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"

What does Atticus do that makes Jem and Scout proud of their father?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

  1. This changes when Atticus shoots the mad dog. They find out that he is a sharp shooter and was infamous in the county as one-shot Finch. They were now proud of their father. Jem is confused that his father has kept this a secret and at first wants to know why Atticus would not be proud and brag about this ability.
  2. The reason Jem won't allow Scout to brag about Atticus's talent is because he wants to be a gentleman like his father and understands that having the ability to shoot beings is not something to take pride in.

ASAP!!!!! How did Hitler become known throughout Germany?
nikklg [1K]

Answer: 1. Adolf Hitler was appointed chancellor of Germany in 1933 following a series of electoral victories by the Nazi Party. He was one of the most powerful and notorious dictators of the 20th century. Hitler capitalized on economic woes, popular discontent and political infighting to take absolute power in Germany.

2. Most Italians believed that Italy had been treated very badly at Versailles. 460,000 Italians had died in the war, Italy had not been given the land that had been promised at the Secret Treaty of London and Italy was heavily in debt, mostly because of the USA.

3.  Italy faced unemployment, a decline in trade, rising taxes, and a weak and divided government.

4/5. He advocated the emergence of a dictator. Mussolini established a force called the fasci di combattimento (“fighting bands”), which is a group of fighters bound together by ties as close as those that secured the fasces of the lictors—the symbols of ancient Roman authority. Fascism was created and its symbol was devised. The Fascist movement grew larger in power and seized ideas of nationalism and anti-Bolshevism, Mussolini began to gain power at national level. He promised to restore order
