Answer:

You have to do the work! Good luck. I can help a little but you have to write it in your own words.

Explanation:

The story begins with a Union soldier named Carter Druse struggling to stay awake at his duty post. He knows that sleeping is a treasonous act; if the Confederacy becomes aware of the Union plan to ambush their camp, Druse's fellow soldiers will be in danger. As he lies at his post, Druse remembers the day that he told his father of his intentions to join the Union army and his father's disappointment that Carter did not choose the Confederacy. As his moDruse becomes alert when he sees a Confederate soldier in the distance. He is immediately taken aback by the artistic beauty of the image of the soldier in the distance. Druse draws his gun to shoot, but then 'the horseman turned his head and looked in the direction of his concealed foeman--seemed to look into his very face, into his eyes, into his brave, compassionate heart.' Druse falls ill and is unable to follow through with killing this man. Then, remembering his duty, and realizing that the Confederate soldier must have seen some of his peers as they watered their horses, Druse fires his weapon.

A Federal officer happens by in time to see the Confederate soldier and his horse falling off the cliff, which is so beautiful in the way that the horse appears to be flying, that he begins to wonder if he is 'the chosen scribe of some new Apocalypse.' Rattled, the officer returns to his commander and decides not to mention what he has seen.

Druse's commanding officer hears the shot and asks for a report about what has happened. Druse explains that he shot at a horse in the distance. When asked if there was anyone on the horse, Druse admits that the Confederate soldier he shot was ironically his father.ther was on her death bed, Carter and his father decide not to tell her, but part respectfully.

Point of view: Here’s an example of the narrative from the first-person point of view:

A dagger sliced through my heart when my son told me he would betray our family legacy and join the Union army, but I steeled myself, and offered not the slightest hint of rage or disappointment.

Which is an example of faulty coordination?
Vitek1552 [10]
The sentence that is an example of a faulty coordination is: The guitar is used in a lot of contemporary music, and the instrument probably originated in Spain during the 1500s. What makes this sentence's coordination faulty is that, the first part talks about guitars are used in contemporary music, but on the second clause, the topic became the history of the instrument. There is no coherence in the sentence.
