If your referring to the flashback of his mother Henry is a little disappointed, he expected a more heroic goodbye. I think she is used in the flashback<span /><span> to juxtapose the very unheroic reality that, Henry now understands is the army, he now realizes the horror of war.</span>
I know a lot of people are saying personification-----that is wrong, there is no district assigning of a human characteristic
See Analysis Emily Dickenson's there is no Frigate..Page 5 begining of second paragraph
A. Paradox
D. Examine her own perception and then check in with Ivan about his behavior
The question asks about what Tamara should to do better interpret the situation and communicate appropriately. In order for her to better interpret the situation she needs to examine her own perception. Why does she feel that Ivan is unusually quiet? Does she truly think that it is directed towards her? Then she should check in with him. Telling him that he's being inconsiderate as option A suggests is not helpful. Option B also does not solve the problem either. And if Ivan is going through something, offering him help or support may be what he needs. Option C is also not correct because Tamara should not be providing therapy and she doesn't even know what is going on.
