The excerpt that shows the low self-esteem of the soldiers and their belief that being a soldier has nothing to do with bravery from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country," is the sentence “ The three with the medals were like hunting-hawks; and I was not a hawk, although I might seem a hawk to those who had never hunted; they, the three, knew better and so we drifted apart.”

Here are some examples from Hemingway’s "In Another Country" that demonstrate parallelism:

The hospital was very old and very beautiful.

In this first example, the word very before the word old and again before the word beautiful helps maintain the balance of the sentence.

The girls at the Cova were very patriotic, and I found that the most patriotic people in Italy were the café girls—and I believe they are still patriotic.

The word patriotism is repeated three times in this example. Patriotism is one of the important themes of the story.

The three with the medals were like hunting-hawks; and I was not a hawk, although I might seem a hawk to those who had never hunted.

Finally, the word hawk is repeated three times to emphasize how different the speaker was from the other boys. This repetition emphasizes the alienation that the speaker felt in Milan.

Read these lines from the Roosevelt excerpt:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The correct answer is: Willingness to defend the country.

On this excerpt, Roosevelt says that Americans need to embrace their patriotism and put it ahead of their pocketbooks, paying a greater amount of money in taxes in order to pay for a defense program, which ultimately means that they will be defending the country if they support this taxation.

What does the text say about ancient women and power?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The one major public role reserved solely for women was in the sphere of religion: the priestly office of the Vestals. Forbidden from marriage or sex for a period of thirty years, the Vestals devoted themselves to the study and correct observance of rituals which were deemed necessary for the security and survival of Rome but which could not be performed by the male colleges of priests.
