96 CHARACTERSourdis husband had to go. We followed him .docxransayo
96 CHARACTER
Sourdi's husband had to go. We followed him
to the driveway. My
sister kissed him before he climbed into his Buick. He
rolled down the Win
dow, and she leaned in and kissed him again.
I turned away. I watched Duke standing in the
doorway, holding the
baby in his arms, cooing at its face. In his tough wannabe clothes, the super.
wide jeans and his fancy sneakers and the chain from his wallet to his belt
loops, he looked surprisingly young.
Sourdi lent us some blankets and matching his-and-hers Donald and Daisy
Duck sweatshirts for the trip back, since our coats were still wet and worthless.
"Don't tell Ma I was here, O.K.?" I begged Sourdi. "We'll be home by
afternoon. She'll just think I'm with friends or something. She doesn't have
to know, O.K.
Sourdi pressed her full lips together into a thin line and nodded in a way
that seemed as though she were answering a different question. And I knew
that I couldn't trust my sister to take my side anymore.
As we pulled away from Sourdi's house, the first icy snowflakes began to
fall across the windshield.
Sourdi stood in the driveway with the baby on her hip. She waved to us
as the snow swirled around her like ashes.
She had made her choice, and she hadn't chosen me.
Sourdi told me a story once about a magic serpent, the Naga, with a mouth
so large, it could swallow people whole. Our ancestors carved Naga into the
stones of Angkor Wat to scare away demons. Sourdi said people used to
believe they could come alive in times of great evil and protect the temples.
They could eat armies.
I wished I was a Naga. I would have swallowed the whole world in one gulp. 230
But I have no magic powers. None whatsoever.
CONSIDERATIONS FOR CRITICAL THINKING AND WRITING
1. FIRST RESPONSE. How does your response to Nea develop over thecourse of the story? Is she a dynamic or a static character?
2. Explain how Nea and Sourdi serve as character foils to one another.3. Discuss whether you think Duke is a flat or a round character.4. What is the effect of the story's being told from Nea's perspective? Howmight the story be different ifit were told from the mother's point ofview?5. Do you think Mr. Chhay is a good or bad husband?6. How does the information about Nea and Sourdi's trip through theminefield affect your understanding of Nea's relationship with her sister?7. Comment on the title. Why wouldn't an alternative like "Nea theTroublemaker" be appropriate?
8. CONNECTION To ANOTHER SELECTION. Compare the characterization ofNea in "saving Sourdi" and ofSammy in John Updike's "A & P" (p. 149).
In what sense do both characters see themselves as rescuers?
98 CHARACTER

Pobierz (Boger) Lives Reclaimed: A Story of Rescue and Resistance in Nazi Ger...AntonAlfinUtomo
From the celebrated historian of Nazi Germany, the story of a remarkable but completely unsung group that risked everything to help the most vulnerableIn the early 1920s amidst the upheaval of Weimar Germany, a small group of peaceable idealists began to meet, practicing a quiet, communal life focused on self-improvement. For the most part, they had come to know each other while attending adult education classes in the city of Essen. But �the Bund,� as they called their group, had lofty aspirations�under the direction of their leader Artur Jacobs, its members hoped to forge an ideal community that would serve as a model for society at large. But with the ascent of the Nazis, the Bund was forced to reevaluate its mission, focusing instead on offering assistance to the persecuted, despite the great risk. Their activities ranged from visiting devastated Jewish families after Kristallnacht, to sending illicit letters and parcels of food and clothes to deportees in concentration camps, to sheltering political dissidents and Jews on the run.What became of this group? And how should its deeds�often small, seemingly insignificant acts of kindness and assistance�be evaluated in the broader history of life under the Nazis? Drawing on a striking set of previously unpublished letters, diaries, Gestapo reports, other documents, and his own interviews with survivors, historian Mark Roseman shows how and why the Bund undertook its dangerous work. It is an extraordinary story in its own right, but Roseman takes us deeper, encouraging us to rethink the concepts of resistance and rescue under the Nazis, ideas too often hijacked by popular notions of individual heroism or political idealism. Above all, the Bund�s story is one that sheds new light on what it meant to offer a helping hand in this dark time.

Al Kitaplar Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Beco...AntonAlfinUtomo
Me and White Supremacy teaches readers how to dismantle the privilege within themselves so that they can stop (often unconsciously) inflicting damage on people of colour, and in turn, help other white people do better, too.When Layla Saad began an Instagram challenge called #MeAndWhiteSupremacy, she never predicted it would spread as widely as it did. She encouraged people to own up and share their racist behaviors, big and small. She was looking for truth, and she got it. Thousands of people participated in the challenge, and over 90,000 people downloaded the Me and White Supremacy Workbook.The updated and expanded Me and White Supremacy takes the work deeper by adding more historical and cultural contexts, sharing moving stories and anecdotes, and including expanded definitions, examples, and further resources.Awareness leads to action, and action leads to change. The numbers show that readers are ready to do this work - let's give it to them. .

(Verenga) [Kindle] Beyond Authority and Submission: Women and Men in Marriage...AntonAlfinUtomo
Theologically conservative Christians want to embrace a biblical understanding of women and men, but the beliefs of Greeks, Romans, and Victorians have had undue influence on contemporary teaching. Although modern discussions have focused on authority and submission, Rachel Green Miller believes that there is more to the biblical picture of women and men. As she examines and corrects conservative teaching on gender, she draws out equally important themes in Scripture that will strengthen our relationship as co-laborers in the kingdom of God. .
Utopia Avenue are the strangest British band you've never heard of. Emerging from London's psychedelic scene in 1967 and fronted by folksinger Elf Holloway, guitar demigod Jasper de Zoet and blues bassist Dean Moss, Utopia Avenue released only two LPs during its brief and blazing journey from the clubs of Soho and draughty ballrooms to Top of the Pops and the cusp of chart success, to glory in Amsterdam, prison in Rome and a fateful American fortnight in the autumn of 1968.David Mitchell's new novel tells the unexpurgated story of Utopia Avenue; of riots in the streets and revolutions in the head; of drugs, thugs, madness, love, sex, death, art; of the families we choose and the ones we don't; of fame's Faustian pact and stardom's wobbly ladder. Can we change the world in turbulent times, or does the world change us? Utopia means 'nowhere' but could a shinier world be within grasp, if only we had a map? .

Are Gutters Necessary? Explore the details now!AmeliaLauren3
Gutters are typically installed at a slight downward slope to allow water to flow freely towards downspouts or drains – the downspout being the vertical pipe attached to the gutters. The water is subsequently transported by the downspout to either the ground or an underground drainage system. Maintaining a gutter system that is free of blockages and functional requires regular maintenance.
But, many wonder in what situations gutters are required and not required. In this ppt we will discuss in detail the matter, ‘Are Gutters Necessary?’
