The correct answer is C. the possibility of Adams’s failure and having a lot of debt to repay. Indeed, at this point in time Henry Adams is just going with the flow of his incredible story, knowing that there are things in motion above and beyond his control and is somewhat resigned to fail. When he meets Portia Langham at the US Ambassador’s party, they hit it off together immediately and since she is also a woman of the same social station as his, who on top of that is capable of finding humor in a very Kafkaesque situation, he realizes they are a perfect match.

What does the tree symbolize in the Oklahoma bombing memorial address
hammer [34]

It is more than 90 years old. An American Elm Tree in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City, it survived the bomb’s blast and witnessed one of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil. Today, we call it the Survivor Tree.

Before the bombing, the tree was important because it provided the only shade in the downtown parking lot. People would arrive early to work just to be able to park under the shade of the tree’s branches.

On April 19, 1995, the tree was almost chopped down to recover pieces of evidences that hung from its branches due to the force of the 4,000 pound bomb that killed 168 and injured hundreds just yards away. Evidence was retrieved from the branches and the trunk of the tree.

When hundreds of community citizens, family members of those who were killed, survivors and rescue workers came together to write the Memorial Mission Statement, one of its resolutions dictated that “one of the components of the Memorial must be the Survivor Tree located on the south half of the Journal Record Building block.”
