Answer:
The man does not listen to the old-timer's advice.
Explanation:
This question is about "To Build a Fire". In this story, a man wants to take a trip on foot in the middle of a very aggressive and dangerous snowfall. An "old-timer" meets this man and advises him not to travel in these climatic conditions, as this can put his life at risk, but the man decides to ignore the councils and continue his journey as if nothing has happened.
Patrick Henry states that Great Britain has no other enemy but the colonists - he says that its entire army is aimed towards the colonists and keeping them safe and part of its kingdom. He says that the colonists have tried for a long time to talk to the British government and make their lives easier, but their pleas fell on deaf ears. This is why he says the following:
<span><em>If we wish to be free if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained, we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of Hosts is all that is left us!
</em></span><em />He ends his speech by stating his famous sentence - Give me liberty or give me death!
I think the answer is B. I hope it helps! :)
Answer:
This is the part when he is on horseback, about to warn the town that the British are coming. In the first line, he starts heading toward the village streets with "the fate of a nation" counted on him to do so. This because he is about to warn everyone so that they can be prepared to fight. This is shown through the lines "the spark struck out by that steed", meaning that the villagers are counting on his warning to change history by sparking the Revolution.
