1a) the significance of the first Opening sentence of
the story is that Carrie does not like to work for free in India, because the
first sentence is ‘’Sharing doesn’t work’’. In addition, by that she might
think that when she is working there, she feels like it does not work.

3e)"in this part of town buildings are pressed thin by other buildings, rooms are compressed to corridors" The writer gives life to the building, and this might be claustrophobic for Carrie
3f)"sharp voives ricochet off the walls" this might be ment as that the children makes load noises all the time, and it is to mutch for Carrie.
