Introduction.

A book's introduction is closely related to the content of the book itself. Usually found in nonfiction work, the introduction may summarize the main argument presented in the rest of the book, define any important terms, or fill in background details.

PLEASE HELP

Not much is said about the protagonist's cultural background in "Condensed Milk". He does refer to himself and other prisoners as "politicals":

'There was no reason for us politicals to be there . . .' This most likely means the protagonist is an educated man, possibly a writer or a journalist whose words and work was deemed dangerous by the Russian government.

Such a background helps the protagonist understand how things really work at the camp. He knows the offer to escape is a trap. He is smart and cunning enough to get some condensed milk out of the deal and then to break it off. He uses his intelligence to stay alive a little longer.

<h3>Who is Varlam Shalamov?</h3>

"Condensed Milk" is a short story by Russian author Varlam Shalamov (1907-1982). It was written based on the author's experience as a prisoner at a Gulag, a forced-labor camp.

The name and previous history of the protagonist are not revealed. He does not belong to the same group as the thieves, for example. He was arrested for being "political", which leads to assumptions about his background. He is most likely educated, which means he can be seen as a threat to the government for having his own opinions and the power to express them.

In conclusion, the protagonist of "Condensed Milk" uses his intelligence and knowledge to remain alive.

Read the passage. And how come we think dogs are so smart? Sure a dog might be clever enough to fetch his leash when he wants to

Nataly_w [17]

C is the choice I would make because I believe the writer is planning to answer this question: "and how come we think dogs are so smart". The writer never tells us what dogs can't do (a) or mention others being dumb (b) and doesn't make fun of humans (d)

What are the best ways to convince someone that your ideas or your statements are correct?How do you usually get your way? (4+ s

Darya [45]

The best way to do so is by stating your claim, and use evidence to support it. If there is no evidence to support your claim, it is simply just an opinion and people will have no reason to think you are right.

Hope this helped, have a good day :)
