What is the significance of the items in Mariam’s tin in the book Shooting Kabul?

Answers

Answer:

The family's unity

Explanation:

The book Shooting Kabul tells the story of an Afghan family trying to escape the country which had been disrupted because of the activities of the Taliban. Fadi was 12 years old, his little sister Mariam was 6. They had an older sister named Noor, and their parents Habib and Zafooni. As they made their way out of the country, Mariam pleaded with Fadi to put his doll in his backpack but he refused, urging her to move along while he held her hand. Mariam's doll eventually fell down and while she tried to pick it up, the Taliban appeared causing the truck driver who was picking them to drive off. Mariam was left behind.

Her tin which was still carried by Fadi who now felt much guilt contained, Mariam's baby tooth,  a tassel from her father's graduation gown, a buckle from Noor's belt, Zafoona's broken pearl earring, and a photograph of Fadi holding Mariam when she was a baby. All these were a symbol of the family's unity.

All of the following are subtheories of the triarchic theory of human intelligence except __________ subtheory.a. practical
b. creative
c. analytical
d. emotional

Answers

The right answer is "d. emotional"

According to Robert Sternberg, intelligence comprises analytical, creative and practical abilities, emotional capacity are not considered in this theory. In analytical thinking, we try to solve known problems, using strategies that manipulate the elements of a problem or the relationships between the elements (eg, compare, analyze); in creative thinking, we try to solve new kinds of problems that require us to ponder the problem and its elements in a new way (eg, to invent, to plan); in practical thinking, we try to solve problems that apply what we know to everyday contexts (eg, apply, use).

Hello, the odd one out here would be D - emotional. "Practical", "creative" and "analytical" underline the three parts of Sternberg's triarchic theory of human intelligence, and they are practically the same, it is the different contexts and situations which seek different intelligences.

Which word in the sentence does the participial phrase modify?Laughing at the question, he shook his head and said, "No."
A.shook
B.head
C.question
D.he

Answers

Answer:

D. He

Explanation:

The participle phrase is here modifying the subject "he". It assists in the amendment of the gerund phrase i.e. 'his laughing action" where the participle phrase("he shook his head and said") acts as an adjective to revamp or modify the previous idea. As we know that adjectives always function as a transformer of a noun or pronoun and thus adds to meaning and description to the sentence which best illustrates the use of participle phrase here. Thus, we could conclude that here the participle phrase modifies the pronoun "he".

the answer is d he is laughing
