The quiet car can make journeys peaceful and productive
Okay. I cannot see the article, again but will try my hardest to answer this anyway.
The purpose can usually be seen in the first sentence or paragraph (unless you have an excerpt). Though it may not be too specific it will usually be backed up by evidence later in the passage. A purpose can always be proven by text details.
Choice of details: should support the purpose
organization: Some things are good for some purposes.
e.g. cause effect, shows the good or bad effects of a purpose. The author can support the purpose or no.
chronological can show how something has changed over time.
etc.
Try to identify the main structure and how the passage is organized and how it supports the main idea.
This question is actually a matter of opinion. Some would say he shows strength by knowing he has to sacrifice six of his men when he has already lost so many. They say it shows he's a strong character and a determined leader. That he's willing to sacrifice anything for his cause. That's a very strong character trait. Some, however, would say it shows he's weak. Not only did he know it wouldn't be him who died, he also didn't tell his remaining men. He let six of them die. He knew they would and he did not say anything. I guess whatever side you take is up to you.
