Answer:

A.a sense of pride in where one lives.

Explanation:

In this sentence, Carl Sandburg demonstrates the theme of having a sense of pride in where one lives. Sandburg tells us that his hometown is Chicago. He tells us of Chicago's problems. The city is "crooked" because of its criminality and its justice system. He also tells us that it is brutal, as inequality is rampant. However, he tells us that despite these problems, people from Chicago are extremely resilient and strong, and this fills him with a sense of pride.

Wiesel writes of his imprisonment, "Within a few seconds, we had ceased to be men." What does he mean by this? How was their man
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Elie Wiesel meant that they were stripped of their manliness, their feeling of men, and a human.

Their manhood or feeling of being a man was robbed when they were ordered to strip and run naked in front of everyone, even if they are strangers.

Explanation:

The memoir <em>Night </em>by Eliezer Wiesel tells the events of the Holocaust and how it had affected the Jews. The book served as a witness to the accounts of the atrocities faced by the Jewish people during the Nazi rule in Germany.

By his statement <em>"Within a few seconds, we had ceased to be men"</em>, Wiesel meant that the rights of men to be men were taken from them. This is because they had stopped caring about their nakedness, their physical appearance. They easily stayed naked and did whatever has been ordered by the soldiers to do. They were dehumanized to mere humans, seemingly without any identity or belonging, barely alive.

And their manhood was robbed off them by making them stripped whenever ordered, no longer ashamed of their nakedness. Had they been in their own homes and not in the camps, they'd never even dream of stripping in front of others, let alone among men and strangers they don't know.

Are these sentences the same
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

No, they're not the same.

The first sentence, "This is very interesting to me" is written in a way the performer of the action while the second sentence, "-I am very interested in it" is the receiver of the action.

From the first sentence, the words are constructed in such a way that the object of the sentence "to me" is receiving the action.

The second sentence, the subject of the sentence "I" is performing the action.
