One of the main parts of this goal is to eliminate gender disparity in primary and secondary education (UN MDGs). However‚ in order to do this the first goal‚ end poverty and hunger‚ must also be accomplished.

hydrogen substitution. However‚ this is not thermodynamically favoured because a sp3 hybridized carbon is generated‚ which disrupts the cyclic conjugation. In order to regenerate the aromatic ring‚ a proton is lost at the sp3 hybridized carbon. Thus‚ p-Nitroaniline can be prepared by means of electrophilic aromatic substitution. To begin‚ nitric acid needs to be activated as it has little electrophilic power. Thus‚ concentrated sulfuric acid is added to protonate the nitric acid. Dehydration produces

The Boys of "A & P" and "Araby" John Updike’s "A & P" and James Joyce’s "Araby" are very similar. The theme of the two stories is about a young man who is interested in figuring out the difference between reality and the fantasies of romance that play in his head and of the mistaken thoughts each has about their world‚ the girls‚ and themselves. One of the main similarities between the two stories is the fact that the main character has built up unrealistic expectations of women. Both characters

Immaturity Every coming of age story of the development of someone to maturity first starts with immaturity. In John Updike’s short story “A&P” he writes about a 19 year old named Sammy who grows up through his immaturity. In this essay I will be writing about how John Updike uses analogies‚ point of view‚ and plot to describe Sammy’s coming of age story. In this coming of age story the immaturity of Sammy is largely presented in the analogies he uses. For example when Updike writes‚ “… twenty-seven
