which two themes of O'Neill's Beyond the Horizon are reflected in this excerpt from the play?
ROBERT: Not so long when you come to consider it. You know the Sunda sails around the Horn for Yokohama first, and that's a
long voyage on a sailing ship: and if we go to any of the other places Uncle mentions-India, or Australia, or South Africa, or South
America--theyll be long voyages, too.
ANDREW: You can have all those foreign parts for all of me. (After a pause) Ma's going to miss you a lot, Rob.
ROBERT: Yes and I'll miss her.
ANDREW: And Pa ain't feeling none too happy to have you go-though he's been trying not to show it.
ROBERT: I can see how he feels.
ANDREW: And you can bet that I'm not giving any cheers about it. (He puts one hand on the fence near ROBER7).
ROBERT: (putting one hand on top of ANDREWS with a gesture almost of shyness) I know that too, Andy.
ANDREW: I'll miss you as much as anybody. I guess. You see, you and I ain't like most brothers-always fighting and separated a lot
of the time, while we've always been together-just the two of us. It's different with us. That's why it hits so hard, I guess.
ROBERT: (with feeling) It's just as hard for me, Andy-believe that! i hate to leave you and the old folks-but-I feel I've got to.
There's something calling me— (He points to the horizon) Oh, I can't just explain it to you, Andy.

{asap} select the correct text in the passage. which line in this excerpt from jonathan swift's "a modest proposal" uses the rhetorical device of irony? and secondly, there being a round million of creatures in humane figure throughout this kingdom, whose whole subsistence put into a common stock, would leave them in debt two million of pounds sterling, adding those who are beggars by profession, to the bulk of farmers, cottagers and labourers, with their wives and children, who are beggars in effect; i desire those politicians who dislike my overture, and may perhaps be so bold to attempt an answer, that they will first ask the parents of these mortals, whether they would not at this day think it a great happiness to have been sold for food at a year old, in the manner i prescribe, and thereby have avoided such a perpetual scene of misfortunes, as they have since gone through, by the oppression of landlords, the impossibility of paying rent without money or trade, the want of common sustenance, with neither house nor cloaths to cover them from the inclemencies of the weather, and the most inevitable prospect of intailing the like, or greater miseries, upon their breed for ever. i profess, in the sincerity of my heart, that i have not the least personal interest in endeavouring to promote this necessary work, having no other motive than the publick good of my country, by advancing our trade, providing for infants, relieving the poor, and giving some pleasure to the rich. i have no children, by which i can propose to get a single penny; the youngest being nine years old, and my wife past child-bearing. lines highlighted: - there being a round million of creatures in humane figure throughout this kingdom, whose whole subsistence put into a common stock, would leave them in debt two million of pounds sterling, - they have since gone through, by the oppression of landlords, the impossibility of paying rent without money or trade, the want of common sustenance, with neither house nor cloaths to cover them from the inclemencies of the weather - i have not the least personal interest in endeavouring to promote this necessary work, having no other motive than the publick good of my country, - i have no children, by which i can propose to get a single penny; the youngest being nine years old, and my wife past child-bearing.

Read the excerpt from elie wiesel’s all rivers run to the sea. why were those trains allowed to roll unhindered into poland? why were the tracks leading to birkenau never bombed? i have put these questions to american presidents and generals and to high-ranking soviet officers. since moscow and washington knew what the killers were doing in the death camps, why was nothing done at least to slow down their “production”? that not a single allied military aircraft ever tried to destroy the rail lines converging on auschwitz remains an outrageous enigma to me. birkenau was “processing” ten thousand jews a day. stopping a single convoy for a single night—or even for just a few hours—would have prolonged so many lives. based on the paragraph, the author would most likely agree that it is best to avoid confrontation at all costs. people need to be proactive when they witness an injustice. countries should remain neutral to keep alliances strong. moscow and washington are to be blamed for the holocaust.
