Answer:

nyksl Ambitious

The right answe is "A. He had a speech impediment, so he was worried he would be perceived as weak and unable to win a war."

Often the image that reaches us of great leaders does not show all the nature and personal characteristics behind the figure of leader. George VI possessed a characteristic that was remarkable during all his personal life and that was the main guide line of the film "The Discourse of the King". It is the stammering that persecuted the monarch from the tender age of 4 and that was reason of many difficulties for the King.

Upon his brother's abdication and the decision to take the throne, George VI was forced to face this problem and deal with it throughout his reign. With much training, persistence and courage, the monarch faced this difficulty, worked on his speeches, kept the morale of the population on the rise and became a symbol of British resilience.

In the Ducks and the Blanket story Iktomi is hungry but in both stories he isn't successful in eating the food. Even when he tricked the ducks the wolves got the food and the deer meat disappeared because in both cases he was worried about what ever else was going on and not eating his food. I think this story is trying to tell people to complete tasks before moving on.</span>
