Answers

Although forgiving someone can be the right thing to do, like when it comes to small things that don’t impact someone’s life. In this case two people were affected and their lives changed forever there still has to be a punishment as there is still rules and laws that must be upheld; like the famous quote goes “punishment fits the crime”.

What was the biggest challenge that Ernesto faced in the excerpt from "Barrio Boy"? Group of answer choices Learning to speak a new language Being a new kid at school and making friends Being in a new country w/a different culture Learning to trust adults for the first time

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Learning to speak a new language.

Explanation:

In the 11th and 12th paragraph of the story Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza, the narrator makes comments that would suggest that he finds the English language very difficult.

In the last line of the 11th paragraph, for instance, he states:

"And when I least  expected it, there she was, crouching by my desk, her blond radiant face level  with mine, her voice patiently manoeuvering me over the awful idiocies of the  English language. "

Also, in the 3rrd and 4th sentences of the 12th paragraph, the narrator recounts the following:

"Frequently she burst into happy announcements to the whole class. “Ito can read  a sentence,” and small Japanese Ito, squint-eyed and shy, slowly read aloud  while the class listened in wonder: “Come, Skipper, come. Come and run.”

An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind” – Mahatma Gandhiji. What is the meaning of following quote? Do you agree ? how does it relate to your life or the world?

Answers

Answer:

I agree. It means that when violent trades are blown on both sides, both will be crippled. If humans can choose to resolve a conflict peacefully, no or few eyes will be lost. It relates to us because in Ukraine, about 2 million people have evacuated and many have lost their lives. If this was resolved peacefully, then many people wouldn't have to evacuate and few would have died.

It basically says that if someone does something heinous, they deserve to have the same thing done to them. For example, if someone breaks your MacBook, it's only right that you take his MacBook and break it.

Gandhi, on the other hand, was not on board. His remark "an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind" means that if we continue to punish people we consider cruel, we are no better than the bad ones ourselves. It's the whole "you can't solve violence with violence" spiel.

The main reason "an eye for an eye" cannot be applied to all situations is because it would yield ludicrous results in some cases. A vehicle thief might not possess a car to steal, while an arsonist might not own anything to burn down. Would cops abduct a convicted kidnapper or spy on a Peeping Tom?

And applying "an eye for an eye" to more horrific offenses such as rupe, assault, and attempted murder raises the question of who would carry out such retributions.

However, when considering the death penalty today, the quote may be pertinent.

D) When a group is faced with a common adversity, working together is better than being divided.

Answers

Answer:

The implied message of this story is:

D) When a group is faced with a common adversity, working together is better than being divided.

Explanation:

According to the story, the reason why the ants haven't succeeded in protecting themselves from predators is their lack of unity. They all work diligently, but each group of ants does so according to their own opinions and ways. Because of that, Anteater, Centipede, and Birds remain undefeated. The Insect-king has tried to warn the ants, teach them about uniting and overcoming their adversities together. That way, they will succeed. However, his message has yet to arrive.

NOTE: Here is the full story

The Lost Message (South African Folk Tale)

THE ant has had from time immemorial many enemies, and because he is small and destructive, there have been a great many slaughters among them. Not only were most of the birds their enemies, but Anteater lived almost wholly from them, and Centipede beset them every time and at all places when he had the chance.

So now there were a few among them who thought it would be well to hold council together and see if they could not come to some arrangement whereby they could retreat to some place of safety when attacked by robber birds and animals.

But at the gathering their opinions were most discordant, and they could come to no decision.

There was Red-ant, Rice-ant, Black-ant, Wagtail-ant, Gray-ant, Shining-ant, and many other varieties. The discussion was a true babel of diversity, which continued for a long time and came to nothing.

A part desired that they should all go into a small hole in the ground, and live there; another part wanted to have a large and strong dwelling built on the ground, where nobody could enter but an ant; still another wanted to dwell in trees, so as to get rid of Anteater, forgetting entirely that there they would be the prey of birds; another part seemed inclined to have wings and fly.

And, as has already been said, this deliberation amounted to nothing, and each party resolved to go to work in its own way, and on its own responsibility.

Greater unity than that which existed in each separate faction could be seen nowhere in the world; each had his appointed task, each did his work regularly and well. And all worked together in the same way. From among them they chose a king-that is to say some of the groups did-and they divided the labor so that all went as smoothly as it possibly could.

But each group did it in its own way, and not one of them thought of protecting themselves against the onslaught of birds or Anteater.

The Red-ants built their house on the ground and lived under it, but Anteater leveled to the ground in a minute what had cost them many days of precious labor. The Rice-ants lived under the ground, and with them it went no better. For whenever they came out, Anteater visited them and took them out sack and pack. The Wagtail-ants fled to the trees, but there on many occasions sat Centipede waiting for them, or the birds gobbled them up. The Gray-ants had intended to save themselves from extermination by taking to flight, but this also availed them nothing, because the Lizard, the Hunting-spider, and the birds went a great deal faster than they.

When the Insect-king heard that they could come to no agreement he sent them the secret of unity, and the message of Work-together. But unfortunately he chose for his messenger the Beetle, and he has never yet arrived at the Ants, so that they are still to-day the embodiment of discord and consequently the prey of enemies.
