Answer:
The focus of the book is what is now known as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Over time, the author explains how soldiers' stress and demand for aid have evolved. They use the word "shell shock" as an illustration of how the term came to be used. Compared to the names it was afterwards referred to, the author feels this two-syllable phrase was simpler and more straightforward. "The pain is completely buried under jargon," it is said. I'll bet if they had still been calling it "shell shock," some of those Vietnam veterans might have received the attention they needed. Authors argue that troops were better served by the original word, shell shock, since it didn't have a long phrase and many more syllables. When a soldier is "on the edge of a nervous collapse," he or she is said to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

<span>Aminadab is a total oddball character. There isn't a whole lot of text devoted to him in "The Birthmark," but what is there speaks volumes. Hawthorne describes Aminadab as "a man of low stature, but bulky frame, with shaggy hair hanging about his visage, which was grimed with the vapors of the furnace" . He is actually a little creepy, if not vaguely sinister. We learn that he isn't capable of understanding the science behind Aylmer's work, but that he can execute all the physical details easily. And then, of course, we have the very direct line.</span>
Answer:
I never believed that someone could be truly cold-hearted. I thought that even the worst people must have had some amount of good in them. Once I first heard about (random name), though, my thoughts started to change. Hearing about the savagery of their actions was the start. Then I saw (random name) for the first time. They were swaggering down the path in an uncaring but confident manner, as though they had done no wrong. I stood tongue-tied, watching them get closer and closer, then I realized (random name) was walking towards me!

Subject: unhygienic condition of the park
Sir,
Through the esteem column of your newspaper, I resident of Hudson Valley would like to bring your kind attention towards the problem of an unhygienic condition of the parks in our area.
For the past one month, the garbage collector van does not come regularly. Due to this, there has been heavy garbage collected in the park. Also, the nearby residents throw the waste in the park as they pass by. The waste has been heavily deposited in the bin that it’s producing a foul smell. Such a smell is harmful to the nearby residents also for the children who play in the park. It attracts various insects and microorganism which is causing sickness among the children as well as elders. Also, the stray animals feed on this garbage, it has become unsafe for the children to play in the park.
The concerned authority should check for the regular cleaning of the area. Also, there should be a penalty charged on the person who is found dumping any form of garbage in the park. We as responsible citizens should make sincere efforts to keep our area clean and hygienic.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully
Xyz.
