In the first excerpt it is this sentence:"It was a difficult moment, but I did what seemed right, which was to say, "Of course not," and then to take her onto my lap and hold her for a while."
Here we see that the author is really not comfortable with the question his daughter asked him and thus he lies to her. You can see the pain he feels in just one sentence and the horrors that are hidden behind. One day he may tell her but not then.
"They would discuss their experiences right up to the time of battle and then suddenly they wouldn't talk anymore."
This sentence in the second excerpt show the unwillingness of the usually boastful people to talk about the war in detail. The author notices that they don't remember and it could potentially be that they wanted not to remember. Unconsciously they blocked the horrible things they had done and seen.
Answer:
“The Good Morrow” is an aubade—a morning love poem—written by the English poet John Donne, likely in the 1590s. In it, the speaker describes love as a profound experience that's almost like a religious epiphany. Indeed, the poem claims that erotic love can produce the same effects that religion can. Through love, the speaker’s soul awakens; because of love, the speaker abandons the outside world; in love, the speaker finds immortality. This is a potentially subversive argument, for two reasons. First, because the poem suggests that all love—even love outside of marriage—might have this transformative, enlightening effect. Second, because of the idea that romantic love can mirror the joys and revelations of religious devotion.

Answer:a Debacle is a big, sudden, failure
Explanation:
”my final exam was a Debacle”
Dear editor.
I am writing this letter to alert you to the serious problems we are facing on the main highways of our city, where traffic is completely neglected and the number of accidents has grown at an alarming rate.
Our highways have holes in the roads, lack of signage, traffic lights with malfunction and lack of traffic guards. All of this has left the traffic in the city a real chaos and has caused a great risk to the lives of drivers and pedestrians.
We went to the city hall to ask for a solution to this problem, but we didn't get an answer. For this reason, I come, humbly, to ask you to address this problem in your newspaper so that the attention of the authorities is brought to your attention.
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Regards,
Neemy Shap
