Explanation:
According to a different source, this question refers to the story "In a Native Village" by Louis Becke.
These are the options that come with this question:
- The narrator claims payment of fines over an incident with his piglets’ tails, but the villagers refuse to pay.
- The narrator bribes the authorities to ensure that he has power and preference over the villagers.
- The narrator thinks he is in control of the situation, but he is repeatedly tricked by the villagers.
- The narrator’s wealth immediately establishes his authority over the villagers, but the villagers do not respect him.
- The narrator establishes a series of declarations and rules to assert authority over the villagers.
In this story, we learn about the experiences of a European man in an island off the coast of Australia. This man arrived to the village with a couple of prized pigs. This, as well as his wealth, is meant to establish him as a leader in the community. However, contrary to expectations, the men in the island do not respect him. Moreover, they constantly trick him and take advantage of him. This shows that the narrator's power over the natives is only an illusion.
He wishes his father would just listen to him about what happened to him in Vietnam and all the horrors he went through and give him credit for the 7 medals he had received for his efforts in the war. However, his father was in a rather depressed state and did not see medals as a measure of a man's ability or heroism. All his son wanted to do was get some of the pressures of the war off his chest and be admired some by his dad but it was useless and it just had to keep it inside. The guilt and the good that he felt was a burden he carried. He also wished his father would recognize what a good soldier he himself had been instead of withdrawing to himself after the war. As a result he sees and feels no use for his life after the war
