Paragraph four of Anna Quindlen "Quilt of a country" is mainly constructed with questions, and repeats the words "What is the point" at the beginning of each question.

She is trying to prove her point, that despite all of the cultures and ethnicities and different backgrounds that constitute the American people, it is not enough to disintegrate the nation, while other countries were torn apart by these differences.

Which of the following quotes from Orpheus and eurydice best shows the power of Orpheus music?
Degger [83]
For the first question the best quote emphasising the power of his music would be “His songs were so sad that no human could bear to listen to them”. As in they moved people to the point it hurt them to listen, because his music was that powerful. The first and second answer choice are just saying he’s skilled but not necessarily that it’s powerful and then the last answer choice isn’t saying anything about the music just that he was singing.

The other one I’m not as sure of but I believe it would be showing the strength of his love for his wife, it could be the second one but I would say it wasn’t. The last answer choice is to literal and it can’t be comparing his life to a life without his wife’s love because it isn’t a simile or a metaphor which are for comparisons.
