Norman repeatedly says how he *almost* won the Silver Star for valor. At first, it appears as a boast; as though he discusses how he was very close to being recognized as a hero. After we find out what happens to Kiowa, that sentence changes meaning. Is Norman actually bragging about almost winning the star, or is he trying to say something else?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Norman was not actually bragging about him getting to win the silver cup of man of valor rather he was lost in his thought of how he couldn't save kiowa from death and he needed to tell someone about his story. He started rehearsing how to share it with his father by starting with the fact that he almost won the silver award for valor but couldn't get to terms that he could not save Kiowa.

The award was usually given by the military but Normans father never believe in award as the true test of one's goodness and it is one of the challenge Norman is having in relating his ordeal to his father.

Dear Dad,

Hope you are doing good. I hope you get that promotion you've always been craving for and that funny looking Ms. Green stops bothering you at work during your lunch break.

I am writing you to tell you the recent problems i have been having since we entered summer and how i have been finding it difficult to sleep due to the high temperature in  the house. My inability to get a decent eight hours of sleep is beginning to tell in my studies as i have been found dozing off in class on more than one occasion and my concentration levels have not been optimal.

I believe this issue of high temperature in the house which causes discomfort and is affecting me in school can be rectified with the installation of an air conditioner in the house. Dad, i know you want me to succeed in class and not to lose sleep because of the heatwave, so i believe you will consider my request favorably. I love you.

What is a theme found

Answers

Answer:

Work

Explanation:

The dominant theme of the poem “I Hear America Singing” is work, specifically hard and intense manual labor. Whitman clearly dedicates the poem to people who work hard day by day: mechanics, carpenters, masons, boatmen, deckhands, shoemakers, hatters, wood-cutters, ploughboys, mothers, wives or girls. These types of people who perform manual labor and are physically active are called ‘blue-collar workers’. Notice the absence of ‘while-collar workers’ in Whitman’s poem: doctors, poets, teachers or writers. It becomes quite obvious that Whitman had a sort of disgust for ‘white-collar workers’, whom he probably considered not worthy of being mentioned.

The railroad track is miles away,
And the day is loud with voices speaking,
Yet there isn't a train goes by all day
But I hear its whistle shrieking.
All night there isn't a train goes by,
Though the night is still for sleep and dreaming,
But I see its cinders red on the sky,
And hear its engine steaming.
My heart is warm with friends I make,
And better friends I'll not be knowing;
Yet there isn't a train I wouldn't take,
No matter where it's going.

Answer:

The narrator is preoccupied by a desire to travel.

Explanation:

In the poem "Travel," by Edna St. Vincent Millay, the speaker expresses an intense yearning for traveling. In fact, she is so obsessed and absorted in her dreams and eagerness about traveling, that during the day she can hear the whistle of a train. Besides, at night she cannot sleep but sees the train's "ciders red on the sky" and hears the sound of a steaming engine. Thus, she has a fascination with traveling, since she would take any train and go anywhere, and she believes she would make the best of friends.

Then, in 1887, yet another copy of the decree—this one almost intact—was unearthed in the ruins of a temple in Lower Egypt. Now, for the first time, scholars had a version of the hieroglyphic text that they could compare line-for-line with the Greek and demotic versions.


New translations of the hieroglyphic text were made in France and Germany, and an excellent English one appeared in 1904. A few sections still remain unclear, though. This makes present-day experts hope that an even more complete copy of the hieroglyphic inscription may yet be found, somewhere in Egypt.

The answer is D I believe

The author cites this information in the article to highlight the environmental impact of meat production, consumption, and disposal.

What are the negative effects of meat consumption?

Meat consumption has several negative effects on both the environment and human health. The production of meat requires large amounts of water and land, which can lead to deforestation, soil degradation, and water pollution.

The livestock industry is also a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute to climate change. In terms of human health, consuming too much red and processed meat has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some forms of cancer.

Additionally, meat can often be high in saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium, which can also contribute to these health issues. Consuming a diet high in plant-based foods has been shown to have numerous health and environmental benefits.
