Mccain's essay was very exaggerating to me and managed to extend my concept of patriotism, thus leaving the concept more complete and efficient. Before reading the essay, I believed that patriotism is related exclusively to the feeling of love for the country, within that feeling it was not correct to criticize and not support certain elements, but just to love the country unconditionally. MacCain's essay showed me that criticism of the country is part of patriotism, because it is through criticism that we recognize the defects that our society has and that need to be changed. This is able to motivate us to fight for a better country. Striving for improvement represents love for the country and that represents patrotism.

Which lines from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?
A. Ringed by the tall brick walls Semíramis had built—so we are told.
B. If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe.
C. The wall their houses shared had one thin crack, which formed when they were built and then was left
D. When first light had banished night's bright star-fires from the sky and sun had left the brine-soaked meadows dry
The answer to this question is B. "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe"
Explanation:
In literature, characterization involves using details to explain the traits of characters, this includes their personality, physical traits, qualities, among others. This literary device can be seen in the excerpt "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe" because, in this, the narrator describes Thisbe, who is one main character of the story. Also, the narrator focuses on one important trait of this character, which is her greater charm that according to the narrator could only be found in Thisbe.
The correct answer is gloomy mood.
