I listened to the mp3, and i believe that she uses concrete  language to create vivid images of the human effects of war. It is concrete, because it appeals to the senses and gives vivid details about the life in Vietnam during the Vietnam War. It gives us details about how the Vietnam people thought and lived through the war.

"I still remember her eyes drawing the blood like waters, and the rice, there were maggots in [the] rice, no water to flush them out." This is because of the famine that resulted in the US overusing Agent Orange and the like to burn out the Viet Cong.

"When all else fail, attack the water"  This is because water is important to the human body. In an undeveloped country like the Vietnam (during that time), fresh, clean, drinking water is hard to get, and so they rely on clean streams. When the water is hit with poison or is gone, morale drops, and the enemies slowly die out.

"Grand Children's ate the spit-flushed rice" This was because their were maggots with the rice, and the Grandmother ate the maggots to give the children more fresh food.



And as the ending goes: "When all else fail, attack the water"

Your friend Hugh asks you to outline the steps involved with the writing process. Which of the following options would you state
Leviafan [203]
<span>The correct answer is B. Writing is a process, meaning there are several steps involved. Before you start writing, it's better to plan it out, first with brainstorming and then with an outline, in order to know ahead of time what you're going to talk about. If you don't plan, you could run the risk of writing your paper in a stream-of-conscious manner, which means you'd be writing whatever comes to mind at the time. This could lead to disorganization and confusion. After planning, you will write your first draft, then you will want to edit it for any mistakes, and finally you will write your final draft. </span>
