He tells him Juliet is already married
He wishes his father would just listen to him about what happened to him in Vietnam and all the horrors he went through and give him credit for the 7 medals he had received for his efforts in the war. However, his father was in a rather depressed state and did not see medals as a measure of a man's ability or heroism. All his son wanted to do was get some of the pressures of the war off his chest and be admired some by his dad but it was useless and it just had to keep it inside. The guilt and the good that he felt was a burden he carried. He also wished his father would recognize what a good soldier he himself had been instead of withdrawing to himself after the war. As a result he sees and feels no use for his life after the war
The correct answer is:
I. Details in the story
II. Historical context.
Explanation:
An author's purpose is the main reason why an author decided to write, it is the main objective of the author and it can be to inform, entertain, persuade or to explain. The purpose of an author can be found by details in the story such as information and facts or in a historical context that helps understand, explain and inform the reader about a specific topic.
Answer:
The last answer is juvenile. Writing is an extension of speaking. The only difference is in the purpose, and for the intended audience. Areas of change are format (an essay vs. research paper) form (formal vs. coloquial). structure (sermon vs. rap). Both forms of communication are in no way different.
