Answer:

“In media res”

Explanation:

“In media res” is a narrative technique in which an author begins telling a story not from the beginning of it but from the middle of it or from a crucial event. In the case of Abraham Lincoln's story, that important event would be his famous speech "The Gettysburg Address." This technique carries the story from that point on, and then gradually presents earlier events through dialogue, flashbacks or descriptions.

This would be "in media res" meaning "in the middle of things." It begins, quite frankly, in the middle of things and carries on from there.

Select the correct answer. Which of these themes are typically found in colonial literature? I. God II. Religious persecution II
gregori [183]

Most American Literature on Colonialism contains text and ideas the refer to the interactions between the colonials with the Indians who later became part of America.

It is interesting to note that American writing commenced with the advent of English colonization and exploration of the New World.

Examples of colonial literature are those authored by the following:

  • Captain John Smith
  • John Winthrop
  • Bradford Williams

Some of the early colonial works of literature that were published include but are not limited to:

  • Bay Psalm Book (1640) by Roger Williams and Thomas H. They seemed interested in the possibility of creating religious colonial states.
  • Anne Bradstreet also wrote poems that reflected religiousity. Some of them are <em>The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America (1650).</em>
  • Edward Taylor was also credited for writing spiritual materials that were not published until about 200  years after he passed.

It is worthy of note that Puritans, many of whom have been named above ( a group of protestants who were well educated middle-class members of the American scociety) had a stronger influence on colonial Literature.

This group was persecuted out of England for revolting against the practices of the Roman Catholic Church. To put a distance between themselves and the persecution of the Church, they migrated to America.

Their works dominated colonial literature many of which were written in the 1600s. Their experiences with persecution were of course reflected in their writings.

It is clear from the above that the correct answer is <u>E) I, II, </u><u>and</u><u> IV.</u>

According to Nissani what can be some possible ways to save the forest of third world countries​
Ierofanga [76]

Answer and Explanation:

Nissani first addresses the importance of saving forests in third world countries, as a way not only to promote environmental protection and renewal of environmental resources, but also as a way to protect communities dependent on these forests.

After addressing the problem of forest destruction, it also addresses what we can do to promote the protection of these environments and how we can charge government officials for these practices to be carried out.

Nissani says that firstly, we have to control the world population, doing family planning and promoting sex education, which can reduce overpopulation and the need for environmental resources. It also points to the need to create better economic and environmental policies in these countries, the need to optimize the use of wood and waste recycling, the need for financial incentives for companies and people who explore nature in a sustainable way. In addition, she says it is necessary to promote reforestation.

Use the drop-down menus to indicate whether each sentence is in the subjunctive mood. I would go for a walk, if it were not rain
Vika [28.1K]
Subjunctive mood is used to express wishes and possibilities, whereas on the other hand, indicative mood is used for facts. So let's go through all of these sentences:
1. I would go for a walk if it weren't raining - this is subjunctive. The form <em>weren't </em>used as a possibility is indicative of subjunctive mood. This person <em>wishes </em>he could go for a walk, but cannot because it is raining

2. I wish you continued at your job - this is also subjunctive. The form <em>continued is </em>is indicative of subjunctive mood. This person <em>wishes </em>something happened, but it didn't.

3. Brett wants Molly and Trent to study with him. - this is indicative. It is a fact that this person wants, so this is not subjunctive.

4. Coach recommends that we run two laps around the track. - this is subjunctive. The coach <em>wishes </em>something would happen - he is going to make his students to what he wishes them to do. 

With verbs such as recommend, wish, suggest, demand, etc., subjunctive mood is used.
