Read the excerpt from Takoda's narrative. The start of school on the reservation was always hectic. I couldn't hear myself think

Answer:

A)

At a superficial level, the narrator in the poem "The Parrot in the Cage" is identified as the parrot itself. At a deeper level, it reflects the poet or any contemporary individual.

B)

The parrot considers itself "twice born" as it has experienced two vastly different existences. Initially, it was born free in the wild, followed by a caged birth later on.

Explanation:

On a deeper level, the poet speaks of the feelings of modern individuals trapped by societal expectations to work and strive for more. People are required to engage in tasks they dislike, persevering even in states of exhaustion.

The two separate lives of the captive parrot signify its existence before and after being trapped. The first stage allowed for complete freedom in the forests, where it could eat, drink, chatter, and fly at will. The second phase commenced with confinement, leading to the inability to soar, sip fresh waters from streams, or enjoy luscious fruits from the forest.

These contrasting lives can mirror human existence, where childhood represents freedom, while adulthood is marked by being ensnared by societal obligations and expected to satisfy one's employer.

Additionally, we can view these two existences as reflective of humanity's past and present. In earlier times, individuals lived with greater freedom and satisfaction, whereas contemporary life demands relentless effort to meet societal standards. Humanity is no longer human; rather, they’ve transformed into machines.

The British took their time, ensuring that the telegram would provoke the US into joining the war.

Admiral William Hall was aware that there was increasing anger in America following Germany's declaration on January 31 to renew unrestricted submarine warfare. Realizing that the U.S. was nearing its entry into the conflict, Hall decided to wait until February 24, believing that the Zimmermann telegram would push the U.S. to align with the Allied forces. He presented the telegram without disclosing that the Germans' codes had been broken by the British.

Zimmermann, the German Foreign Secretary, had sent a telegram to Count Von Bernstoff, the German ambassador in Washington, aiming to persuade Mexico to ally with Germany.
