Answer:
About a non-divisive United States, that we should share our beloved country, no matter our race, background, etc.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer would be option b:"The author once felt pride and optimism about the war".
Explanation:
In the excerpt, the author says that "he was proud of the young American pilots sitting at the controls in the cockpit" and that "he was grateful for the opportunity to witness this adventure and report it".
It just says that he was excited to get on a U.S Army helicopter, it does not say nor infer that is was his first flying experience, therefore, option a is incorrect.
It doesn't say and it cannot be inferred that the U.S soldiers are trained in hand to hand combat, so option c is also incorrect.
The author barely mentions the Vietcong guerillas, and he does not seem to have any respect for them since he was excited about war, so option d is also incorrect.
The basic idea of this quote )and the lines that come before it) is that one must live life to the fullest extent possible. Thoreau is giving this as his reason for coming out into the woods. He doesn't want to be in the position where, when he's about to die, he realizes that he never really lived.
I think so yes but then I might be wrong but yes I think he does
