The main character is trapped, but he can get out with a key.

There's nothing that indicates imminent danger or any external tension, so we can discard the idea of fighting for survival or even being a prisoner in a wartime (that would be a stretch). Being locked up might be a representation of many things, but being exiled is most likely not one of them. Exile envolves distance and loneliness, not being locked up.

In the end, the idea of being alone, trapped in barrel cage with a lock fits the idea of "figuring a way to escape" (there's a lock, it means that there's a key).

The correct answer is:

A. The main character is trapped by a life choice and must figure out a way to escape.

After extended use of the drugs that treat HIV, the virus often becomes resistant and the drugs no longer work. True or False
ddd [48]

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes HIV infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome over time (AIDS). AIDS is the condition of an organism in which a progressive decline in the immune system allows dangerous infections and the inability of an organism to naturally defend itself from them. HIV infects vital cells in the human immune system. Controlling HIV / AIDS usually involves the use of several antiretroviral drugs, both because of the different types of organism in humans, and because of the resilience of the virus acquired during treatment with the same drugs. In some parts of the world, treatments have become so successful that HIV has become a chronic condition, with very rare progress in AIDS.

Your statement is true.

How do about the war differ from president Lincoln
BabaBlast [244]

Abraham Lincoln was an American statesman and lawyer who served as the 16th president of the United States from 1861 to 1865. Lincoln led the nation through the American Civil War, the country's greatest moral, constitutional, and political crisis. He succeeded in preserving the Union, abolishing slavery, bolstering the federal government, and modernizing the U.S. economy.

Lincoln was born into poverty in a log cabin and was raised on the frontier primarily in Indiana. He was self-educated and became a lawyer, Whig Party leader, Illinois state legislator, and U.S. Congressman from Illinois. In 1849, he returned to his law practice but became vexed by the opening of additional lands to slavery as a result of the Kansas–Nebraska Act. He reentered politics in 1854, becoming a leader in the new Republican Party, and he reached a national audience in the 1858 debates against Stephen Douglas. Lincoln ran for President in 1860, sweeping the North in victory. Pro-slavery elements in the South equated his success with the North's rejection of their right to practice slavery, and southern states began seceding from the union. To secure its independence, the new Confederate States fired on Fort Sumter, a U.S. fort in the South, and Lincoln called up forces to suppress the rebellion and restore the Union.
