In this excerpt, the author writes about a scene in a war hospital. Read the excerpt and then answer the questions: A man cannot

realize that above such shattered bodies there are still human faces in which life goes its daily round. And this is only one hospital, one single station; there are hundreds of thousands in Germany, hundreds of thousands in France, hundreds of thousands in Russia. How senseless is everything that can ever be written, done, or thought when such things are possible. It must all be lies and of no account when the culture of a thousand years could not prevent this stream of blood being poured out, these torture-chambers in their hundreds of thousands. A hospital alone shows what war is. Look again at the last sentence of the excerpt. In your own words, explain briefly what you think this sentence means.

The last sentence of the passage is:

<em>"A hospital alone shows what war is."</em>

What the sentence tries to explain is that it is in hospitals where we can truly see the effects of war. Hospitals allow us to see the great destruction and death that the war brings. They also allow us to understand the extent and scale of the war, as thousands of bodies arrive in thousands of hospitals. The author believes that the hospitals make you realize how pointless, cruel and overwhelming war truly is.

In 1932 which group marched on Washington demanding a promised payment
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Bonus Army

Explanation:

It was during the Great Depresssions and the WWI veterans were promised a sum of money for fighting in the war. In the depression, money was needed by quite a few people so the bonus army began a march on washington to get the money for fighting in the war, that they deserved. Eventually, the march was unsuccessful and when the veterans returned to their camp, a while later, General MacArthur (I think) came and obliterated the camp.

german

The countries of Europe were very divided after World War I and were in no mood to establish a world changing organization dedicated to promoting world peace and understanding.  The U.S not being a european country( an outsider) may have helped fix problems as a median.  But, congress was not interested in european affairs.
