Answer:

The correct answer is <u>B</u>: Aunt Zeze is misunderstood and even though she loves her nieces, she experiences great personal unhappiness.

Explanation:

<em>Aunt Zeze's Tears</em> is a Brazilian short story, written by Emilia Moncoroua Bandeira de Mello.

Aunt Zeze is a young woman who got old prematurely because she dedicated all her life to her nieces. She is misunderstood by her family, they laugh at her, as she did not have a proper youth because she decided to stay with her sister and nieces, so she still dresses like a teenage girl and has her dreams and unfulfilled ambitions.

Zeze fell in love with a friend of her brother-in-law named Monjardin who writes a poem to her. While listening the poem, Zeze realizes that she is too old to fell in love and she will never find her happiness.

Are technology advertisements aimed at teenagers effective? And, are they ethical? I need help with a conclusion
aksik [14]

Answer:

Personally, I would say that they're effective, however, they are also unethical. Teens typically don't know what's best for them, and they also don't have the finances to purchase such tech products. But, because naturally advertisements are meant to be convincing, if done well, it can convince teens to do what they need to in order to afford these products. An example could be Apple advertising the newest iPhone or Macbook to teenagers. These are very expensive products, but the moment that they are released everyone wants them, so yes it is effective. However, teenagers are very impressionable. One again, they don't know what's best for them or what they actually need.  Companies are actively preying on teens' vulnerability and desire to own things they think are "cool," therefore advertising tech products directly to the youth for monetary gain is unethical.

Dear Mother,

How are you? Everything is well at my end and hope the same with you. In this letter, I wanted to tell you about today as today was one of the most hectic days. Because of the Independence Day celebration, I was very tired since yesterday. And today my maths teacher had asked us to complete the assignment tomorrow itself. Although I've completed the task but have become very tired.

For now, I’m ending the letter. Will talk about it more in another letter. Take care of yourself.
