By roald dahl when i was four months old, my mother died suddenly and my father was left to look after me all by himself. this is how i looked at the time. i had no brothers or sisters. so all through my boyhood, from the age of four months onward, there was just us two, my father and me. we lived in an old gypsy caravan behind a filling station. my father owned the filling station and the caravan and a small meadow behind, but that was about all he owned in the world. it was a very small filling station on a small country road surrounded by fields and woody hills. while i was still a baby, my father washed me and fed me and changed my diapers and did all the millions of other things a mother normally does for her child. that is not an easy task for a man, especially when he has to earn his living at the same time by repairing automobile engines and serving customers with gasoline. but my father didn't seem to mind. i think that all the love he had felt for my mother when she was alive he now lavished upon me. during my early years, i never had a moment's unhappiness or illness, and here i am on my fifth birthday. 1.how would the story be different if the audience could see the story through the father's point of view? the audience might get a better sense of how much the narrator seems to miss being raised by his mother. the audience would better understand that the passing of the narrator's mother does not affect his happiness. the audience might better understand what about the narrator's life makes it so happy and joyful. the audience would see whether or not the father truly enjoyed working at his job and raising the narrator.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmith’s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near by—it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience and—he knew not why—apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.

How does the author use the character of the nurse to develop the social issue of gender inequality? the nurse’s willingness to take care of nora when nora was little demonstrates a woman’s ability to do difficult work. the nurse’s need to give up a child in order to have a job demonstrates a woman’s inability to support herself. the fact that the nurse’s child wrote to her as a young girl and as an adult demonstrates a woman’s ability to keep friends forever. the nurse’s assurance to nora that her children ask for her often demonstrates women’s role in health care.
