Just think of it. Imagine today you have absolutely nothing going on. You have an entire day ahead of you but there is nothing you need to worry about. Your body is on a routine. Your mind is on a routine. It would be pretty monotonous.
We often do not realize how fast time is passing by because we are busy dealing with things. But imagine if we didn’t have to? Life would go slow.
Since there are problems, we instill gratitude in our minds. But if we had everything and absolutely no problems, gratefulness would never be something we’d consider. We usually realize the importance of things when we don’t have it with us.
Apart from that, our development would be lagging. I say this because so many amazing inventions have been made because inventors spotted a problem and thought they could fix. Similarly, as humans, we may not be motivated to do stuff ourselves.
Motivation is different for everyone, but let’s say you didn’t have to think of becoming independent, many would lose their motivation to find a decent paying job. Challenges in our life builds us up as a person and I feel like even our personal development would fall behind.
I do think that may be people wouldn’t stress if life had no problems.
In life, we are the problem solvers. Everything is a problem if you think of it that way but at the same time, nothing is a problem if you take it that way. But human nature is such that we find ways to create problems even if it does not exist. What a problematic life looks like to us could be someone else’s peaceful life.
Life without problems wouldn’t be like life at all and it definitely wouldn’t a roller coaster ride with a story that’s worth telling.
Answer:
Part A: The statement which best describes the theme of the poem is:
C. Tragedy occurs both on the grand, collective scale and on the smaller, individual scale.
Part B: The quote which best supports the answer to Part A is:
B. "It solved by itself a math problem / that multiplied the one death by millions / to equal homeland." (Lines 37 - 39)
Explanation:
I found this question online; it refers to the poem "Bag of Bones" by Dunya Mikhail.
<u>The poem's theme concerns the death of many as well as the death of one. </u>One death will bring an impact with it - in the poem, it is the mother who lost her son. When a mass grave was dug up, she was able to find his remains, which brought back the memories of when he was alive as well as the feeling of loss and injustice - his death was the result of a dictatorship.
However, many more mothers are still there, at the grave, looking for their children. That one mother's tragedy is the same tragedy of many others. <u>What the dictator has done is ruin several individual lives which, when put together, results in a collective tragedy for millions.</u>
I believe they would consider the mood, tone, and <span>connotation</span>.
Nope not at all, not at all......
