Piatt conveys her
realist views about nature and society through this poem. She seems to
suggest that the world, like nature, is not always ideal. She paints a
rational picture of society: “And my subject, the dove, coos on, /
Though my hand creep close to her nest.” These lines convey how the
world is made up of good people and bad people. The dove represents the
people who are benign and trusting, even with those out to harm them.
The dubious actions of the narrator of the poem depict those people who
try to take advantage of the trust and loyalty of the gentle people. The
speaker is depicted as flawed and human. She can hurt others and also
be hurt by others. Piatt does not seem to adhere to the romantic
idealization of nature and women.

Adverbs modify (describe) verbs or other adverbs and often end in -ly. You need to locate the verb to determine at least one of the adverbs (the action of the sentence.) This is a complex sentence because it has an independent clause (it was not exactly what he had in mind) and a subordinate clause (when he agreed to do the task). If you just look at the independent clause, or the one that can stand by itself, you will find the verb 'was'. Ask yourself 'was what'. The answer is not, which means it is the adverb. To find the adverb describing it, we again ask, 'not what'. The answer is exactly. So the answer is A.
Answer:
Because Henry seems to have a skewed perception of courage, it is possible that he could have continued to live his life in this "shame of captivity". On the other hand, perhaps he would have realized that although his regiment was defeated, he had still proved to himself that he could fight in the face of death. Therefore, he was still a man of courage and bravery.
