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.

What is the primary purpose of the couplet in this
ElenaW [278]
What is the primary purpose of the couplet in this
sonnet?
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.
Rise, restive Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make Time's spoils despised every where.
Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life;
So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife.
- "Sonnet 100,
William Shakespeare
The purpose is to show the poet's belief in a grim
reaper who wields a scythe.
The purpose is to complete the 14 lines required to
make the poem a sonnet.

time described in the three quatrains
