Read this story, which is in chronological order. Last May, I decided to swim a mile without stopping. I knew I would need to be

able to do it to join the Coast Guard, so I spent every morning practicing with my father. I thought of giving up many times. "I could be sleeping right now," I would cry out as my muscles ached. One morning, I started to doubt myself, so I imagined swimming to a person in need. Before I knew it, I could hear my dad clapping. I had done it! Write a version of the same story, this time starting the story in the middle.

The author of Catch-22 was probably MOST influenced by
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

his disdain for bureaucracies

Explanation:

"Catch-22" is a novel written by Joseph Heller, an American novelist and playwright. This novel was meant to portray a disdain for bureaucracies, which was very popular in the 1960s. It shows a self-refuting idea about what is considered a common sense or valid in bureaucracy.

As stated in "A Catchy Phrase," "Yossarian" was a bombardier who was afraid to die, however, he has to follow the military regulation that they should not avoid combat missions. So, this highlights the standard operating procedures that bombardiers have to follow. It shows a <u>self-defeating idea</u>, since both ideas do not coincide with each other. He can just say "no" if he didn't want to and that would consider him as sane. Nevertheless, he needed to do his job because he was working as a bombardier, so this makes him crazy.
