Answer:

To help the reader understand the intense pressure of the situation.

Explanation:

Catherine Thimmesh's "Team Moon: How 400,000 People Landed Apollo 11 on the Moon," tells the story of how a team of experts helped in the success of the Apollo 11 mission. The book delves into the challenges faced and how they were overcome by the whole team.

In the given excerpt from the text, the author reveals the problem faced by the team in <em>"burping"</em> the engine. While it seemed dangerous to do that, the opinion to abort the mission was <em>"quickly overruled by the Grumman and NASA leadership"</em> who instead decided that <em>"it would be safe to gently, gently burp the engine."</em>

And by presenting the scene with a problem-solution text structure, the <u>author helps the reader understand the intense pressure that the situation presents.</u>

Answer: Macduff and his men cut off tree branches and hide behind them while approaching Macbeth's castle.

Explanation:

In Shakespeare's <em>Macbeth</em>, Macbeth kills King Duncan in order to become a king, and eventually comes to the throne. However, his life turns into nightmare and he lives in constant fear that someone is going to kill him out of revenge.

The three witches tell Macbeth that he would not be defeated until Birnam Wood comes to Dunsinane. This makes Macbeth relaxed, as he finds it impossible for the trees to move. However, Macduff's army cuts off the tree branches on their way to Macbeth's castle, which, if observed from the distance, looked like the trees were moving. That is how the witches' prophecy comes true.
