Watch this video of Endurance collapsing. Crew member Frank Hurley captured this footage. How do the tone and representation of
leonid [27]

Your answer should include some of these points:

The scope of the chapter is completely different from that of the video. The video is of a small segment of the expedition.

The video’s mood is gloomy because it shows the destruction of the ship Endurance. Although the memoir describes the three men facing extreme hardship, the mood is less dismal because the men follow their plan with determination.

The video is shot by crew member Frank Hurley, and the memoir is written by Shackleton. As the expedition’s leader, Shackleton’s level of involvement is much deeper than Hurley's.

The tone of the memoir is personal and the point of view is first person. The video is dramatic and evokes shock in the audience.

The memoir is a realistic but emotional description of the trek and evokes both sympathy and hope in readers. The video is realistic and documentary in style.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The Korean War, framed in the global context of the Cold War, was a war between the two newly created factions of North Korea, communist and supported by the USSR and China, and South Korea, democratic and supported by the United States and the western block.

This war began in 1950, when after months of tension the North attacked and took over much of South Korea. But the United States jumped in and pushed the North Koreans back to the Chinese border. Then China got involved and pushed the Americans and South Koreans back.

The communist forces took the democratics to the extreme south of the Korean peninsula, where after the battle of Incheon the latter began an advance to the north. This advance ended at the 38th parallel, where the war turned into a trench warfare without noticeable territorial movements.

This situation lasted until 1953, when a ceasefire was signed between the two Koreas. This ceasefire implied the constitution of two independent nations among themselves: North Korea and South Korea.
