which three parts of this excerpt from editha by William Dean Howell's denote the meaninglessness of war​
g100num [7]

Answer:

a. They think they'll come marching back, somehow, just as gay as they went

c. some of those foreigners, that weren't there because they had any say about it, but because they had to be there, poor wretches

d.  You thought it would be all right for my George, your George, to kill the sons of those miserable mothers and the husbands of those girls that you would never see the faces of."

Explanation:

The short story "Editha" by William Dean Howell revolves around the character Editha who thinks that war is glorious and 'forces' her fiancé to enlist. But in the end, the man died, thus showing how useless war is.

After Editha persuades George to enlist for the war, he did not return alive, which led to the outburst of George's mother. She lamented that just because she (Editha) <em>"thought it would be all right for my George, your George, to kill the sons of those miserable mothers and the husbands of those girls that you would never see the faces of"</em> doesn't justify the war. She also commented on how people <em>"think they'll come marching back, somehow, just as gay as they went"</em>. She also referred to the foreigners who weren't there as <em>"poor wretches".</em>

Thus, <u>options a, c, and d shows the meaninglessness of war</u>.

Based on the information you read in the “What is GIS?” article, describe the purpose and function of GIS. Your answer should be
OlgaM077 [116]
The GIS is the Geographic Information System which is used for map making and related to the GPS to get the locations of things which go on the map. One advantage of the GIS is that it can store many types of information for a point on the map and hovering over that point can give one a list of the different types of information available. For example, a drill hole collar ie a discrete point can have the co-ordinates of the hole collar, the diameter of the hole, the inclination of the hole, the azimuth of the hole, dip tests on the hole, and even the assays if necessary.
