Answer:
The correct answer is <u>D</u>: Mikhail Gorbachev.
Explanation:
Mikhail Gorbachev was the last president of the Soviet Union from 1985 to 1991 and General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. His attempts toward reforms brought the end of the Cold War, but it also caused the end of the supreme political power of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the collapse of the Soviet Union.
In 1988, Gorbachev announced that the Soviet Union would abandon Brezhnev's doctrine and allow the citizens of the Eastern Bloc to choose their internal politics.
This proved to be the most radical step of Gorbachev's reform regarding foreign politics, which was called Sinatra's Doctrine. This reform led to a series of revolutions in Eastern Europe during 1989 when communism was overthrown.
The collapse of communism influenced the ending of the Cold War and Gorbachev was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize on October 15, 1990.
Answer:
In the excerpt Walt Whitman suggests that <u><em>human beings continue to exist after death through the people they know</em></u> because <em><u>the remains of the dead are absorbed into the soil and continue to nourish life</u></em>.
Explanation:
Walt Whitman's poem "Song of Myself" is a celebration of the self and how an individual becomes one with nature. The poet delves into the idea of discovering one's self, identification of one's self with that of others, and the relationship with the universe and nature.
In the given lines of poetry taken from the 6th part of the poem, the poet talks of what happens to life after one dies. He questions<em> "What has become of the young and old men? / And what has become of the women and children?"</em> And he responds, "<em>All goes onward and outward, nothing collapses, / And to die is different from what anyone supposed, and luckier."</em>
This shows that Whitman believes human beings do not die or vanish completely. Rather, they continue to exist after death through the people they know, and that the remains of the dead are absorbed into the soil and continue to nourish life.
