D. The word "ghosts" is used to represent Robert's war memories.

Explanation:

The passage begins as hopeful but melancholic but soon becomes a testament that R<u>obert has returned from Vietnam with a case of PTSD. 'Ghost' is a poignant metaphor for his condition</u> as it describes what past memories feel like to a person suffering from it.

The memories linger like a supernatural power, ever present, ever lingering but ever so out of touch and only seen by those effected by it. It is a great metaphor to show Robert's condition.

WHAT TO THE SLAVE IS THE FOURTH OF JULY?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Frederick Douglass, 1818-1895, was an African American who sought throughout his life to bring social reform to the U.S and to stop slavery and its consequences not just on the African American people, but on the entire nation at large. Having been a slave himself, he escaped bondage and gained his freedom after escaping to England and Ireland thanks to the education he attained from his former owner. He also became an orator and dedicated his life to the abolition movement. In this particular speech, given on the ocassion of a Fourth of July celebration, Douglass does not so much expound on the greatness that means celebrating this national holiday of independence but rather on the fact that not all Americans, including African Americans, can enjoy it because some are still tied through slavery. He mentions the fact that he was basically coarced to speak on this day as if he were also a part of it, happy for it, but in truth he decides to show his listeners that he is first, and foremost, black and he sides with slaves completely. Because of his choice in this matter, of making people aware of who and what he is and was, he says clearly, from the 3rd paragraph, lines 1 through 16, that celebrating the 4th of July with them, when so many of his brethren suffer bondage would be treason. This is why, the correct answer is C.

Why do you think laws and rights<br> should be written with a formal<br> tone?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The formal tone first shows that these must be taken in a serious note, you wouldn't want a law to be written like "Guns are bad cuz they harm people, so no more guns."

Also when writing in formal tone you are more likely to elaborate and close the gap of free interruption.
