Read the poem. excerpt from “I Explain a Few Things” by Pablo Neruda And one morning all was aflame and one morning the fires ca

me out of the earth devouring people, and from then on fire, gunpowder from then on, and from then on blood. Bandits with airplanes and with Moors, bandits with rings and duchesses, bandits with black-robed friars blessing came through the air to kill children, and through the streets the blood of children ran simply, like children’s blood. Jackals that the jackal would spurn, stones that the dry thistle would bite spitting, vipers that vipers would abhor! Facing you I have seen the blood of Spain rise up to drown you in a single wave of pride and knives! Refer to Explorations in Literature for a complete version of this poem. Which explanation about “I Explain a Few Things” best develops the speaker’s viewpoint that adversity only makes his compatriots stronger? The image of friars blessing the bombs that kill the children provides an example of why those under attack are anxious to fight back. By portraying the fires, gunpowder, and blood, the speaker shows that the horror of this war will only end when their opponents give up. The image of fellow citizens rising up and drowning the enemy in a wave of “pride and knives” demonstrates that they will remain defiant. By describing their opponents as “Jackals that the jackal would spurn,” the speaker stresses that an enemy this brutal is difficult to stand against.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The image of fellow citizens rising and drowning the enemy in a wave of “pride and knives” demonstrates that they will remain defiant. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The above explanation develops the viewpoint of the speaker that it is only diversity that makes patriots durable. According to the given statement, person or a country’s character usually prevails during difficult times. This then helps them to get inner courage that is essential in fighting endurance as well as liberty. Most poets across the word use poetic gestures to promote solidarity among immigrants. However, this has ironically become a globalized technocracy world. This is because of the panic that is generated by different parties.

Answer:

First Muir described how he slept sometimes without supper, and then he says he had no difficulty finding a loaf of bread at the farmers' houses. He starts of the paragraph with a complaint of sleeping without blankets, and starts to transition again into nature and its beauty.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Society and Class is one of the themes of Don Quixote.

Explanation:

There are many themes in the "Don Quixote" by "Miguel de Cervantes" like Social and class, madness, loyalty, race, madness, morality.

Cervantes's novel shows the difference between the class of a person and his worth. In Don Quixote, Cervantes argues the traditional thinking that if a person is an aristocrat, he is respectable and noble. But Duke and Duches are frivolous and unkind though they are aristocrats in the story. On the other hand, though Sancho has low social status and is a farmer, he is wise and thoughtful.  

In Don Quixote, two people who love each other are asked to live apart  apart because of their social class and Cervantes also suggests that quality of a person is more important than his social class.

Read the excerpt from "It's Only Fair.”
KatRina [158]

The advantage of changing this excerpt to Avery's first-person point of view would be to get more background on why Maritza treats Avery this way.

When we have a different perspective of the story we can have access to much more complete characters this is the real advantage of doing that.

It is not necessary to compare Rosa Parks and Irene Morgan's stories since the characters we are talking about are in fact, Maritza and Avery.
