Based on the 1925 serum run to Nome
Describe what made the terrain around Nome perilous? How did this contribute to the heroism of the dog teams?
Answer:
Located in the Alaskan tundra, the route to Nome crossed a 5000-foot mountain peak and the unstable ice of Norton Sound, ill-famed for breaking under pressure. Furthermore, the sea was frozen for seven months during the winter, meaning that dog sleds were the only way of transportation at the time. In addition to that, the “Great Race of Mercy” happened in the middle of a great storm.
Explanation:
All of these elements made the five days journey to get the serum required to save Nome (which should have taken a month) that much more heroic.

Explanation:
Here is a sentence with the word "gesture".
<u>Peter's gift was a very kind gesture.</u>
As for the connection of the word "gesture" with its root: the gift actually "carries" kindness or "performs" an act of kindness.

<u><em>Ironic and absurd

<u><em>In my opinion, ironic and absurd are the adjective that characterize Vonnegut’s tone. Infact his novel’s black humor is built in a way to get to the absurd when, for example, he refers to the prisoners that in his point of view are similar to animals as “meat locker”.

<u><em>Otherwise the dialogue of Wild Bob is a clear example of the second one, he lost his soldiers in the battle. He had assured them that are many Germans dead that are praying God not to meet him and his soldiers, his words are a clear moment of absurdity when we realized that he lost his mind.

Honestly, all of them can. I would select them all. Context is the only one that’s iffy, but context is also important because words can have connotative meanings that alter their meaning and tone.
