Read the excerpt below from Chris Jacobs' reflective essay called "Everlasting Wannabe." As you read, think about his analogy an

d how it helps get his point across.
Much like the Gobstopper, I resorted to changing my color as time went by. In my red phase, I briefly joined a dodgeball league. When I was orange, I played Dungeons & Dragons and collected Magic: The Gathering. Yellow was all about doing thankless crew work in the school's small theater group, and green played out in endless rewinds of Smashing Pumpkins tapes, including a Nine Inch Nails concert where I got bit in the arm for blocking someone else's view. Blue was spent in horror-movie marathons with two girls who secretly hated each other, and the people that I ran with while purple have sworn me to a secrecy I will never betray.

What point does the analogy of the Gobstoppers help the writer make?

The Gobstoppers show how sweet-natured the writer is.

They indicate that much like Gobstoppers, change can cause you to be unhealthy.

The Gobstoppers show how candy can be used to persuade others to like you.

They indicate that much like his favorite candy, he changed colors very easily.

Which of the following responsibilities of citizenship allows an exception for religious reasons?
julsineya [31]

The answer is (D) taking up arms to defend the nation exempts a person from religious reasons.

In all the other three cases anybody would be eligible to do so as a citizen.

But taking up arms to defend the nation not only needs mental courage and physical strength but also some motivation to represent the entire nation. Therefore, those taking up arms to defend their nation would be doing some service which is what religion aims at. They are both one and the same serving people in general or serving people during crisis (D). This social service by taking the arms to defend the nation coincides with the goal of Religion.
