I think its number 1.

In these two excerpts the common idea resides in the fact that these men, who have experienced war and its aftereffects, are unable to verbalize the fact that they had to kill another human being. This, more than anything else about war, traumatizes the characters in both excerpts. This can be seen when in <em>Ambush</em>, the speaker reacts to his daughter´s comment on killing someone and he, overcome by the shame of having to face again the memories of something that happened during the war, lies to his child and reacts to her comment by embracing her instead of talking anymore. In the second excerpt of <em>Symptoms, </em>the soldiers are described as men who can talk willingly about all aspects of war except when they had to face the traumatizing event of killing people. Other than that, they would verbalize their thoughts openly; but not the thoughts of having killed, or witnessed the killing, of other people. This is why the correct answer is 1.

In the book the outsiders which member of the gang dies due to the fire?
Semmy [17]

The answer would be option B "Johnny." Johnny died in the hospital because of the fire. It was from the burning down church and Pony, and Johnny went in their to save many little kids. It's not option A because Two-bit doesn't die at all, it's not option C because Ponyboy doesn't die either, it's also not option D because Dallas died in a gun fight with the police.

Hope this helps!

aleksklad [387]
<span>This is a contrapasso moral order. Coming from Dante's "Inferno," it is a state in which everyone who commits sins will suffer a similar punishment to themselves in hell. It was considered a type of revenge from the divine for those who had committed bad acts in their lifetimes.</span>

What is an example of sacrifice in act 5 of merchant of venice by shakespeare
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

As always, Shakespeare makes use of a good deal of blank verse, which is to say unrhymed iambic pentameter. The verses in the caskets and the comments of Morocco and Aragon thereon are in trochaic tetrameter, without the weak beat of the last trochee, as Dum-da Dum-da Dum-da Dum. The rhythm of "Tell me where is fancy bred" is similar: it may be scanned as iambic tetrameter as well as trochaic.

Hopefully thats what ur looking for, hope this helps!!!
