The actions are adequately matched.
- A life of suffering will lead to a life with religious ascetics. However, it is seen as one of the extremes that should be avoided because self mortification is unprofitable and unworthy.
- A life as an Hindu Prince leads to a life given to pleasures. This is seen as the other extreme because it also leads to being unworthy and unprofitable.
- Meditating under the Bodhi Tree leads to the path of enlightment. It is what leads to "The Middle Way" between "Eternalism" (which is denied by Buddhism) and "Annihilationism" (Budhism accepts the fact of existence. Therefore things can be destroyed.)
D) there was a great diversity of skill and cultures in the labor force didn't you forget how AMerica's economy made a diversity.
I've seen this question before, asking to identify where the narrative takes place. It is <u>World War II in Europe</u>.
The references to "fighting the Germans when Poland had first been invaded" identify this narrative as happening during World War II in Europe. Other nations in Europe, notably Britain and France, had followed a policy of appeasement toward Adolph Hitler and Germany's efforts to add territory to its control. They allowed Germany to annex the Sudentland, and then did nothing when Germany took control of all of Czechoslovakia (in March, 1939). But when Germany invaded Poland in September, 1939, it was beyond clear that appeasing Hitler hadn't worked, and war was pursued. Germany's invasion of Poland was the beginning of World War II in Europe.
