PLZZZZ NEED HELP ASAP WILLI GIVE BRAINLIEST!!! Writers organize their writings to make an impact on their readers. In Muir's wri

ting about the Calypso Borealis, he places opposing views of his journey close together. Read the following paragraphs. In two to four sentences, explain the opposite views of the two paragraphs and discuss the impact of placing these opposite views close together. The rarest and most beautiful of the flowering plants I discovered on this first grand excursion was Calypso borealis (the Hider of the North). I had been fording streams more and more difficult to cross and wading bogs and swamps that seemed more and more extensive and more difficult to force one's way through. Entering one of these great tamarac and arbor-vitae swamps one morning, holding a general though very crooked course by compass, struggling through tangled drooping branches and over and under broad heaps of fallen trees, I began to fear that I would not be able to reach dry ground before dark, and therefore would have to pass the night in the swamp and began, faint and hungry, to plan a nest of branches on one of the largest trees or windfalls like a monkey's nest, or eagle's, or Indian's in the flooded forests of the Orinoco described by Humboldt. But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy.

Answer:

I believe that he is explaining the ups and downs of his journey. He spoke of how it was to find blankets, but then spoke how he had no difficulty in find bread in other places such as the farmer homes. At times he suffered greatly, and other times he did not. I hope this helps.

1.) Discuss the conflict Dana and Kevin face with their families on pages 108-112. What is paradoxical about
tangare [24]

When Dana returns to the past and gets closer to Weylin's house, she feels at home.

Explanation:

  • Kevin is a progressive man. In the 1970s, when casual racism was still common in the United States, he saw racial equality as mandatory and was shocked and surprised by the prejudiced beliefs of other people. He married a black woman over the objections.
  • Because he is a white man, he is not exposed to the kind of horrors that Dana, a black woman, must confront. And because he can be self-involved and insensitive, Kevin doesn’t make it his business to understand these horrors.
  • Kevin’s experiences in the South suggest that only the most extraordinary members of any ruling class can fully empathize with oppressed members of society.
