Which three parts of these excerpts reflect the idea that war affects not only the minds of the combatants but also their physic

al reactions?
Ambush
by Tim O'Brien (excerpt)

There was no sound at all--none that I can remember. In a way, it seemed, he was part of the morning fog, or my own imagination, but there was also the reality of what was happening in my stomach. I had already pulled the pin on a grenade. I had come up to a crouch. It was entirely automatic. I did not hate the young man; I did not see him as the enemy; I did not ponder issues of morality or politics or military duty. I crouched and kept my head low. I tried to swallow whatever was rising from my stomach, which tasted like lemonade, something fruity and sour. I was terrified. There were no thoughts about killing. The grenade was to make him go away--just evaporate--and I leaned back and felt my mind go empty and then felt it fill up again.


Symptoms
by John Steinbeck (excerpt)

They would discuss their experiences right up to the time of battle and then suddenly they wouldn't talk anymore. This was considered heroic in them. It was thought that they had seen or done was so horrible that they didn't want to bring it back to haunt them or their listeners. But many of these men had no such consideration in any other field.

Only recently have I found what seems to be a reasonable explanation, and the answer is simple. They did not and do not remember--and the worse the battle was, the less they remember.

In all kinds of combat the whole body is battered by emotion. The ductless glands pour their fluids into the system to make it able to stand up to the great demand on it. Fear and ferocity are products of the same fluid.

There are two lines in Tim O'Brien's excerpt. First, In a way, it seemed, he was part of the morning fog, or my own imagination, but there was also the reality of what was happening in my stomach. This line depicts that what he imagined is not only up to his head, but it is real to the point that his imagination evokes a reaction to his stomach. Second, I tried to swallow whatever was rising from my stomach, which tasted like lemonade, something fruity and sour. He feels nauseous as his mind filled with images of what he experienced. For John Steinbeck's excerpt, the line would be In all kinds of combat the whole body is battered by emotion. The ductless glands pour their fluids into the system to make it able to stand up to the great demand on it. He describes his body's physical reaction to his emotional distress. How he was physically affected by his strong emotions.

Which sentences most likely belong in the resolution paragraph of a narrative? Select two options. Before I could even explain,
jeka57 [31]

Answers:

  • "I can replace the window," he said, putting his arm around my shoulders, "but I can't replace you."
  • The audience stood up, cheering wildly, and I've never felt so relieved in my life.

The resolution paragraph of a narrative is the section in which the main conflict of the story is resolved. In the first section, the character appears to be having an epiphany. An epiphany is a sudden realization, most often triggered by a new event or piece of information. Epiphanies are often found towards the end of narratives.

In the second example, the character's conflict is the anxiety regarding the reaction of the audience. As the audience stands up and cheers, the conflict is resolved. This is why the character feels "relieved."

On January 16, 1917, in a clear attempt to convince the Mexican government to help Germany in the war, Arthur Zimmermann, the Ge
Zanzabum

Answer:   U-boats were designed to make sure that messages being transported were secured.

Explanation: With the question and answer choices, it is a bit confusing at first. We see that, it’s talking about implications over explicit actualities, so we can remove the first and last choice about the message being important, while Zimmermann was looking for help. Both are explicitly stated in the excerpt, so it gives us a detailed account for why he was asking Mexico to assist Germany. It was not that stated that Mexico was expecting the message, and it was not hinted, since Germany is stated to only have gone through proper channels. They are trying to make sure they don't get caught, but one side is unaware of what is occurring. That leaves the U-boat choice, which seems like an accurate, implied statement from what is given. Nothing was suggested about the U-boat other than its level of transportation and method of delivery, but it is enough to infer. U-boats are stated to be for diplomatic channels and have to take certain routes, so the audience can think of its secrecy and security without being told.
