please help 50 points and brainlist Read the following speech excerpt and then select the correct answer to the question below:

President George W. Bush’s speech to the troops on the USS Abraham Lincoln Our mission continues. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed. The scattered cells of the terrorist network still operate in many nations, and we know from daily intelligence that they continue to plot against free people. The proliferation of deadly weapons remains a serious danger. The enemies of freedom are not idle, and neither are we. Our government has taken unprecedented measures to defend the homeland — and we will continue to hunt down the enemy before he can strike. The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory, but we have seen the turning of the tide. No act of the terrorists will change our purpose, or weaken our resolve, or alter their fate. Their cause is lost. Free nations will press on to victory. Other nations in history have fought in foreign lands and remained to occupy and exploit. Americans, following a battle, want nothing more than to return home. And that is your direction tonight. After service in the Afghan and Iraqi theaters of war — after 100,000 miles, on the longest carrier deployment in recent history — you are homeward bound. Some of you will see new family members for the first time — 150 babies were born while their fathers were on the Lincoln. Your families are proud of you, and your nation will welcome you. How is the third paragraph different from the first two? It no longer sounds authoritative or informed about the situation. It broadens its view to consider the service people around the world. It gets more specific by talking about the service people on the USS Lincoln. It comes across as unfeeling and insensitive to the people who have suffered.

Write a letter to your friend in another town and describe your teacher​
dangina [55]

Answer:

Dear Catherine,

      Good morning from Austin, Texas! School started today and I am starting to like this very much. Part of this is due to my amazing teacher. She's nice and sweet but teaches, well, stopping to keep all students on the same track. I feel as though we can talk about anything with her as well. I was talking about something totally random during class and she seemed understanding, even connecting it back to the main topic. I am so blessed to have gotten such an amazing, dedicated teacher.

Miss you,

Amy

What reservations does nick have about gatsby's feelings for daisy
Maslowich
In F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby, Nick Carraway feels that  Daisy and Gatsby's relation will most certainly end poorly.  Nick believes that the couple's relationship is structured upon illusion, at least on the part of Gatsby.  Nick believes that Gatsby is attempting, through his relationship with Daisy, to relive the past in order to create a new future.  Furthermore, Nick feels that Daisy's affections for Gatsby is owed not to any sort of true, emotional love, but rather an attraction to his wealth.

Why is the number 3 significant with Dante Alighieri?
mariarad [96]
The number 3 is everywhere in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy<span>. For one thing, the poem itself is structured according to the rhyme scheme terza rima, which uses stanzas of three lines that employ interlocking rhymes (aba bcb cdc, etc.). Additionally, there are nine circles of Hell (three multiplied by three), Satan has three faces, and three beasts (a lion, a leopard, and a wolf) threaten Dante at the beginning of the Inferno. There are many more examples of three, but the overall important thing to understand is that the number three largely governs the structure of Dante's poem. Indeed, you can think of the number three as the scaffolding on which the rest of the poem's content is hung. This number is significant because three is a central number in the Judaeo-Christian tradition, especially in terms of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). As such, just as the whole of the Christian world is governed by a three-in-one God, Dante's poem is governed by the number three. Thus, Dante's obsession with the number three mirrors the prevalence of three in the Christian tradition. </span><span />
