Answer 1

1.1.1 (a) The narrator, whose name is [not specified], believes that the younger sister should be (b) denied entry to the family house because she chose to marry (c) a certain man. The narrator realizes that the younger sister looks a lot like their (d) deceased mother.

1.1.2 In the given lines (line 1-2), Abdul's attitude suggests that he knew in advance that his son would become a Christian, while Kaltoum seems surprised by this information. Abdul's attitude appears more accepting or resigned, whereas Kaltoum's attitude shows a sense of shock or disbelief.

1.1.3 a) Kaltoum makes Khadija feel cheap by showing her the newspaper article that exposes her husband's conversion to Christianity.

b) Khadija persistently visits the shop on Fridays because it is the day when her husband, who is a Christian, comes to meet her secretly.

1.1.4 a) The figure of speech in the given lines (line 7-8) is irony.

b) This figure of speech is relevant to the story because it highlights the contrast between Khadija's desire for acceptance and love from her husband, who instead beats her. It underscores the harsh reality of her situation and the disappointment she experiences in her relationship.

1.1.5 Whether Khadija can be admired or not is a subjective opinion. One may argue that Khadija's resilience, determination, and willingness to sacrifice for her relationship can be admired. On the other hand, some may criticize her for persisting in an abusive relationship or not standing up for herself. The view on admiring Khadija depends on individual perspectives and values.
