Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.I hope this helps!

Answer:
Explanation:
The issue of health care reforms did not start when President Obama took office. The debate on healthcare has been ongoing. There have been many attempts in an attempt to bring revolutions in healthcare. The past efforts have failed in the past due to weak regimes, insufficient lobbying, differences in ideology and maybe the complexity of the issue. The issue of reforms was started in the 1800 but started being debated upon in the 1930s. The Great Depression was the most contributing factor that lead to the bringing up of this issue. This is because many people did not have employment and could not afford healthcare. There was therefore a need to have affordable healthcare.
The issue of health care reform has been taken differently by the Republicans and Democrats. Republicans believe that the healthcare reforms will meant that there will be more taxes that will be imposed for the wealthy in the society. They believe that it is the wealthy who create jobs invest. If they are heavily taxed, this will mean that they will no longer be able to create more jobs and invest. They state that if the program is to be introduced, then it should not eat into the hard work of the wealthy. This would be punishing the wealthy group in the society. Another view of the republicans is that the ideology is totally wrong. They believe that the government should not control the lives of citizens too much. They believe that individuals should work in order to get what they want in life. Another issue with republicans is that of deficit of American budget. They argue that healthcare reforms will be carried out at the expense of the already fleecing budget.
The views of the Democrats is that health care insurance is part of the promise for America that was made by the forefathers. They believe that each and every citizen should have access to quality healthcare. They believe that there should be no cancelation of coverage basing on family or gender issues. Another issue that they advocate is that healthcare should not be privatized. The senior Americans should not be made to pay more for the needy in the society. They believe that the less privileged in the society should be taken care of by all Americans. The third issue that the Democrats advocate for is that they advocate for wider coverage and reduced healthcare costs. They believe that many people should have access to healthcare at rates which are reduced and affordable (Brookham, 2006 73).
The congress are against the reforms that are being advocated in healthcare. They do not approve the approach that health care is being taken. This is something that is bringing some discord in the congress.
The past presidents of the United States have had varying opinions on healthcare reforms. Most presidents wanted to move away from state type of healthcare to a more comprehensive one that could be integrated with social security. Roosevelt and Truman failed to bring these implementations in the health care sector. This was because employers were giving better benefits and there was promises that it could get better with time. There was no cooperation with the big corporations and the reforms failed. President Clinton came up with the issue of reforms in the 1990s. He came up with The Health Security Act which was universal and the government would be tasked with running it. He argued that the costs would be cut down completely. Many people supported some part of the initiative of Clinton but waited for the parts they did not like to be changed before fully supporting it. Under President Obama, there are still issues that need to be addressed in the healthcare reforms. There are strides that have been made in reforms. The Obama administration have succeeded to enable people not to be excluded from any coverage because of conditions which are preexisting.
<u>Answer:</u>
Option E. One quality of a good research question is that it provides specific details of the context.
<u>Explanation:</u>
It is very important that the person who is required to answer the question understands it well otherwise the answer will not help the researcher. For example, if the researcher is researching ‘teenagers’, the question needs to specify what aspect is being referred to. Is it their behaviour with peers, with teachers or with parents or is it their attitude towards particular things?
For instance, a research question can be framed as :
What is the attitude of teenagers towards their peers in school? Unless the question is detailed well, the answer will not meet the expectations of the researcher.
