Mark lies sleepless, his supine eyes rolling as he counts the rafters- vertically, horizontally, diagonally-over and over. There is continual rumbling in his belly. Lying so still, whom can he blame now? Isn't it his own fault to be like this? Three months ago, Atongo and Agbenya said they were leaving town because "things have become too hard." as they put it. They asked Mark to come along. He declined saying that he would have to prepare. Of course, he simply could not go-dare not. He had a pact with Akwele who sells kenkey downtown: neither could leave town without the other. At the time Mark's friends were ready, Akwele had travelled to Accra and would, unknown to anyone, not return in a hurry. This is why Mark is lying dejected on his bed, a hungry man. Anyhow, he is not an angry man.

Detalhes da Resposta
The term "immediate" in the question suggests that we are looking for an act that directly led to a negative outcome or consequence. Among the unlucky deeds listed, the immediate one is the killing of Desdemona. This is because the murder of Desdemona is the direct cause of the tragic ending of the play, as it leads to the discovery of Iago's lies and the suicide of Othello. The other deeds listed may have contributed to the overall tragic outcome, but they were not the immediate cause of the tragedy. Therefore, the correct answer is: "the killing of Desdemona".

FRANK OGODO OGBECHE - Harvest of Corruption
To what extent can Aloho’s tragedy be blamed on the society?
In "Harvest of Corruption" by Frank Ogodo Ogbeche, Aloho's tragedy can be largely attributed to the corrupt and dysfunctional society in which she lives. Throughout the play, we see how the system is rigged against ordinary people like Aloho, who are forced to resort to unethical means just to survive.
One way in which the society is to blame is through its lack of opportunities for people like Aloho. As a young woman with few prospects, she is lured into a life of prostitution as a means of making ends meet. This is not a choice she would have made if she had access to education, job opportunities, or other means of support.
Moreover, the play shows how corruption is deeply embedded in the society, with virtually everyone from the police to the judiciary to the political elite being involved in some form of corrupt activity. This makes it difficult for someone like Aloho to seek justice when she is wronged, as the system is inherently biased against her.
Finally, the play also highlights the issue of gender inequality in the society. Aloho's status as a woman makes her particularly vulnerable to exploitation and abuse, as she has little power or agency in a system that is dominated by men.
Overall, while Aloho bears some responsibility for the choices she makes, the society in which she lives plays a significant role in shaping her fate. The play underscores the need for systemic change in order to address the root causes of corruption and inequality.

Discuss the significance of Agbogbloshie Market in the novel.
Agbogbloshie Market is significant in the novel "Faceless" by Amma Darko because it serves as a symbol of the social, economic, and political issues facing the people of Ghana. The market is a place where people come to buy and sell goods, but it is also a place where poverty, corruption, and exploitation are rampant.
The novel portrays the market as a hub of criminal activities such as drug trafficking and prostitution, which are fueled by poverty and desperation. The market also serves as a meeting place for the homeless and the destitute who struggle to survive in a society that has failed them.
Through the character of Maa Tsuru, a prostitute and mother of the murdered girl, the author shows how women are particularly vulnerable to exploitation and abuse in the market. Maa Tsuru is a victim of rape and domestic violence, and her daughter is ultimately killed because of the dangerous environment of the market.
Furthermore, the market represents the failure of the government to provide basic services and infrastructure to its citizens. The lack of sanitation and access to clean water leads to the spread of diseases and environmental degradation. The market also highlights the corruption of government officials who turn a blind eye to the illegal activities in the market in exchange for bribes.
Overall, Agbogbloshie Market in "Faceless" is a powerful symbol of the social, economic, and political challenges facing Ghana and other developing countries.

