Which two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country" show that medals and awards in war don’t always

bring soldiers glory and acceptance?
The boys at first were very polite about my medals and asked me what I had done to get them. I showed them the papers, which were written in very beautiful language and full of fratellanza and abnegazione , but which really said, with the adjectives removed, that I had been given the medals because I was an American. After that their manner changed a little toward me, although I was their friend against outsiders. I was a friend, but I was never really one of them after they had read the citations, because it had been different with them and they had done very different things to get their medals. I had been wounded, it was true; but we all knew that being wounded, after all, was really an accident.

The answers are

After that their manner changed a little toward me, although I was their friend against outsiders.

I was a friend, but I was never really one of them after they had read the citations, because it had been different with them and they had done very different things to get their medals.


These two are sentences because they are separated by peridods, commas only denote a smaller break in a long sentence. In these two sentences the author says that after learning how he got his medals the others were less enthused about them and started treating the narrator differently.

Which sentence describes the etymology of a word?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

A. In pedometer, ped comes from the Latin pedis, which means "foot."

Explanation:

Etymology is the study of the history of words. Basically, you want to find out the origins of the word. Therefore, A is the correct choice as it describes how the word "pedometer" came to be, originating from the Latin word meaning foot. Etymology is not the synonyms, definition, or pronunciation of a word and thus you can rule out B, C, and D.

Overall, either by ruling out choices or by the definition of etymology, A is the correct answer.

Dolley Madison wrote a letter to her sister describing:
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

A) her escape from the White House during the war of 1812.

Explanation:

I summarized her letter and put the essential lines below. She is leaving the White House but not leaving the valuable portrait.

1. The good Mr. Carroll has arrived to hurry my departure, but I refuse to leave until the huge painting of General Washington is secured, and it must be unscrewed from the wall.

2. Because this procedure was deemed too time-consuming for these critical periods, I have directed that the frame be broken and the canvas be removed.

3. It has been completed! and the priceless portrait was entrusted to the care of two distinguished gentlemen from New York for safekeeping.

4. And now, my sister, I must leave this house, lest the retreating army captures me and imprison me thereby filling up the path I have been ordered to follow.

5. I have no idea when I will write to you again, or where I will be the next day!
