Answer:

<em>A Slight Misunderstanding </em>is a light-hearted story by J B Boothroyd where he gives several instances of misunderstanding that occurs between the narrator, a farmer and his wife.

The story begins on a Saturday when the narrator just bought groceries and also there is a mention about a small black car he recently acquired but he mistakenly enters his car and finds a woman's handbag in the chair because she carelessly left it in his car.

He thinks he entered a wrong car because he attracts the attention of the farmer's dog and also the handbag he saw in the car. But eventually he sees the address of his house on the dog's collar.

He gets to the farmer's house and returns the bags and explains his confusion at first but realized he was in the right car when he checked the plate number. The farmer apologizes for his wife's carelessness and offers him a cup of coffee and they both have a good laugh about it.

Another similar case occurred after a social visit with his wife and when they go back to their car, they realized they have really gotten into the wrong car because of the different things in the car.

How are the themes of The Colored Soldiers" and "War Is Kind different?
77julia77 [94]
War is kind is definitely all about a war. The title is an irony what really a war is. The real thing is that war is very unkind and is happening always because there people who send soldiers to wars not thinking about their deaths. On the other hand, The Colored soldiers is a poem to praise black men who served the Army during the civil war. These soldiers fight for freedom from slavery even though they know the risks of their actions and that it may cause them harm.

The pun is related to the same pronunciation of the words <em>Ernest</em> and <em>earnest </em>which means<em> serious commited, dedicated </em>and etc. The pun is connected to the serious issue of choosing the right significant other, someone you can trust that is dedicated to you (<em>an earnest husband/wife</em>).<em> </em>
