Ravi is a character in the short story "Games at Twilight", by Anita Desai. He and his siblings are playing hide-and-seek when he decides to hide in the shed where old furniture and broken things are kept. Ravi is excited about the idea of winning the game. He is motivated by picturing himself as a champion who got to win over older, smarter kids. After hiding for hours, he comes out and runs to the "den" to become the desperate winner of a game that had been long over. His siblings had forgotten about him.
Upon this awful realization, Ravi feels completely isolated. He is obviously a young child who is still insecure about his place in the world. That's why he is so desperate to win - to prove something to himself and others. But the fact that he was forgotten is utterly disappointing and hurtful. He does not feel included; he does not want to be included anymore:
And the arc of thin arms trembled in the twilight, and the heads were bowed so sadly, and their feet tramped to that melancholy refrain so mournfully, so helplessly, that Ravi could not bear it. He would not follow them, he would not be included in this funereal game. He had wanted victory and triumph—not a funeral. But he had been forgotten, left out, and he would not join them now. The ignominy of being forgotten—how could he face it? He felt his heart go heavy and ache inside him unbearably. He lay down full length on the damp grass, crushing his face into it, no longer crying, silenced by a terrible sense of his insignificance.

Read this passage: LADY MACBETH. Glamis thou art, and Cawdor; and shalt be What thou art promised. Yet do I fear thy nature; It is too full o' th' milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great, Art not without ambition, but without The illness should attend it. What thou wouldst highly, That wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false, And yet wouldst wrongly win. Thou'ld'st have, great Glamis, That which cries, "Thus thou must do," if thou have it, And that which rather thou dost fear to do, Than wishest should be undone. Hie thee hither, That I may pour my spirits in thine ear And chastise with the valor of my tongue All that impedes thee from the golden round, Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem To have thee crowned withal. William Shakespeare, Macbeth, Act I, scene v How does Lady Macbeth feel about her husband in the passage? A. She believes he is too superstitious and will want to hear more of the witches' prophecies. B. She believes he is weak and won't do what needs to be done to become king. C. She believes he is lucky to have been granted a new title and should remain faithful to the king. D. She believes that he won't be loyal to the king and will be branded a traitor and executed.
Answer:
B). She believes he is weak and won't do what needs to be done to become king.
Explanation:
Lady Macbeth in the given passage is quite alarmed as she fears that her husband is too fragile to carry out the plan of killing the king Duncan and him becoming the king. She says ('I fear thy nature') and calls him 'too full o' th' milk of human kindness' which reflects that she feels his kindness makes him weak and may prevent him from proceeding the plan. Thus, she manipulates him to keep his kindness aside and do what she wishes him to do. She rather belittles him to get her purpose solved and hence, option B is the correct answer.

Why does the speaker say, “Before I built a wall I’d ask to know/What I was walling in or walling out,/And to whom I was like to give offensive”?
Answer:
Because the speaker is cautious and likes to think before acting.
Explanation:
The speaker states “Before I built a wall I’d ask to know / What I was walling in or walling out, / And to whom I was like to give offensive,” to give the reader a sense of rationality and caution. This is because the speaker shows how cautious and how he always thinks before acting, not only so that he knows what he is doing and why he is doing it, but so that he is aware of the consequences that his actions will cause and that he can thus avoid situations that are not of interest to him.

Read the excerpt from "The Scarlet Ibis."
The lightning was near now, and from fear he walked so
close behind me he kept stepping on my heels. The faster |
walked, the faster he walked, so I began to run. The rain
was coming, roaring through the pines, and then, like a
bursting Roman candle, a gum tree ahead of us was
shattered by a bolt of lightning. When the deafening peal of
thunder had died, and in the moment before the rain
arrived, I heard Doodle, who had fallen behind, cry out,
"Brother, Brother, don't leave me! Don't leave me!"
The imagery in this excerpt most reflects
the sense of sight to emphasize the fear that Doodle
was feeling
the sense of sight to emphasize how difficult it was for
the boys to see
the sense of sound to emphasize the frustration of the
narrator.
the sense of sound to emphasize the intense volume of
the storm.
Answer: The sense of sound to emphasize the intense volume of the storm.
