Answer:
presents facts and evidence to convince readers to rescue the Sequoia
Explanation:
In both books, "Silent springs" by Rachel Carson and “Save the Redwoods” by John Muir, environmental advocacy is the main subject of discussion.
While the book by Rachel Carson is a fictional story, “Save the Redwoods” by John Muir is a brief essay in which the author argued that Americans should save the scattering of sequoia groves outside the already-established Sequoia National Park, as well as the forests of redwoods along the coast.
John Muir as an environmental activist advocated for the preservation of wonders of nature around America and was quite instrumental in the creation of Yosemite National Park in 1890.
Answer:
The mood is one of tension and fear.
Explanation:
Hello. You did not enter the text to which your question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching, I managed to find a question like yours and I noticed that you forgot to say that the question refers to the book "Refugee" written by Alan Gratz.
"Refugee" tells the story of three children who try to leave their countries and become refugees with their families. The first child is a Jewish boy who is fleeing German Nazism, the second child is a Cuban girl who is fleeing the oppressive government of Fidel Castro in Cuba and the third child is a boy who is fleeing Syria's instability and violence.
The girl who is fleeing Cuba is called Isabel and she is trying to escape Cuba with her family using a boat, to get to New York. The mood at that moment in history is one of tension and fear, because during the flight two Cuban soldiers deserte and get into Isabel's boat. The other soldiers start firing to prevent escape and the boat is hit by one of the shots and begins to sink. At that moment, the author shows all the fear and despair of Isabel's family. They are afraid of being hit by the gunshots, of failing to reach their destination, of returning to Cuba and being arrested and of drowning.
The literary mood is the atmosphere and sensation that the author wants the reader to feel at the moment of reading, allowing the reader to have an emotional experience similar to the characters.

Peter Van Daan is one of the character from the novel ‘The Diary of a Young Girl’ by Anne Frank which depicts the story of the young girl Anne Frank and her family who went into hiding for two years. The story illustrates the horrors of war.
Peter is the son of Van Daan and he is shown as a loner who isn’t quite optimistic and who doesn’t trust of have faith in anything. Anne tries to bring the other side of him, but she realizes that Peter has an inferiority complex.
He mostly acts to benefit himself and he don’t really bother to impress anyone. Peter isn’t really a bold or courageous person, neither in words nor in actions.
