Read this excerpt about the Vietnam War from "Ambush" by Tim O'Brien:
When she was nine, my daughter Kathleen asked if I had ever killed anyone. She knew about the war; she knew I'd been a soldier. "You keep writing war stories," she said, "so I guess you must've killed somebody." It was a difficult moment, but I did what seemed right, which was to say, "Of course not," and then to take her onto my lap and hold her for a while. Someday, I hope, she'll ask again. But here I want to pretend she's a grown-up. I want to tell her exactly what happened, or what I remember happening, and then I want to say to her that as a little girl she was absolutely right. This is why I keep writing war stories:
He was a short, slender young man of about twenty. I was afraid of him-afraid of something-and as he passed me on the trail I threw a grenade that exploded at his feet and killed him. . . .
Even now I haven't finished sorting it out. Sometimes I forgive myself, other times I don't. In the ordinary hours of life I try not to dwell on it, but now and then, when I'm reading a newspaper or just sitting alone in a room, I'll look up and see the young man coming out of the morning fog. I'll watch him walk toward me, his shoulders slightly stooped, his head cocked to the side, and he'll pass within a few yards of me and suddenly smile at some secret thought and then continue up the trail to where it bends back into the fog.
How does the author's specific word choice and stylistic devices affect the excerpt's tone? Be sure to use specific details from the text to support your answer.
Answer and Explanation:
First, we can say the tone of the excerpt is sad and regretful.
The author is careful in his word choice, especially when it comes to describing the man he killed. He does not describe him as an enemy, as dangerous. He does not try to convince himself or the reader that his actions were justifiable. The fact that he concisely explains how the killing happened, with direct sentences, also show he is being honest and straightforward. He does not try to paint a different picture of what happened. It is worth noting that he does not worry much about the man's appearance. All he says is that he was short, slender, and about twenty. We do not know if the man looked threatening. All we know is that the author was afraid, and that that was enough to do what he did.
As for the parts about his daughter and his own feelings, the author is also direct, concise. However, when he describes the man in his imagination, he gives more details, painting a more vivid picture than he did when he described the killing. Now we know how the man walks, what his posture and attitude are like. It seems that the author wishes to convey how his thoughts linger, how his regrets come back again and again.
How still it is; the signal light At set of sun shines palely green; A thrush sings; other sound there's none, Nor traveller to be seen
line explanation
I believe they are talking about seeing the northern lights ><
"how still it is" refers to how life seems to be still around the observer
"the signal light at set of sun" when the sun sets you are only able to see them then
"shines palely green" the color of the northern lights
"a thrush sings" a thrush is a song bird
"other sound there's none" there is no sound around except for that of the bird
"nor traveller to be seen" no one is around aside from the observer, themselves
this is my interpretation of it at least ><

100 POINTS HELP PLEASE Write an argumentative essay in which you state and defend a claim about whether it is ethical to target uninformed consumers.
Answer:
Explanation:
It is unethical for companies to target uninformed consumers. People inherently trust what they hear and see from mass media. So when a company makes claims in a commercial, people tend to believe what it says. It would be better if consumers are more critical of what they are told and collect more info on a product they want to buy. Product info should be available and accessible to consumers but some companies try to hide. That makes it unethical.
Answer:
Explanation:
it is right to target uninformed consumers. in a free market, consumers have access to all product info. so it is up to individual consumer to decide whether to become informed. producers do not make that decision for consumers even if they target those consumers. so there is nothing unethical. its the Darwinian principle applies to market economy.

Dad's Barbeque
1 As Mom pulled the car into the driveway, I stepped out and heard the sizzle of
2 barbecue. I walked towards the backyard and smelled the delicious scent of grilled
3 chicken. The sun was getting ready for its nightly rest and the moon prepared to take
4 its place. The picnic table felt as hot as a frying pan, but I sat down anyway. I looked
5 around the yard and realized that the grass was freshly mowed. Poised next to the
6 barbecue pit, Dad looked more dreamy than Tom Cruise. Soon, Dad carried to the table a
7 mountain of food stacked a mile high. Not caring what anyone thought, I pigged out on
8 chicken, hot dogs, and hamburgers. I savored the sweet, sour, and salty flavors as they
9 danced on my taste buds. Dad is the best barbecue chef in the entire world!
20. In line 9, the author states that "Dad is the best barbecue chef in the entire world!" Why is
this sentence considered a hyperbole?
(2Points)
d. Dad's barbecue is just average
Oc. The author could not possibly have taste-tested all of the chefs in the world to verify dad's "best" status.
b. It is an opinion
a. Dad is really not an actual chef.
Answer: C
Why: It's true. A hyperbole is an exaggeration of something, and that's what answer C is showing.
The author could not possibly have taste-tested all of the chefs in the world to verify dad's "best" status is this sentence considered a hyperbole. Hence, option C is correct.
What is hyperbole?The deliberate use of exaggeration and overstatement for emphasis and impact is known as hyperbole in rhetoric and literature.
The hyperbole should be understood to be an exaggeration by everybody who hears or reads it. Common hyperboles like "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse," "I've seen this movie a hundred times," and "That cost an arm and a leg" are certainly ones you've heard in regular conversations.
Extreme exaggeration is known as hyperbole. That shouldn't be interpreted literally. Hyperbole is a tool used by writers to convey ideas, accentuate emotions, or reveal information about a character.
Thus, option C is correct.
