English
1 answer:
Eva8 [605]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Because they are exploiting she and her step-mother.

Explanation:

Gretel is the titular character in the short story, <em>''Gretel''</em> by <em>Garrison Keillor</em>. Gretel believes that her drunk of a father is exploiting both she and her stepmother and so dislikes him.

Gretel is also a writer but her brother covets her profits from publishing a book and wants the lion share for himself whilst giving her a meagre amount. The lawyer ensures that this happens by putting Gretel under a spell that made her sign a contract that gave her brother his wish. This makes her hate both her brother and the lawyer.

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty." (A) contains a hyperbole.

In literature, a hyperbole is a stylistic exaggeration. It is used to give a dramatic effect to a statement.

Here, the hyperbole is: "pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe." There are of course prices that the U.S. are going to refuse to pay, burdens they will not afford to carry, etc., but by exaggerating these commitments, Kennedy sounds more resolute and more persuasive.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

I believe it's a satire writing about how we need others to survive. If we can't rely on the people around us, then we become just like savages, and also won't be able to find a good way to live.

I hope this helps!
