Read the following excerpt from the introduction to “A Quilt of a Country.” Why does Quindlen offer this contradiction about the

“ideal” of America and its “reality”? How does she develop her central idea from this point?
America is an improbable idea. A mongrel nation built of ever-changing disparate parts, it is held together by a notion, the notion that all men are created equal, though everyone knows that most men consider themselves better than someone. . . . Out of many, one. That is the ideal. . . .The reality is often quite different, a great national striving consisting frequently of failure. Many of the oft-told stories of the most pluralistic nation on earth are stories not of tolerance, but of bigotry.

The question below refers to the selection “from Beowulf.”
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The three reasons why Grendel led a painful life are:

  1. Lived in swamplands.
  2. Celebration noises bothered him.
  3. Poor relationship with God.

Explanation:

'Beowulf' is an Old English epic poem; centered on the titular character, Beowulf. He is a warrior and heroic character in the epic.

Grendel is one of the monsters and antagonists that Beowulf crosses paths with. Grendel has led a painful life in epic. Grendel is a cursed descendant of Cain. This curse has led him to live a painful life in swamplands. He was easily bothered by the noises of celebrations. Another reason for his painful life is his poor relationship with God. Because he is cursed, he did not have a relationship with God, which furthered his pain.
