I went inside then and in a moment he was gone. I watched him from my window as he went down the street. He was whistling softly

and I waited until the sound faded away so I couldn't tell if it was he or my heart whistling out there in the night. And then he was gone, completely gone. I shivered. Somehow the darkness seemed changed. The stars were little hard chips of light far up in the sky and the moon stared down with a sullen yellow glare. The air was tense with sudden cold and a gust of wind swirled his footprints into white oblivion. Everything was quiet. But he'd said, "I'll call you." That's what he said—"I'll call you." I couldn't sleep all night.

Answer:

c. In his left hand he grasped a sack, while his right was clutching the arm of a boy with a firm grip.

Explanation:

From the passage in Iqbal, it is clear the master exhibited cruelty, as demonstrated by his tight hold on the boy’s arm. The phrase "a firm grip" suggests a strong, unyielding hold that conveys the master’s harshness. The sentence

In his left hand he grasped a sack, while his right was clutching the arm of a boy with a firm grip

depicts Hussain, the master, as a cruel figure who commands obedience from the children.

in three or four sentences describe how poe uses imagery and sound devices to create mood in the raven
Bond [7527]

Poe employs sensory imagery related to sound, sight, and touch. Initially, these images evoke a somber, enigmatic, and tense atmosphere. Subsequently, this atmosphere transforms into one that is eerie. The use of sound elements, including the repeated name “Lenore” and its consistent rhyme with “nevermore,” creates a slow, haunting auditory effect, enhancing the unsettling mood.

Discuss why unequal access to basic services amount to social injustice , discuss 3 points
Naddik [7538]

We can examine this from several angles, but focusing on the three specified areas — education, health and social security — highlights the problems that follow when access is unequal. Without a decent education, people struggle to obtain well-paying jobs, which leads to long-term financial instability. Limited access to essential health services such as clean water, sanitation and adequate nutrition makes people far more vulnerable to illnesses. And lacking social protection or security increases the risk of theft and losing possessions, undermining personal safety and stability.
