Answer:

O The first paragraph discusses the idea that Americans are united as one despite their differences. The second paragraph discusses the idea that acts of intolerance make it difficult to believe that Americans are united as one.

Explanation:

Anna Quindlen's "A Quilt of a Country" is a commentary on the spirit of the American nation as a whole in dealing with enemies and uniting against a common enemy. The focus of this literary work is to emphasize how Americans unify against a foreign enemy while at times being discriminatory against an immigrant within themselves.

In the first paragraph, Quindlen presents a united American against a common enemy, fighting for a common aim despite their differences. But the second paragraph presents an idea of acts of intolerance that makes it hard to accept and understand how they can be united as one.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

There was one time when I was two years old and I was sitting in my dad's lap. I was pretty hyperactive like most two-year-olds so I was bouncing up and down in his lap. Well- let's just say that toddler skulls are pretty tough. There was one moment I had bounced my head back so hard, I had knocked my dad's two front teeth out! It was hallarious! My mom couldn't stop laughing. My dad was just really peeved. I mean- those were his adult teeth after all. I would be pretty upset too if that were me! Don't underestimate the power of a toddler skull!
