Why is quindlen reluctant to define anything remotely resembling a national character

English

Answer: She was reluctant to define anything remotely resembling a national character because " it was a mongrel nation." There were so many different ethnic groups that had merged into one. This made it difficult and sometimes pointless to make just one group "entirely American."

In the text, Quindlen refuses to define anything remotely resembling a national character in America. This is because she believes America cannot be defined in these terms. America is a country that was born out of a combination of people from many different nations and cultures. It is a "mongrel" of a nation. And every person is an equal part of this. Therefore, there is no unified, standard definition of what it means to be American.

In the story “Ambush,” what effect does the frame story with O’Brien’s daughter have on the overall structure and meaning of the
Alex
The frame story depicts the author’s daughter, Kathleen, asking whether her father had ever killed someone in war. The fact that the author struggles to answer this question, and even lies to his daughter, shows that this issue still weighs heavily on him. Thus, this frame story adds depth and weight to the central story about the battle in My Khe and the killing of a young Vietnamese soldier. The frame story illustrates that incidents from the war have resonated throughout the author’s life
