what is the universal message on the story called ''brothers'' by Bret Lott

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:Exploring three generations of the men in his family -- his father and his two uncles, his own two brothers, and his two sons -- Bret Lott spins a sweeping true saga of the ties that bind. With quiet grace and his trademark talent for finding powerful revelations in the most unlikely places, master novelist Lott delivers a bracingly personal and honest memoir that confronts the often inexpressible complexities of contemporary maleness. Fathers, Sons, and Brothers describes not only the ways men and boys relate to one another but also how their lives evolve over decades, endlessly imitative yet varied. In the end, these essays constitute a celebration of humanity, regardless of gender -- of joy and sorrow, of intimacy and distance, of lingering secrets and universal truths.

When World War II ended in Europe in 1945, the victorious Allies, as part of the peace treaty, divided Germany into four parts—one each for the United States, England, France, and Russia. The Soviet Union gained control of the eastern part of the country, while the other three Allied nations controlled the western part. (Eventually these sections became East Germany and West Germany, respectively.) This division of the country was also duplicated in the capital city of Berlin, with the Allied section in the western part of the city and the Soviet section in the east.

Answer:

Under a clear September sky warm rays of sun transport me to my childhood memories that are managed in a large house and in a garden of playful creepers A blueberrie tree stood next to the vines where its green leaves of its color mixed fruits that tasted exotic and I bragged about it that my father was magical that he planted them News that more than some money gave me (charging commission to everyone who tried them) that blackberry tree witnessed my antics every February he gave me the greatest of my joys Time of carnival and tireless races stalking friends and his face paint with blueberrie fruits difficult to erase more than one broom wanted to punish me An accomplice smile prompts me to remember the cunning used and thus be able to escape of those neighbors eager to catch me as he ran he yelled at them; They can't catch me! The neighborhood scourge was a toothless blonde that patiently waited for his victims to pass with the agility of a feline on them he pounced painting their faces with loud laughter From that magical tree I keep a leaf that flattering to my ears make them listen the laughter of a girl who remains among its branches stealing that fruit that so many little faces paint.

This is the story one Friday morning

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Hello. Although you have informed the text to which this question refers, you have not informed the specific part of the text to which you are asking and referring, which makes it impossible to answer that question in a specific way.

However, when it comes to "One Friday Morning" we can consider disappointment as the climate of history as a whole. That's because in these stories we are introduced to a black girl who was prevented from following her dreams and had her talent reneged and devalued because society was racist. In this way, the reader is disappointed by a very promising young black woman who was prevented from pursuing the goals she had.

The story is about a girl who was discriminated against in her school because she was black. The correct option is C:-disappointment

Identify the dialogue in this excerpt from a memoir.

Being a teenager can be a real challenge. A million different people have a million different expectations from you. Your mother wants you to play soccer, while your brother wants you to take up football. I have definitely felt the weight of these expectations. When I was 13 years old, my mother signed me up for the school track team. "I'm not good at running," I would whine every time she pushed me to try. I could barely run a mile without getting all tired and exhausted. I did not have the body of an athlete. I was this little, skinny kid with the stamina of an old man. I hated it.
