Answer:
Maureen Daly uses a first person narrator in her short story “Sixteen.” As the story begins, the narrator, who is the protagonist, goes to great lengths to let the reader know that she is worldly in a teenaged sort of way. She knows what the latest styles are, she reads the current editorials, and listens to the radio. She wants you to know that she is not just a silly girl. When she ventures out to the skating rink on a cold winter night, she describes the beauty of the stars, the moon, the crunchy snow, and the sounds at the rink. It seems that she is an intuitive, detailed oriented, young woman in how she presents herself and cares for her things. She places her shoes out of the way in the skate shack to keep them safe. She is a rational thinker.
However, as soon as the young male skater takes her hand, all rationality ceases. She becomes a giddy young girl who purely enjoys skating and walking home with this young man. When they reach home, he says he will call her, which she firmly believes. She waits expectantly for days before coming to the realization that he will never call. This takes you back to the beginning of the story when she says, “Now don’t get me wrong. I mean, I want you to understand from the beginning that I’m not so really dumb.”

Predict what the world might be like if no one tried to think critically. Explain your predictions.
CAN I GET HELL NOW IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT!!
Answer:
if no one tried to think critically, then everyone would be in a tizzy. critical thinking is logical and comes from an analytical perspective, and if this form of thought was gone, we would be left with emotional thinking. with emotional thinking, people will act on how they feel, rather than a logical explanation. the world would go crazy and be a mess of emotional beings who let their feelings get in the way of logic.
Explanation:
Answer: if we lived in a world where people didn’t think critically , we might believe whatever we’re told , and we would probably have difficulties seeing the connection between ideas and detecting inconsistencies in reasoning. Moreover, we might be unable to solve our own problems because it requires critical thinking skills and creativity to identify possible solutions to a problem.

03: Whom would you expect to care about the boy more, his grandmother or the gardener? Whose actions hurt the boy and whose actions help him?
Answer:
Explanation:
In Nadine Gordimer's story "Once upon a Time," the grandmother is surprisingly referred to as "that wise old witch." Nevertheless, the parents believe the grandmother has the entire family's best interests at heart, and they follow her advice when she tells them "not to take on anyone off the street" as a household employee. Later in the story, the grandmother helps the parents increase the height of the wall around their home by giving them bricks for Christmas. She also gives her grandson "a Space Man outfit and a book of fairy tales." The parents no doubt appreciated these gifts and took them as evidence that the grandmother cared for them and their son.
