Question

Which explanation about "I explain a few things Best develops the speakers viewpoint that adversity only makes his compatriots stronger?

Answer 1

D)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the answer choices are these-

By describing the “Bandits with airplanes and with Moors,” the speaker demonstrates that these aggressors will not be tolerated.

The image of jackals and vipers illustrates that the opponents are savage and will fight viciously in order to win the war.

The image of flames coming out of the earth to devour people shows the level of suffering the war causes citizens to endure.

By stating that citizens will “rise up / to drown you in a single wave,” the speaker indicates they are determined to overcome their opponents.

Answer 2

While I don't see anything written about the speaker's viewpoint, from experience I know that adversity will only make his compatriots stronger. As an example from experience, while working at an open pit mine in BC, Canada, my compatriot and I had to work 30 hours straight on a diamond drill hole which was causing problems. The hole was caving and the drill rods were getting plugged with bentonite which we used to seal the hole off to install piezometers ie instruments to measure water pressure in the hole. So we found a way to open the rods and use concrete mixed with bentonite to still seal the piezometers and succeeded in our endeavour so this was getting strong from adversity.
