Answer:

In paragraph 8 of the write-up "Quilt of a Country", the author - Anna Quindlen  having analysed the sociological makeup of America, its unity regardless of the foundational dissimilarities refers to the act of complaining about other people who are different as pride.

He makes this assertion then goes on to justify why by relating the fact that the deaths toll of 9-11 does not comprise of one category of people.

It can also be inferred that he alludes to the fact that if terrible times such as wars and terrorism can equalise us and bind us together, how much more unified should we be in the time of peace?

Cheers

Describe the woman who causes Enkidu's transformation what might her role indicate about early Mesopotamian cultures beliefs abo
viva [34]

The woman who promotes the transformation in Enkidu is called Samate. She is a prostitute, beautiful and extremely sensual. She seduces Enkidu and makes him fulfill all his desires, thus bringing him closer to the characteristics that a civilized man must possess.

This says a lot about the vision of women and the process of civilization that the first cultures of Mesopotania had. This shows that the woman was seen as a being full of whims and manipulations that had the ability to shape the man and make him reach levels that he could not achieve alone. It also reveals that one of the characteristics of civilization was that men had the possession of a woman and established a relationship with her that would spur her wild side, but that would lead her to rationality.
