Thomas Jefferson : Indian Addresses To the Brothers of the Choctaw Nation December 17, 1803 BROTHERS OF THE CHOCTAW NATION: We h

ave long heard of your nation as a peaceful and friendly people; but this is the first visit we have had from its great men. I welcome you here; am glad to take you by the hand, and to promise you that we are their friends. Born in the same land, we ought to live as brothers, doing to each other all the good we can, and not listening to wicked men, who may try to make us enemies. By living in peace, we can help one another; by starting war, we can kill many on both sides; but those who survive will not be the happier for that. Then, brothers, let it forever be peace and good neighborhood between us. Our seventeen States make up a great and growing nation. Their children are as the leaves of the trees, which the winds are spreading over the forest. But we are just also. We take from no nation what belongs to it. We will give you a copy of the law, made by our great Council, for punishing our people, who try to take your lands, or injure you otherwise. Carry it with you to your homes. Preserve it. It is the shield which we spread over you, to protect your land, your property and persons.

A.) countrymen
B.) neighborhood
C.) council

What is the order events The Night Face Up?​
MrRa [10]

Answer:

A juxtaposition of reality and dream sequences begin when the protagonist is hospitalized after a motorcycle accident. Asleep after surgery, he dreams that he is in flight from the Aztecs in a ritual war and must stay on a trail known only to the Motecas. He wakes, thirsty and feverish, to find his arm in a plaster cast. He eats and sleeps once more, dreaming this time that he is off the trail. He grasps his amulet and prays, but is captured. Awake again in the hospital, he thinks of the strange, almost infinite, loss of consciousness he had experienced after his accident. Dozing, he awakens this time pinned to the ground by ropes. His amulet is gone. He knows he will be sacrificed and the priests carry him away. He awakens one last time, but this reality quickly merges with the dream. The priest is coming toward him with the stone knife, and he realizes that he is not going to awaken; that he is awake, and that it is the other consciousness which was a dream.

Which two parts of this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The £1,000,000 Bank-Note" use hyperbole? "I may use your name! Your name--thi
navik [9.2K]

A hyperbole is either a word or a sentence in a text that shows an overstatement (an exaggeration), it does not have to be literal; it is just a way to express your ideas in order to generate a contrast or to get the reader's attention.

In the excerpt the hyperboles (exaggerations) are:

  • <u><em>Your name--think of it! Man,</em></u><u><em> they'll flock in droves</em></u><u><em>, these rich Londoners; they'll fight for that stock! </em></u>

When the writer says <em>"they'll flock in droves", </em>he refers to a very big amount of people together.

  • <em><u>In less than twenty-four hours London was </u></em><em><u>abuzz</u></em><em><u>!</u></em>

When the writer uses the word <em>"abuzz", </em>it does not mean the city was on fire; it means the city was lively busy.
