 In Ernest Hemingway’s “In Another Country,” the major most likely stays away from the hospital for three days to mourn the death of his wife.

The major was very scornful towards doctors due to the fact that his injuries were not cured by them and he is skeptical about the fact that machines will succeed in curing the three soldiers who Nick befriended.

The short story “In Another Country,” is about an ambulance corps member in Milan during World War I.

Answer:

To mourn the death of his wife.

Explanation:

The short story of "In Another Country" by Ernest Hemingway tells the story of a wounded American soldier recovering in an Italian hospital. Nick was the narrator and main protagonist of the story who tells us about the other soldiers.

Among the other wounded soldiers was an old man, a major who had been regularly treated and also seen and interacted with by Nick. But one day, he and the major talked about the idea of marriage which seemed to anger the major. H snapped at Nick and told him that "<em>a man must not marry</em>" and that "<em>If he is to lose everything, he  should not place himself in a position to lose that. He should not place himself in a  position to lose. He should find things he cannot lose.</em>" But then, he later apologized that he was distraught and acted that way because his wife had died. For the next three days, he failed to turn up for the treatment. The reason why he likely stayed away from the hospital was to mourn the death of his wife.

The Giver Chapters 6-9
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

1) Jonas instantly becomes different. He is someone who is respected but not one of them. He is more or less an outcast.

2)Asher is satisfied with the status quo. His small quirks are accepted and even celebrated by the Elders. He fits the narrow definition of "normality" in the community. Jonas questions the community and the rigid control wielded by the Elders. He evolves quickly past the status quo and has certain capabilities that no other child has.

3)Gabriel was too weak to be named and given to a family. Jonas' father fought to get Gabriel in the next batch of children instead of being released.

4)This is somewhat ironic considering the "sameness" of the community as a whole. The Elder is merely relating minor differences in personality of the kids. The Elders actually demand conformity for these kids and only give the illusion of diversity through the ceremony.

5)Jonas reviews the rules for his assignment, and he is unnerved about rule number six, which forbids him from taking any medication related to his training. Jonas remembers that the Chief Elder had mentioned that he would experience an extreme amount of pain.
