Read this excerpt from "Not a Dove, But No Longer a Hawk." I wonder, when I look at the bombed out peasant hamlets, the orphans

begging and stealing on the streets of Saigon and the women and children with napalm burns lying on the hospital cots, whether the United States or any nation has the right to inflict this suffering and degradation on another people for its own ends. How do the allusions in this excerpt reinforce the meaning of the passage?

The allusions or expressions that discuss something not directly stated, relate to the horrors and consequences of war. The specific issues alluded to in this passage is the intervention of the U.S. in Vietnam during the Vietnam War to prevent the spread of communism in this part of southeast Asia. The passage questions what right did the U.S. government have in inflicting not only death and destruction, but also the very real effects that result in people begging, stealing and suffering.

Answer:

A) Fog slowly rising from the surface of the pond.

Explanation:

Henry David Thoreau wrote his transcendentalist book "Walden" as a reflection of his simple living among nature. He notes in his book how one can only know his true self when he's among nature, away from the automatic and forceful nature of living in the big cities.

From the above provided passage in the question, Thoreau is describing how the fog is slowly rising from the surface of the pond early in the morning. Thoreau is staying in a cabin in the woods, where he survives and lives among nature, away from the monotonous life of cities. He notes that the beauty of nature is fully appreciated when one makes it a necessity to be at one with nature. In the chapter titled "<em>Where I Lived And What I Lived For</em>", he recounts how he was able to notice even the littlest of things, like for instance, this rising of the fog. His use of imagery in describing the scene also makes it more attractive and appealing, instead of just simple putting it in normal simple direct words.
