1 answer:

5 0

In Robert King's story "Country Miles", Carla feels "a little weak" thinking about the distance she and her husband travel because she realizes it is too far.

<h3>What is the story about?</h3>

A lot of the plot of "Country Miles" takes place in Carla's mind. In the first paragraph, as she does the math, she realizes she and her husband travel a lot just by going to work or their parents' houses, only to come back to the same place. That is why she feels "a little weak" just thinking about it. They travel and travel, but never truly leave.

In her imagination, Carla begins to go places. As she thinks of how much she and her husband drive, she begins to see other possibilities - how she could, for example, go to Canada and even further north, to see the lights in the sky.

Therefore, we can say Carla feels a little weak because she realizes they travel too far a distance, and that those miles could be traveled to actually go somewhere more adventurous.

2. What were two negative things that grew out of American<br> expectations during the 1950s?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

1) With the men coming home at the end of World War II, the women were expected to return to their duties as housewives and caretakers. This led to many decades of gender inequality, the effects of it we are still seeing today.

2) With the beginnings of the Cold War on the horizon, many Americans began creating intense and fanatical virtues of nationalism and American pride that, over the years, has incorporated trends of outright racism, bigotry, and misogyny.

<h3>What is a simple subject?</h3>

A sentence's simple subject is one in which only one noun serves as the main verb. An object, place, thing, or idea that is a noun is a subject.

A subject and a verb must be present in every sentence (or predicate). The sentence's focus is identified by the subject, which identifies it.

An object, location, or person doing an action is referred to as a simple subject. A complete subject includes all of the subject's modifiers and adjectives, whereas a simple subject is a single word that describes the topic without any of them.

Examples of Simple Subjects:

Thomas Edison created the lightbulb. The verb "invented" is being "done" in this sentence by "Thomas Edison."
