Shakespeare's plays is an example of an abstract noun because it refers to an idea not to something tangible as the plays aren't something you can touch. On the other hand, a computer screen is an example of a concrete noun because it is an object you can see and touch.


Concrete nouns are nouns which refer to people, animals or objects, in general to someting specific, such as <em>table</em>, <em>bread</em>, <em>dog</em>, etc.

Abstract nouns are nouns which refer to an idea, such as <em>freedom</em>, <em>sadness</em>, etc.

Hello there!

Answer:

The words <em>"France, Alsace, France, Alsace"</em> represent the pure patriotic feeling of the Monsieur Hamel for France. Therefore, the young little student Franz relates the papers to these words with flags which may represent their freedom.

Explanation:

The short story <em>"The Last Class: The Story of a Little Alsatian"</em> was written by Alphonse Daudet, showing the meaning of patriotism and freedom. This story was set during the Franco-Prussian war, which tells the story of the German takeover of Alsace in France during WW1.

It narrates the story of an Alsatian boy named Franz, who doesn't understand his teacher's patriotism. During the class, the teacher announces that Berlin has banned French from schools, so he tries to explain the importance of the French language in the world.

Then, Monsieur Hamel asks them an assignment with these words (France, Alsace, France, Alsace) and there is where he starts to show his patriotism.
