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 "a man must not marry" and that "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." 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.

Put this in your own words! The textbook teaches that when a private company needs finding to expand or to take advantage

____ [38]

Answer:

The textbook explains that when a private business needs finding to arise or to take advantage of additional possibilities, they may prefer to receive financing by going public with their company (Ferrell, Hirt & Ferrell, 2014). This can be achieved through a method known as IPO or initial public offering. This simply means that you become a publicly faded company by marketing stock that can be traded in the public market Ferrel Hur & Ferrell, 2014).

For instance, one of a company that has recently gone public through an IPO is Shake Shack.

Shake Shack went public, though IPO in 2015 (Shake Shack Inc, 2015) Shake Shack portrays themselves as a modern-day roadside burger platform and contributes items such as burgers, and hot dogs.

Explanation:

I don't know if you needed it to be rewritten or something else, but I just put this through Grammarly, double clicked on multiple words that I thought would be best the words changed and chose a different and new word that is/ was similar to the original. I hope this helps.

1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?

The man thought that the boy ran away with the money.

2. What took the boy too long to return?

The boy lost the money, so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor to have the cup of tea.

3. What do you think the man felt after knowing it? Why?

I think that he felt bad about himself because he judged the boy by his appearance.

4. Does his experience reflect bias or prejudice? Why?

His experience reflects prejudice because he judged the boy by his attire. He had the prejudice that poor or pathetically dressed boys are thefts.

5. How can we avoid this kind of situation?

We can avoid this kind of situation by learning through different experiences and texts, like this story. Also, we should reflect on our actions and thoughts to identify prejudices and work on them.

Explanation:

1.We can see that the man thought that the boy ran away with the money in the fourth paragraph when he says, "Now I was sure that the child ran away the money..."

2. The answer to question number two is in the last paragraph when the boy explains what happened "He told me, he lost the 5 rupees coin and so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor, to bring me a cup of tea."

3. It is not in the story, but we can infer that he felt bad since he judged someone wrong and unfairly since the boy was not a thief. He only was pathetically dressed.

4. We can see that his experience reflects prejudice since he has a concept in his mind about people dressed in dirty and torn clothes. He relates the appearance of someone with traits, so there's prejudice because he is judging the boy without knowing him.

5. There are many ways to avoid these situations. One of them is by educating ourselves and reflecting on our thought and actions. We can do this in different ways. For example, by reading, talking with others about their experiences and point of view, or thinking about our actions.
