Answer:

I think that a patriotic poem can be a riddle so it depends on the poem, but in vast majority my answer is True

Explanation:

A conundrum means a puzzling question or problem. The word conundrum can be used in a sentence as the word situation like "James was trying to answer a puzzling riddle and found himself in quite a deep conundrum."

Example here for a patriotic conudrum poem by Richard Ben:

The Conundrum

It is the noblest honour to serve,

But the most natural thing to love,

I present to you this conundrum,

Which is better to love or to serve?

To love is natural, to serve is noble,

Yet there exists no greater foe than these,

Man must choose,

If love triumph nobility is sacrificed,

If service triumph passion is sacrificed,

To ask man not to serve is blasphemy,

To ask man not to love is inhumane,

Shall we become stone’s to serve or

Become traitors to love.

True service enlists love, and there can

Be no love without service.

For which is better the love of a women

Or the admiration of men.

My weeping is two-fold,

One for never dreaming and

The other for never loving.

What is the author’s purpose in a work of nonfiction?

motikmotik

The correct answer is "the universal topic". Universal topics are non specific themes which can be the main focus of an essay for example, "food", "animals", "friendship", "love", among other. Nonfictional works could be focused of any universal topic, and the author's purpose by writing the work is to elaborate in this topic with her or his readers.

Malcolmx:How does the state Welfare humiliate and dehumanize the

yan [13]

Answer:

The Welfare people made constant visits to the family home and look at them as if they are inferior to them. They also present Mrs. Little of being insane and admitted to a psychiatric hospital.

Explanation:

"The Autobiography of Malcolm X" by Malcolm X and Alex Haley was a book that details the life of Malcolm Little from his childhood till his later years. The book became one of the most read and the most sought non-fictional book of all times.

Even though it was a product of Haley's interview with Malcolm, the book was directly addressed to the readers making it easily relatable to them. In chapter I of the book, Malcolm mentions one instance when the State Welfare people used to visit their home. He remembered how they looked at them "in a way that had about it the feeling-at least for me-that we were not people. In their eyesight we were just _things_, that was all". He also stated "acted as if they owned us, as if we were their private property."

After their mother, he became the target of the Welfare people due to his stealing. They also reported to the government that their mother Mrs. Little "was losing their mind". All of these acts by the Welfare people made their life miserable.

The State does not continue to do so as most of the Welfare organisations/ people are more sympathetic to the cause of the welfare of the people.
