Answer:

The magnet's real problem with being a magnet is:

D. The magnet can't get physically close to his friends because their magnetic forces push each other away.

Explanation:

In the short story "The Sad Tale of the Lonely Magnet," the narrator is the magnet himself. He is in general happy for being a magnet, saying it is advantageous to be able to hold on to things without using his hands. He does express some difficulties concerning big metallic objects, such as buses, because he has to use a lot of strength to pass by them without getting stuck. But that is not the issue that really bothers him.

The magnet's real problem is the fact that he can't get physically close to his friends. They are pushed away by the magnetic force they exert. That makes him sad, especially because he would like to hug, high five, or simply shake hands with his best friend. In the end of the story, the magnet meets someone who has the opposite polarity and, for that reason, instead of repelling, they attract each other. So, we have a happy ending.

abruzzese [7]

At first the Americans tried to engage the British using conventional tactics. The British at the time has seasoned troops who fought in previous conflicts. They were already disciplined as well as trained and commanded by veteran officers. The patriots started with volunteers who were new to battle as well as officers who were not on the same level as the British when it comes to experience and training. That’s why the patriots were defeated in battle during the early days of the Revolution. Some of those who fought for the Revolution were hunters and were armed with rifled muskets that can shoot farther and was more accurate. They also knew the land better than anyone and utilized those strengths to fight the British through ambush and shooting them from a distance.
