’s opposition to conventional ideas of patriotism? 1 "NO, YOU DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO GET KILLED" Mrs. Gearson repeated in a voice which was startlingly like George's again. 2 "YOU JUST EXPECTED HIM TO KILL SOMEONE ELSE, SOME OF THOSE FOREIGNERS, THAT WEREN'T THERE BECAUSE THEY HAD ANY SAY ABOUT IT, BUT BECAUSE THEY HAD TO BE THERE, POOR WRETCHES—CONSCRIPTS, OR WHATEVER THEY CALL 'EM. You thought 3 "IT WOULD BE ALL RIGHT FOR MY GEORGE, YOUR GEORGE, TO KILL THE SONS OF THOSE MISERABLE MOTHERS AND THE HUSBANDS OF THOSE GIRLS THAT YOU WOULD NEVER SEE THE FACES OF." The woman lifted her powerful voice in a psalm-like note. 4 "I THANK MY GOD HE DIDN'T LIVE TO DO IT! I THANK MY GOD THEY KILLED HIM FIRST, AND THAT HE AIN'T LIVIN' WITH THEIR BLOOD ON HIS HANDS!"

ROMEO AND JULIET
Art [367]

Answer: For film you can say they changed the time period drastically.

Write about a time when your best friend surprised you. What was the surprise? What was your reaction? Did you enjoy it? Do you
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The time when my best friend surprised me was some days after my birthday.

He brought a huge cake and completely shocked me, and that was early in the morning.

I was elated, excited, shocked, all forms of happiness and surprise.

Yes, I did really enjoyed it.

I definitely think it is good to sometimes give surprises to others. We may not know what is happening to them, but surprises make people forget their sadness and bring happiness, even if temporary.

Explanation:

On my birthday, my best friend surprised me with a birthday cake. He brought it and came to my home without any notice early in the morning.

The surprise was a success, for I genuinely loved not only the cake but also the gesture. I was utterly shocked that he would even do that, considering it was already some days after my real birthday. But the surprise was a welcome surprise.  

I think it is indeed good to give people surprises, for it makes the other person so happy. It was, at least for me. I never imagined that will happen to me, but it did and I really enjoyed it. And we never know what’s going on with people. So, surprises may bring temporary happiness, but it provides relief from the problems for some time, and that’s still better.
