In paragraph 12, Turkle begins an extended metaphor: little “sips” of online connection. What does Turkle's metaphor describe?
Lady bird [7499]

Answer:

Professor Sherry Turkle uses the concept of "sips" of online interaction as a metaphor to depict the fragmented "pieces" of dialogue we share via technological means.

Explanation:

Sherry Turkle, PhD, a professor at MIT and a licensed clinical psychologist with a dual doctorate in sociology and psychology, observes that individuals are frequently avoiding crucial conversations we should be engaging in due to our constant connection to technology. In her article in the New York Times dated April 21, 2012, titled "The Flight from Conversation," Turkle urges individuals not to trade meaningful conversation for shallow connections. While technology can enhance our communication from a distance, she emphasizes the importance of maintaining genuine face-to-face exchanges with others.

Dhruv: Let us go for a movie, Madhav.
Bond [7527]

Dhruv: How about catching a movie, Madhav?

Madhav: I'm afraid I CANNOT (this indicates Madhav is unable to attend). I NEED (suggests he has to do something, and it’s the only suitable word to precede ‘to’) to get home right away.

Dhruv: But why SHOULD (this is a courteous way to inquire about someone’s actions) you be in such a rush?

Madhav: My mom is unwell. I MUST (means ‘need to’, but since there's no ‘to’ following it, it's the only logical choice) take her to the hospital without delay. Dad is away.
