I have now been in India for over two years and a half after my return from South Africa. Over one quarter of that time I have passed on the Indian trains travelling third class by choice. I have travelled up north as far as Lahore, down south up to Tranquebar, and from Karachi to Calcutta. Having resorted to third class travelling, among other reasons, for the purpose of studying the conditions under which this class of passengers travel, I have naturally made as critical observations as I could. I have fairly covered the majority of railway systems during this period. Now and then I have entered into correspondence with the management of the different railways about the defects that have come under my notice. But I think that the time has come when I should invite the press and the public to join in a crusade against a grievance which has too long remained unredressed, though much of it is capable of redress without great difficulty.
On the 12th instant I booked at Bombay for Madras by the mail train and paid Rs. 13-9. It was labelled to carry 22 passengers. These could only have seating accommodation. There were no bunks in this carriage whereon passengers could lie with any degree of safety or comfort. There were two nights to be passed in this train before reaching Madras. If not more than 22 passengers found their way into my carriage before we reached Poona, it was because the bolder ones kept the others at bay. With the exception of two or three insistent passengers, all had to find their sleep being seated all the time. After reaching Raichur the pressure became unbearable. The rush of passengers could not be stayed. The fighters among us found the task almost beyond them. The guards or other railway servants came in only to push in more passengers.
A defiant Memon merchant protested against this packing of passengers like sardines. In vain did he say that this was his fifth night on the train. The guard insulted him and referred him to the management at the terminus. There were during this night as many as 35 passengers in the carriage during the greater part of it. Some lay on the floor in the midst of dirt and some had to keep standing. A free fight was, at one time, avoided only by the intervention of some of the older passengers who did not want to add to the discomfort by an exhibition of temper.
On the way passengers got for tea tannin water with filthy sugar and a whitish looking liquid mis-called milk which gave this water a muddy appearance. I can vouch for the appearance, but I cite the testimony of the passengers as to the taste.
Not during the whole of the journey was the compartment once swept or cleaned. The result was that every time you walked on the floor or rather cut your way through the passengers seated on the floor, you waded through dirt.
The closet was also not cleaned during the journey and there was no water in the water tank.
Refreshments sold to the passengers were dirty-looking, handed by dirtier hands, coming out of filthy receptacles and weighed in equally unattractive scales. These were previously sampled by millions of flies. I asked some of the passengers who went in for these dainties to give their opinion. Many of them used choice expressions as to the quality but were satisfied to state that they were helpless in the matter; they had to take things as they came.
On reaching the station I found that the ghari-wala would not take me unless I paid the fare he wanted. I mildly protested and told him I would pay him the authorised fare. I had to turn passive resister before I could be taken. I simply told him he would have to pull me out of the ghari or call the policeman.
The return journey was performed in no better manner. The carriage was packed already and but for a friend's intervention I could not have been able to secure even a seat. My admission was certainly beyond the authorised number. This compartment was constructed to carry 9 passengers but it had constantly 12 in it. At one place an important railway servant swore at a protestant, threatened to strike him and locked the door over the passengers whom he had with difficulty squeezed in. To this compartment there was a closet falsely so called. It was designed as a European closet but could hardly be used as such. There was a pipe in it but no water, and I say without fear of challenge that it was pestilentially dirty.
Which statement most accurately describes how the language in the essay serves Gandhi's purpose?
A. By using straightforward, plain language, Gandhi makes his point clearly and shows his objectively.
B. By stating the passengers' opinions about the taste of the refreshments, Gandhi reveals his superiority, which evokes reader emotion.
C. By using academic vocabulary, Gandhi implies that the intended audience is educated, which motivates readers.
D. By using precise language, Gandhi shows how the European closet in the compartment was inoperable, which evokes strong emotion.

"we're actually closed right now, sir," she said, throwing the towel down, looking at the tall man in a trench coat. "I just want a glass of water," the deep voice said, sending a chill down her spine. She cleared her throat, pointing at a chair in front of her. He sat down as she grabbed a tall glass, filling it with tap water. "you work alone?" he asked chugging down the water. She exhaled and said "actually my boss is in the back," she lied, knowing her boss already left. "oh, well, that's too bad.." he said. she laughed nervously "yep..i-it is," stuttering.

Please complete the sentence with the correct word: She blank the shy kitten
from under the couch. *
tottered
coaxed
unbridled
Answer:
coaxed
Explanation:
tottered means "to sway from side to side", and is usually used to described the swaying someone might do before falling down. why would someone make a cat sway under a couch? it doesn't make sense.
unbridled means "unrestrained". this one isn't even a verb, so it definitely can't be used in the sentence.
coaxed means "to persuade". using this in the sentence would make it mean "she convinced the cat to come out from under the couch". that sounds like it makes sense to me!

I have noticed that many of my plants die due to neglect. People (including me) don't water their plants. This problem effected me and most-likely lots of others very much because we have put in lots of my time and money into making a garden, just for it to fail. In fact, the Ancient Civilization of Egypt collapsed because the Egyptians were not able to properly maintain water levels in plants, leading the plants to wilt, a lack in water because of wasting the water on the plant, the Egyptians to die of dehydration, and the fall of Ancient Egypt. So I made an Arduino-based automatic irrigation system to help other like me and obviously myself maintain a healthy garden. This device will water my plants whenever they are dehydrated, and it will water in correct amounts, due to the soil moisture sensor in the setup. This solution worked, and I feel happy because the solution worked, it was very inexpensive, and it was super easy to make.

plz help i'll choose brainliest
Answer:
D. by explicitly listing other ways of raising money
Explanation:
plato folks
Tricia could strengthen her refutation by explicitly listing other ways to raise money, as shown in option D.
We can arrive at this answer because:
A refutation is an argument that is contrary to another argument that was presented earlier.In this case, the refutation shows that the previous argument is incorrect, or does not present relevant information.For a refutation to be effective, the evidence must be presented that the information in the refutation is correct.In this case, we can affirm that Tricia's refutation would be more efficient and stronger if there was evidence to prove her argument.
This evidence could be presented if she explicitly listed how the city could raise money.

Colin has £25. Dan takes £yy. How much is left?
Answer:
why does dan take colins money
Explanation:
The amount of money that is left is £25 - £y when Colin has £25 and Dan takes £y.
What is the Subtraction operation?Subtraction is a mathematical operation that deducts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.
for example 4 -2 = 2
We have been given that Colin has £25. Dan takes £y
We have to determine the amount of money that is left
As per the given question, the required solution would be as:
If Colin has £25 and Dan takes £y, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £y.
This is because £25 is the original amount of money that Colin has, and £y is the amount that is taken away. When you subtract £y from £25, you are left with the remaining amount of money.
For example, if Dan takes £10, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £10 = £15. If Dan takes £5, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £5 = £20. And so on.
