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.

Then yield thee, coward, And live to be the show and gaze o' th' time!
charle [14.2K]
This is a taunt. Here MacDuff is telling MacBeth to yield and show himself to be a coward as well as a monster. People will come to see you, and you will be painted on a pole and underneath will be written "Here may you see the tyrant."

Act 5 Scene 8.
This is one of those multiple guess things that the correct answer is in the mind of  the asker. You could argue all of them to be true. He does blame Lady MacBeth who went mad bearing that blame.

He (hypocritically) befriends Duncan even offering him protection and hospitality, only to betray both and this betrayal is certainly one of  the worst possible crimes.

He murders the king. 

And he does refuse to listen to the witches which are practically his only true friends throughout the play. They say what he needs to hear.

I see why this question is so hard. There is no answer that is easily eliminated.  

His most villainous act is the betrayal of his lord and master, a king that ruled over him. I see subtle implications in B which likely is not what your teacher would choose.

C is probably what you are looking for, although I'm not sure anyone in the play has full knowledge of what he has done. Most would believe the concocted version that the guards were responsible.

Be prepared to get this marked wrong, but I would argue it politely and firmly, because all the choices are possible.

Need help with the four questions
zubka84 [21]
The second one:The branches of the acacia tree were full of hollow splinters, which provided the shelter for ants living on the acacia tree. The small ants in the host are the workers of the crematogaster. The mimosa workers can nest in the hollow thorns, and enjoy the sweet juice secreted by the acacia leaves. To defend their interests, such small ants cannot tolerate other animals touching the trees on which they live. If there are outsiders, whether the other person is a big or puny child, they will recklessly launch an attack. If they find the Dirty beetles burrowing into the acacia trees, they can be exterminated by devouring the larvae of longhorn beetle beetles; And when the elephant or giraffe eats the leaves, the small ants will suddenly sting them, causing its burning pain.
