What does break the floodgates of countless uncried tears mean

English
1 answer:
REY [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A floodgate is what it sounds like - a gate that holds back dangerous waters from something that needs to be protected; typically some sort of shoreline civilization.  To break it sets the water forth, which is represented as tears here.  This basically means that whatever was stopping that character from crying, whether it be pride, the situation, or other factors, is now gone, and they're ready to let out all of their pent-up tears.

The author of document C chooses to mention the increasing number of bullet rounds used in order to convey. Question 4 options:
user100 [1]

From the memoirs of Otto Lais, a member of the German Infantry Regiment number one hundred and sixty-nine, it is observed that certain comments were made in relation to the Battle of the Somme which lasted between 1914-1916.

  • A portion of the excerpt reads as follows:

<em>"Belt after belt was fire, 250 rounds - 1000 - 3000...18,000 rounds!"</em>

  • In order to determine what he meant by this statement, it is important to read the protext, the text, and the statement in context.

  • Hence the portions immediately before and after the statement relating to the  number of bullets read thus:

<em>"The machine gunners were earning their pay today. Belt after belt was fired, 250 rounds - 1,000 - 3,000...The British kept charging forward. Despite the fact that hundreds are already lying dead in the shell holes to our front, fresh waves keep emerging from the assault trenches...18,000 rounds!"</em>

Then there is the last sentence from that excerpt:

"<em>The youth of England bled to death in front of Serre (our position)"</em>

  • The report was one of bravery on their part and how they "dealt" with the English Army. Hence, the reference to bullet rounds was used to convey a sense of patriotism (Option D).    

  • If he meant to convey hatred, the document would have been filled with words describing the British army in such a manner.
