Answer:
18. A. Importance of individualism
19. D. He is simply reporting what he sees and wants the reader to draw his/her conclusions.
Explanation:
The above selected options are correct.
One of the main themes of Romanticism is individualism. Individualism is known to be that the interests of an individual are paramount. It says that one's rights, values and duties originates in the individual.
We see the importance of individualism play out as the speaker reveals the sufferings that people are passing through. He kept saying "I See..." which makes it individualistic. He also allows the reader to trust in their own instinct and see what he also sees. He wasn't imposing anything on anyone. He reports what he sees and wants the reader to draw conclusion by him/herself.
Whitman was known to be a great believer of individualism. It was a movement that he was part of.
Excerpt: The start of school on the reservation was always hectic. I couldn't hear myself think above the talking and laughing, and it didn't seem like any of us were ready to trade our summers for book reports and math worksheets. What started as a chorus of whispers from desk to desk cranked up to almost a roar, with no teacher in sight. When the door opened, all conversation stopped. A tall, bearded man strode into the room and slapped a lesson planner onto his desk. The entire class sucked in their breath, and I could hardly believe my eyes. It was my uncle Mahkah.
Answer: Some dialogue that helps to develop the character of Uncle Mahkah.

He is describing an event from the author's life which is including the start of school and his feelings about that. At the end of the excerpt, there is Uncle Mahkah that is mentioned but since we don't know anything about him <u>it would be good for writer to develop his character with dialogue, description of his life or some interesting details so it can be also more understandable for the readers. </u>
