The best answer is A) Reverent

This excerpt refers to the American Revolution (Columbia was often a way of referring to America at the time). The tone is reverent, meaning admiring or adoring. She describes the celestial choir enthroned in realms of light, which paints an almost god-like picture of the Revolution and the values that the Americans were fighting for.

How are ex nihilo stories different from earth diver stories?
Ede4ka [16]

The correct answer is A. Ex nihilo stories explain the creation of Earth from nothingness, while earth diver stories explain the creation of Earth from water.

Explanation:

A creation myth refers to a narrative that is usually linked to cultural elements and aim at explaining the way the world was created, including different elements on it such as animals, plants or humans. Additionally, there are different types of creation myths narratives according to their features and content. In the case of ex nihilo stories or myths, the Earth and everything on it is created from nothingness usually as the result of the actions or thoughts of a god or divine being, which means before the creation of these elements there was just nothingness. On the other hand,  in Earth diver myths or narratives different elements are created from water especially as a divine force sends an animal or similar to find sand or mud which is used to create land. Considering this, it can be concluded the difference between ex nihilo and earth diver stories is that " Ex nihilo stories explain the creation of Earth from nothingness, while earth diver stories explain the creation of Earth from water".

Which TWO sentences in this excerpt from Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" most closely reflects the central th
tresset_1 [31]

Remark

Let's begin with the theme. What is the theme of this passage, exactly? Four people -- five if you include Dr. Heidegger -- are sitting around a circle bemoaning the fact that they have lost something not granted to anyone. They have lost their second youth. They have swallowed some water which gave them their youth only for a fleeting moment (it seems to them), and they mourn the passage of time that grants them no more youth that they had been living in for some short period.

The four felt that way. Only Dr. Heidegger seemed to have learned something that told him that he should be careful what he wished for: he might actually get it.  

We have two themes then. We have 4 who wished for their youth back and we have one who didn't want any part of it. I think we have to cover both.

The best detail for those wanting it is the old woman who apparently got her youth back and she was incredibly beautiful. Now her hands are skinny and likely wrinkled. She puts those hands to her face and wishes herself to be dead because she despises the fact that she is old (and likely all her friends are dead and she is condemned to a life of weariness. I speculate, but is certainly unhappy about the aging process). She mourns that it is over so quickly. They all do. That's sentence 3.

Only Dr. Heidegger seems to understand that they got something they should never have received in the first place. The yellow sentence beginning with "Well I bemoan it not, ... " reflects his point view as well as anything. That's sentence 5.
