Based on “Mrs. Dutta Writes a Letter,” how do Mrs. Dutta’s feelings affect her interactions with the other characters? She is unpredictable and causes her family to feel anxious.

She is lonely and dependent on her family.

She is withdrawn and doesn’t directly address her family.

She is full of experience and offers wisdom to her family.

Select TWO pieces of evidence from the passage that support the answer to Part A.

“But Mom, she’s in there. She’s been there forever. . .” says Mrinalini. Pause. “So go to the downstairs bathroom.”

“But all our stuff is here,” says Pradeep, and Mrinalini adds, “It’s not fair. Why can’t she go downstairs?”

A longer pause. Inside the bathroom Mrs. Dutta hopes Shyamoli will not be too harsh on the girl. But a child who refers to elders in that disrespectful way ought to be punished.

How many times had she slapped Sagar for something far less, though he was her only one, the jewel of her eye, come to her after she had been married for seven years and everyone had given up hope already/ Whenever she lifted her hand to him it was as though her heart was being put through a masala grinder. Such a mother’s duty.

But Shyamoli only says, in a tired voice, “That’s enough! Go put on your clothes, hurry.”

The grumblings recede. Footsteps clatter down the stairs. Inside the bathroom Mrs. Dutta bends over the sink, gripping the folds of her sari.

Hard to think through the pounding in her head to what it is she feels most - anger at the children for their rudeness, or at Shyamoli for letting them go unrebuked.

Iwill only mark brainliest if you get it correct. read the following prompt and type your response in the space provided. examine the diagram and text: you see water all around you every day as lakes, rivers, ice, rain and snow. there are also vast amounts of water that are unseen—water existing in the ground. and even though groundwater is unseen, it is moving below your feet right now. as part of the water cycle, groundwater is a major contributor to flow in many streams and rivers and has a strong influence on river and wetland habitats for plants and animals. people have been using groundwater for thousands of years and continue to use it today, largely for drinking water and irrigation. life on earth depends on groundwater just as it does on surface water. there are rivers flowing below our feet … a myth? have you ever heard that there are rivers of water flowing underground? do you think it’s true? actually, it is pretty much a myth. even though there are some caverns, lava, and ice tubes, and horizontal springs that can carry water, the vast majority of underground water occupies the space between rocks and subsurface material. some rivers, such as the alpha river in northern florida, usa, can disappear underground during low flow periods. generally, water underground is more like water in a sponge. it occupies the space is between soil and rock particles. at a certain depth below the land surface, the spaces between the soil and rock particles can be totally filled with water, resulting in an aquifer from which groundwater can be pumped into used by people. courtesy of the u. s. geological survey is there missing or extraneous information in this diagram? are all of the details in the text relevant and accurate? explain using details from the text.