OLIVER GOLDSMITH - SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER
Discuss the role of Tony Lumpkin in connection with any three mistakes in the play.
Tony Lumpkin is a key character in Oliver Goldsmith's play "She Stoops to Conquer," and his actions play a crucial role in shaping the plot. In connection with three mistakes made in the play, Tony is an instrumental character.
Firstly, Tony's mistake in directing Marlow and Hastings to Mr. Hardcastle's house rather than the intended inn results in the confusion that drives much of the play's humor. Tony has a reputation for practical jokes, and this misdirection is one of his most significant. It sets the scene for Marlow and Hastings' assumption that they are staying at an inn rather than at the Hardcastle's home, allowing them to behave inappropriately around Kate and Constance.
Secondly, Tony mistakenly believes that his stepbrother Constance Neville's dowry is in a casket in the possession of Mrs. Hardcastle. As a result, he hatches a plan to steal the casket and thus Constance's dowry. However, Tony's mistake is that he is unaware that the casket's contents have already been removed, and it is empty. This mistake sets the stage for the farcical subplot involving Tony, Constance, and the stolen casket.
Thirdly, Tony's mistake in disguising himself as the highwayman and attempting to rob Marlow and Hastings leads to another series of misunderstandings. Marlow and Hastings assume that the supposed highwayman is a real threat, but Tony's antics turn the situation into a comedy. Tony's antics, combined with his previous mistakes, drive the play's action forward and lead to its eventual resolution.
In summary, Tony Lumpkin's character plays a pivotal role in shaping the events of the play, and his three key mistakes drive much of the humor and confusion that make "She Stoops to Conquer" such an enjoyable and timeless work of comedy.

Firstly, Tony's mistake in directing Marlow and Hastings to Mr. Hardcastle's house rather than the intended inn results in the confusion that drives much of the play's humor. Tony has a reputation for practical jokes, and this misdirection is one of his most significant. It sets the scene for Marlow and Hastings' assumption that they are staying at an inn rather than at the Hardcastle's home, allowing them to behave inappropriately around Kate and Constance.
Secondly, Tony mistakenly believes that his stepbrother Constance Neville's dowry is in a casket in the possession of Mrs. Hardcastle. As a result, he hatches a plan to steal the casket and thus Constance's dowry. However, Tony's mistake is that he is unaware that the casket's contents have already been removed, and it is empty. This mistake sets the stage for the farcical subplot involving Tony, Constance, and the stolen casket.
Thirdly, Tony's mistake in disguising himself as the highwayman and attempting to rob Marlow and Hastings leads to another series of misunderstandings. Marlow and Hastings assume that the supposed highwayman is a real threat, but Tony's antics turn the situation into a comedy. Tony's antics, combined with his previous mistakes, drive the play's action forward and lead to its eventual resolution.
In summary, Tony Lumpkin's character plays a pivotal role in shaping the events of the play, and his three key mistakes drive much of the humor and confusion that make "She Stoops to Conquer" such an enjoyable and timeless work of comedy.

Examine three features of metaphysical poetry in “The Pulley”.
"The Pulley" is a poem that exemplifies metaphysical poetry in several ways. Here are three features of metaphysical poetry that are evident in the poem:
1. Conceits: Metaphysical poetry often uses extended metaphors or "conceits" to explore complex ideas or emotions. In "The Pulley," the idea of God as a "pulley" is a conceit that runs throughout the poem. The pulley represents God's love for humanity, which is both uplifting and potentially dangerous, since it could lead to pride and self-sufficiency. This conceit helps to explore the tension between humanity's desire for material wealth and the spiritual emptiness that can result from achieving it.
2. Paradoxes: Another feature of metaphysical poetry is the use of paradoxes to express complex or contradictory ideas. In "The Pulley," the paradox of God withholding something from humanity (rest) in order to give them something else (eternal life) is a central theme. The idea that God's love could be both generous and withholding at the same time is a paradox that highlights the complexity of human spirituality.
3. Intellectual Wit: Metaphysical poetry often features intellectual wit, which is characterized by wordplay, puns, and clever metaphors. In "The Pulley," the use of the image of a pulley to represent God's love is a clever metaphor that requires the reader to think beyond the literal meaning of the word. The pun on the word "rest" is another example of intellectual wit, as it plays on the multiple meanings of the word to create a deeper sense of meaning.
Overall, "The Pulley" exhibits several features of metaphysical poetry, including conceits, paradoxes, and intellectual wit. These elements combine to create a complex and thought-provoking poem that explores the relationship between God and humanity.
