In "My Old Home," what is the main reason that the narrator's mother is somewhat sad when he returns home?

Answer:

She is sad because the narrator's return means that the moment has come when she will need to leave the house where she lived for many years and has many memories.

Explanation:

"My Old Home," shows the moment when the narrator returns to his hometown, after 20 years, to help his family move to another home. The house where the narrator grew up is no longer of the same quality and needs to be abandoned. The narrator feels strange when reviewing the house, because he no longer has the emotional attachment to this place and does not feel that this is his house. He realizes that his mother is also a little sad, probably because she lived in this house for many years and leaving for another house, causes her to leave many precious memories behind.

Massage is the act and art of treating the body through touch. A massage may be done by rubbing, kneading, patting, or similar actions. Such acts help regulate blood circulation, increase flexibility, and relieve tension. The most popular form of massage in America uses Swedish methods. In this method, massage therapists use long smooth strokes, kneading, and circular motions. They apply these motions on the muscle using lotion or oil. Aromatherapy massage uses general massage techniques and scented plant oils. These oils can be relaxing, stress-reducing, energizing, or balancing. Hot stone massage makes the use of heated, smooth stones that are placed on certain points of the body. Gentle pressure is applied with the stones to relieve muscle tension. Deep tissue massage aims to soothe deeper muscle and tissue layers. Thus, the therapists use slower strokes to target deeper into the muscles. Shiatsu, a Japanese form of massage, uses finger pressure in a rhythmic motion. Shiatsu helps improve the flow of energy and regain balance. Like Shiatsu, Thai massage targets specific points on the body for balance. Thai massage also uses stretches and is energizing. There are also specific massages like massages for pregnant women and athletes. In addition, reflexology, or foot massage is done by applying pressure on the foot. The belief is that certain points on the foot correspond to organs and systems in the body. Whatever a person's need, one may try relaxing and refreshing by getting a massage.

which two lines In this excerpt from "Inge's Wall" suggest that Inge was envious of the people on the other side of the wall?
The wall was lust a few feet from the home Inge shared with her parents. Aside from her school and other crumbling buildings In their
nelghborhood, their world was a few rooms In a dull, gray concrete flat with no yard and no trees. The wall was part of the view from the only
windows they had, and Inge was drawn to the sounds she often heard from the other side-laughter, shouting, music, and the nolse of busy
traffic.
One day, as she explored the wall imagining what the sounds meant, she came upon a hole. Her heart thumped wildly as she leaned toward It.
Through the hole, Inge caught a glimpse of whole new world. was world of cplor-reds, blues, and yellows in the dresses of women
strolling down the street, the colors of the shirts and ties the men wore, the colors of the ribbons in the little girls' braids. It was a world of
people who did not begin and end each day in shades of gray. It was alive and brimming with activity, with living. Inge leaned, transfixed by the
vlew, for hours until she began to feel the strain in her back and leg muscles. Then, pulling herself away, she headed home, knowing she would
return again and again.
One fall day In 1990, as Inge headed for her favorite spot in the wall, she noticed that the towers from which the guards vlewed her
nelghborhood were empty. And she noticed something else: she was not alone. Others, mostly young men with a mix of other people, some of
whom she recognized were at already at the wall or moving toward It.
