This meant that Nancy would take care of the upstairs, which included the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The downstairs was Evan’s responsibility and included the garage, the car, and Max the dog. As it is evident to us that this is far from equal, Nancy and Evan described it as the best solution to their dispute. On the surface, this made them both happy. Evan was happy because he had minimal housework to do and still got to call it equal.
This is a prime example of how Odysseus’ good manners and etiquette can manipulate a bitter individual into a content one, which is highly effective for him to ensure his escape from Calypso’s island. A much more effective use of Odysseus’ words is seen in book six when he encounters Nausicaa and her maids. Odysseus’ goal is to plead for help from Nausicaa, however in the revealing state in which he finds himself, he fears he may scare Nausicaa and cause panic. Therefore instead of acting on the normal Greek tradition of grasping ones knees to plea for help, Odysseus states ‘I am at your knees’ as a cunning way to establish safety

Te mangrove ecosystem is dissimilar to the coral reefs in that it is more so on land than the submerged reef further into he water. Mangroves have a lower concentration of Oxygen, more opaque water, and more vegetative biomass than coral reefs. These factors make unintelligent tourists cringe at the idea of keeping these bogs. Wetlands act as a filtration systems for the silt that drifts toward the coast which would otherwise “...clog the coral nutrition tracts and destroy the reef”(Moyers, J.D.). This illustrates the vitality of the re-location of the planned sites of the hotel chains even further
This is used to imply his awareness of the constant shift, however just how unpredictable and inconsistent it really was. At first, Changez is friendly and plays up this element of his personality for both his American guest, by “offering [his] services”, and his companions in Greece, as he could “not prevent myself from carrying her backpack.” Indeed, it is this aspect of Changez that attracts both Erica and gives the reader some reason to empathize with him. Changez presents himself as a respectful, thoughtful person, someone who Erica comments as being “polite.” Despite this, he is clearly out of his element and confused by the environment he is in, Underwood Samson “had the potential to transform my life… making my concerns about money and status things of the distant past.” This ignorance is contrasted with his keen observational sense as well; noting The American sits ”with
The ending to a book like this one must have a powerful well rounded end that this book seems to lack. The ocean is given a seductive trait that lures Edna into its embracement. This makes her seem like she is oblivious to what she is getting into which depicts her as being kind of ignorant or crazy. The ocean is a pointless place to go in order to get away from her family because the ocean serves as a barrier which cannot be passed. Going into the ocean and having her die makes women seem like they cannot survive on their own in life without man.

If the service user has personal space this can make communication easier as the client will then feel comfortable talking to the service provider. The background noise should be kept to a minimal level so that there are no distractions.
After all the chaos that happened throughout the book, the end made it all much better. “His hands were under my chin pulling up the cover, tucking it around me.” (Lee, pg.323) The scene made readers visualize how things are around the house. It was when Atticus tucked Jean Louise to bed; peace and quiet. Having an overwhelming/peaceful surrounding makes sceneries calm. It was my reaction because having a peaceful ending makes everything wrapped up.
Masking Poor Communication Interpersonal Communication Masking Poor Communication After reading the article “Close Relationship Sometime Mask Poor Communication” (Proquest, article, Ashford University Library), I am not surprised at the findings.
