealed and hence, they are trying to prevent it from being revealed. Therefore, option A is the answer.

What is the error? THERE'S NOW SEVEN NEW FLAVORS!
Arte-miy333 [17]
The error is in italics and bolded for you:
<em>THERE'S</em> NOW SEVEN NEW FLAVORS!

The correct way to write the sentence should be like this:
<em>THERE ARE</em> NOW SEVEN NEW FLAVORS!


The reason it is <em>There are </em>and not <em>there's(there is)</em>, is because you are talking about the new flavors being in the present tense form. Like... it's hard to explain, I guess...


Hope this helps!!!!

arlik [135]

Answer:

d. He states that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs."

Explanation:

Jonathan Swift was an English writer, critic and poet who had also greatly written about the political issues of his society and time. The essay "A Modest Proposal" was anonymously published by him as a form of critiquing the impoverished nature of the Irish people and their economic troubles.

The excerpt from the essay shows Swift suggesting sarcastically that poor families should produce children and then sell them as meat for the rich. He implies that this will not only give an endless supply of food (meat) for the rich to entertain their guests but also provide a steady source of income for the poor people too. This will enable the balance in the economic situation of the Irish people.

An understatement is the presentation of something that is serious in a far less serious manner. This makes the issue seem less serious or less important. Swift uses an understatement when he stated that sending children to the butcher would be as simple as "roasting pigs". Sending children to be killed and eaten as meat is a serious and horrifying thing to do, but he compares it to a simple act of "roasting pigs", thus making it an understatement.

By cleverly alluding to the Declaration of Independence and by telling about his dream for his children, King shows that he is a
Sidana [21]

Answer:

"cleverly" and "is an expert"

Explanation:

"Subjective expressions" are <em>words, phrases or even sentences that makes a statement biased.</em> It is a person's personal thought about an event, a situation, another person and so on.

In the sentence above, the words "cleverly" and "is an expert" are both subjective expressions. The reader doesn't know what it means to "cleverly allude." The writer's way of cleverly alluding might be different from the reader. So, it goes the same way with the phrase, "is an expert." The writer personally thinks that King is expressing himself to be an expert. It is only a personal opinion and not a fact.

Both of the expressions are just according to the writer's feelings and thoughts.

How does a parent’s relationship with his or her daughter while she is a bacha posh compare to after, when she is asked to prese
liq [111]

In Afghanistan, "bacha posh" directly translates to "dressed like a boy" for children who are born female. The families may choose to raise their daughters as bacha posh to ensure safety and a better quality of life.

During their childhood, bacha poshs are allowed movement to run errands, escort sisters, go to school and get an education, and even play sports. The parents give much freedom to bacha poshs. Once she reaches puberty she is expected to switch to a conservative women's lifestyle; to marry and have children. The parents behavior towards their daughter during and after the bacha posh phase is contradictory - the relationship towards their daughter is the complete opposite afterwards.
