SOMEONE PLZ HELP!!! What will those city planners think up next? Now I hear they want to spend millions of our taxpayer dollars to restore the ancient streetcar tracks and run a line from downtown out to a few of the local neighborhoods, including mine here in the Northeast section. What would be the point of that? I ask you. The way I see it, downtown is mighty congested and doesn't need some quaint little trolley inching along in the middle of rush hour. The only people who'll ride such a thing are tourists, anyway, and no silly streetcar is going to attract more of those. The planners need to wise up and realize that we're not San Francisco—no big hills to shout about, no fancy restaurants. We're just a town like any other, and it's pointless to pretend otherwise. As it stands, there are those who ride the bus to work and those who drive. Putting in a streetcar system isn't going to convert anybody. It'll just be months of obnoxious construction and disruption of our lives so we can brag about a trolley system that should've stayed where it was—on the pages of the history books.

Ajourney with my father adapted from my reminiscences by sir rabindranath tagore probably in order to teach me to be careful, my father placed a little small change in my charge and required me to keep an account of it. he also entrusted me with the duty of winding his valuable gold watch for him. he overlooked the risk of damage in his desire to train me to a sense of responsibility. when we went out together for our morning walk, he would ask me to give alms to any beggars we came across. but i never could render him a proper account at the end of it. one day, my balance was larger than the account warranted. "i really must make you my cashier," observed my father. "money seems to have a way of growing in your hands! " that watch of his i wound up with such indefatigable1 zeal that it had very soon to be sent to the watchmaker's in calcutta. i am reminded of the time when, later in life, i was appointed to manage the estate and had to lay before my father, owing to his failing eyesight, a statement of accounts on the second or third of every month. i had first to read out the totals under each head, and if he had any doubts on any point, he would ask for the details. if i made any attempt to slur over or keep out of sight any item which i feared he would not like, it was sure to come out. so, these first few days of the month were very anxious ones for me. as i have said, my father had the habit of keeping everything clearly before his mind—whether figures of accounts, or ceremonial arrangements, or additions or alterations to property. he had never seen the new assembly hall built at bolpur, and yet, he was familiar with every detail of it from questioning those who came to see him after a visit to bolpur. he had an extraordinary memory, and when once he got hold of a fact, it never escaped him. my father asked me to copy the favourite verses, with their translation, from the book he liked reading every day. at home, i had been a boy of no account. here, when these important functions were entrusted to me, i felt the glory of the situation. 1. tireless 7 how does the narrator support the idea that his father keeps everything clearly before his mind? a. by giving the example of his father's response when his account did not tally with the money that he had in hand b. by mentioning that his father was interested in everything that happened around him c. by giving the example of his father knowing every detail of the new assembly hall at bolpur d. by mentioning that his father had marked his favorite verses from his favorite book
