Answer:

Marsh in the story symbolizes livelihood to Tom where he learns to enjoy his life and not to be confined to his house.

Explanation:

"The Deep" by Anthony Doerr is a new short story that has won the prestigious Sunday Times EFG Private Bank Short Story Award on 9, April 2011. The story is set during the times of the Great Depression. It is a story of a young Tom, who at the age of 4, is detected by a terminal sickness "Atrial Septal Defect" or "a hole in the heart." He is prevented from going anywhere outside by his mother. But one day he becomes friend with a young girl named Ruby, who studies with him. She takes him to the marsh where Tom enjoys the adventures with Ruby. He often sneaks out of the home to spend time with her. Marsh in the story symbolizes livelihood to Tom where he learns to enjoy his life and not to be confined to his house.

The 'bright' side of the symbol of the marshy pool which denies the stranger access, bears the meaning of a united family, a well-defended country or a secure village, the still water being the image of a peacefulness which nothing can disturb.

Answer:

Mr. Bedford, you should definitely go to the moon. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity and you could not just turn it down. I know that there are risks of failure that could end badly, but it is worth it. You have worked so hard with Mr. Cavor that you can't just give this up. Yes your business had a downfall but that shoukd not stop you. I know that you might be a little scared or unsure if this will work and I can see that. What is you say no, but it works. What if it works and everything goes right, but you missed the opportunity to go to space, to see that stars and the moon, to see our planet in a way no one has ever seen it before. Then would you be sad and angry that you said no. Then would you have wanted to go and wished you said yes. Keep up the good work and you will make it, you will succeed and it will all be worth it.
