10: Read the italicized portion on 76-77.

Summarize:









Analyze this memory. What connection does it have to what is happening to Hassan? What is symbolic?















After running away and admitting his cowardice, Amir says: “Nothing is free in this world. Maybe Hassan was the price I had to pay, the lamb I had to slay, to win Baba. Was it a fair price? The answer floated to my conscious mind before I could thwart it: He was just a Hazara, wasn’t he?” (77).

What does Amir mean in this quote? What does it reveal about his character? Does it change the way you view him?











What does Amir mean when, upon meeting Hassan with the blue kite in his hand, he says, “…what would I see if I did look into his eyes? Blame? Indignation? Or, God forbid, what I feared most: guileless devotion? That, most of all, I couldn’t bear to see” (78)

Answer 1

Answer:

Oh! Love this book!!

The Lake Dream:

Amir remembers the dream because it reflect what Hassan thinks of him- his best and only friend, brave and daring, someone who he could climb mountains with. They are unafraid of the monster below, and Amir even proves that there is no monster. This can also be taken as symbolism for their society, where the monster is the stereotypes against Hassan and his ethnic minority, only for Amir to prove that they are not true at all.

But as he himself reflects on the dream, he changes the meaning by calling himself the monster, the terrible beast who has betrayed Hassan. He does nothing, caught up by what his society values and how he is under no obligation to help his servant, a Hazara. He becomes the embodiment of his culture's racism instead of its rebel, he is the monster.

The Lamb Memory:

Here Amir says that he sees the same eyes in Hassan as the lamb he once sacrificed. He is sacrificing his entire relationship with Hassan for the kite, which he thinks is his best chance at winning over his father's love. Especially, he is trading the life of one for another. Amir didn't want to sacrifice the lamb, but he did so because it would please his father. Amir believed the kite will please his father, but deep down he knows what he is allowing is wrong, and it's the same type of conflict he felt for the lamb.

The comparison from Hassan to a lamb also shows what Amir thinks of him in this moment: not human. Amir's society allows him to take the cowards way out without any reproduction, and he does. It is still his fault because he knows better, his Baba and Hassan himself taught him better, but in his fear he justified his actions by dehumanizing Hassan into just a lamb for slaughter. This gives us a new perspective of him since before now he was very close to Hassan and values him as a friend.

Hassan's Eyes:

Amir almost immediately regrets what he has done, to the point where he can't even look Hassan in the eyes. He feels ashamed.

Despite justifying his lack of action, Amir still feels that he deserves to be punishes severely for his betrayal. That is why above any negative emotions that Hassan might have for him, his greatest fear would be seeing that Hassan doesn't regret being raped for Amir, knowing now that Amir is satisfied with the outcome as well. Amir realizes that despite sacrificing Hassan for his relationship with Baba, Hassan would do it for him knowing his loyalty is not returned.

Aaaa it's suck a good book you're gonna love it. Keep an open mind, it's a little hard to grasp at first but it gets easier. Keep looking for connections between Amir's morals and his current society. Best of luck!

Relate in your own words what you have learned about the changing relationship between England and the Catholic Church. Use examples

Answers

Shall we say, a little up and down?

(Unstable or dominated by problems and turmoil)

Henry was excommunicated. Hardly friendly. Under his son, Edward, the country was taken in a hard Protestant direction. Not guaranteed to appease the Bishop ofRome.

When his daughter Mary came to the throne she had a habit of burning people who opposed her reimposing catholicism. That didn’t help much either, as she was succeeded by Protestant Elizabeth who was promptly condemned by the Pope which gave free reign to Catholics to assasinate her and overthrow the Protestant regime. There were hundreds of plots to kill her and a major attempt to invade the country, complete with Papal banner.

For the next 100 years there was absolute paranoia about catholicism which led to heavy persecution of adherents and the fall of the Stuart monarchy -though curiously the Earl Marshall of England, the premier non-royal noble, was always a cathokic. This led to the Glorious Revolution which excluded catholics from the throne and from many positions in the state.

Within a hundred years this paranoia died down and there was even a Jesuit as a member of the Royal Institution. Over the following fifty years the last remaining restrictions on catholic civil rights were removed and even Irish catholics were eventually given the vote.

Now relations arw really quite cuddly, though there are stridently disapproving wings of both the Anglican and Catholic churches.

b. The cake was baked by my grandmother.

Explanation:

A shift in the voice of the verb in a sentence is indicative of whether it is in the active/ direct or passive voice. Passive voice refers to the way the speech is reported, and in this voice, the subject is acted upon by the verb.  Simply put, in passive voice, the emphasis is on the recipient of the verb whereas active voice emphasizes the doer of the action.

Among the given sentences, the sentence that uses the verb in the passive voice is option b. In this sentence, the subject "cake" is acted upon by the verb "baked".

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

multiply the divisor by the dividend

bring down the first digit in the dividend

Answers

The dividend is the number on the right side of the equation, under the line. It represents the amount being divided.

The divisor is the number on the left -- it’s the one doing the dividing.

The quotient is the number on the top. It represents the answer, or the number of units in each place value once the equation has been completed.

The remainder is the number on the top right. It represents the units left over that can’t be evenly divided into the quotient.

Divide the ones column dividend by the divisor Is the first step.

Use multiplication to figure out how many times the divisor fits into the dividend and write this number on the top is the second step.

Multiply the number on the top and the divisor and subtract it from the dividend Is the third step.

Bring down the next digit from the dividend and attach it to the end of the remainder Is the fourth step.

Repeat with the remaining digits until you can no longer bring down any more digits. This will be your answer (quotient) Is the ffth step.
