Answer:

power and control

Explanation:

Armed conflict started in April of 1775 between the American colonists and the soldiers from Britain. When the issue grew into a full-blown revolutionary war by the next summer, the delegates of the continental congress were entrusted with the responsibility of voting on the issue. A five-man committee Thomas Jefferson and John Adams was formed to draft the statement of the intentions the colonies had.

The congress adopted the declaration of independence in 1776 which was mostly written by Jefferson.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) uses a fine humor style which is easily detected in extracts like:

<em>"Thish-yer Smiley had a mare; the boys called the fifteen minute nag(...) for all she was so slow and always had the asthma, or the distemper or the consumption, or something of that kind."</em>

<em>"...And he had a little small bull pup, that to look at him you´d think he warn´t worth a cent(...) his underjaw´d begin to stick out like the fo´castle of a steamboat..."</em>

<em>"...He ketched a frog one day, and took him home, and said he cal´klated to edercate him(...) and you bet you he did learn him, too.</em>

Twain is satirizing several aspects of American life, but specially the country "punks" who tend to speak at length about subjects that are close to them but are really unimportant an nonsensical.

What does the phrase “a tart temper mellows with age, and a sharp tongue is the only edge tool that grows keener by constant use
abruzzese [7]

The given phrase means that a person with bad temper never gets better or change with age nor does a sharp tongue changed. Instead, a sharp tongue or someone who is constantly nagging only gets better with the constant nagging.

The given phrase is from Washington Irving's "Rip Van Winkle". The story revolves around Rip Van Winkle and how his 'sleep' in the woods resulted in a loss of years where everyone had seemed to be gone while he was asleep in the woods.

  • The phrase was spoken by the narrator while describing Rip Van Winkle.
  • The phrase <em>"a tart temper never mellows with age"</em> means that a person with a sour or even a bad temper never changes with age.
  • This, in other words, means growing old has nothing to do with a person's change in attitude or temper.
  • Likewise, the continuing phrase <em>"a sharp tongue is an only edged tool that grows keener by constant use"</em> also refers to a person's character or attitude.
  • The phrase meant that someone who is good at nagging or complaining only gets better with constant use of the mouth/tongue.
  • This means that a person who's constantly nagging will only find better words and actions to further the nagging.

The given phrase is a metaphor that the speaker made to highlight a person's behavior, attitude. This phrase can be seen or found in Irving's short story.
