Answer:
The sentence regarding tourists overlooking Hokkaido states a fact if the speaker has looked up the number of tourists and knows for sure that the other islands receive more visitors. However, from sources I have checked, it is Shikoku that is the least visited of the 4 major islands so this complicates the question response.
Explanation:
The sentence regarding the number of tourists who visit Hokkaido compared to the other Japanese islands is likely stating a fact because it is assumed the speaker has looked this up or has some experience with tourism to know that the other islands do receive more visitors. To make it an opinion, the sentence would say something like "To me, it is unfortunate that so many tourists miss the opportunity to visit Hokkaido." This is an opinion because others might think it is OK to skip a trip to Hokkaido if for some reason it is more costly or inaccessible, for example. However, the sentence appears to express some level of opinion because Hokkaido is, in fact, a popular tourist destination for hiking and scenic views, especially among domestic tourists.
Answer:
Let's first consider the difference between a subject and a theme. A subject is a briefly expressed topic - in this case, nature. A theme, on the other hand, is an opinion or an angle on that particular subject. It is usually expressed as a phrase or a sentence. In this case, the central theme would be the <u>power of nature over humans and their petty interests</u>. (Other themes could be nature vs. humanity or humankind; human intrusion on nature never comes without consequences, etc.)
Explanation:
The power of nature is introduced in the very first sentence. The Carpathian forest on a winter night seems terrifying, and Ulrich's vigilance confirms it. Even though he has a rifle and is waiting for Georg to appear, we can't help but feel that he is an essentially helpless and fragile creature.
Later on, as the two enemies are standing face to face and quarreling over the land, <u>nature reasserts its power as the giant branch topples them over and disables them</u>. That's what brings them together - but not for long. Even as they reconcile, a pack of hungry wolves appears. As if the nature announces: I don't care about your greed or conflict or destructive hatred for one another - or even your newly acquired respect; <u>both of you are interlopers on this piece of land which was never yours to begin with</u>.

Answer:
Truman stated that his decision to drop the bomb was purely military. A Normandy-type amphibious 8 landing would have cost an estimated million casualties. Truman believed that the bombs saved Japanese lives as well. Prolonging the war was not an option for the President.
