Answer:

After reading this excerpt, I would say that <em>the speaker is amazed by America</em> and that <em>he and his father don't feel comfortable with that feeling because they know deep down inside that they don't belong there.</em>

Explanation:

I think it is pretty clear how amazed the speaker is by America when he says: "<em>We stood awhile, </em><em>marveling at America</em>", but somthing inside is still making him feel sad inside, and that shows when he says: "<em>both of us trying hard to feel luckier  than we felt</em>". This sad feeling the speaker and his father had I think it is because they loved that place, but still felt they were visitors there, they didn't feel America as their home. This is very clear when the speaker says: "<em>when we backed away, we saw our reflections  / superimposed, big-eyed, dressed too formally  / with all due respect </em><em>as visitors to this country.</em>"

PLEASE HELP MEEE As a parable, or a simple story used to illustrate a lesson, what knowledge or moral does the poem, "The Blind
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The moral of the story is that people should give room for other people’s ideas, opinions and experiences. People’s experiences should not be disregarded because they are different from ours or different from the norm. This is because people are different with different backgrounds and experiences and will always see things differently.

Explanation:

The story for parable of “The Blind Men and the Elephant” is a parable that originated in Indian. It is the story of a particular group of blind men who had never seen an elephant before.

They try to learn about it for the very first time by touching an elephant. Each man begins by touching different parts of the body of the elephant. Because they each touched different parts of the elephant, they describe it in different ways. This led to disagreements because each of them described the elephants based on their own experience and felt the other was being dishonest.
