General Clinton, concerned about what General Howe was planning and doing, made use of a mask to write a secret message in a letter to General Burgoyne.

Before writing the letter, Clinton had placed an hourglass-shaped mask on a piece of paper and then had formed the secret message within that shape.

The unmasked letter had enough false information in it to fool any American who happened to see it. But when Burgoyne viewed the letter with the mask, he read Clinton's view of the real situation: Howe has made a bad move; I don't have enough men to do anything about it.

The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to

describe a form of code writing using an example.
explain the mistakes of General Howe during the war.
entertain the reader with a humorous story of miscommunication.
argue that using a mask is the best method for sending secret messages.

Answer:

The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to describe a form of code writing using an example.

In the text in question, the author describes how General Clinton inserted a secret message in a text apparently unrelated to the information that he wanted to convey. That is, through a real situation, he exemplifies how a secret message could be introduced that changed the course of history.

A distaste for everything that had happened to him in the war set in because of the lies he had told. All of the times that had been able to make him feel cool and clear inside himself when he thought of them; the times so long back when he had done the one thing, the only thing for a man to do, easily and naturally, when he might have done something else, now lost their cool, valuable quality and then were lost themselves. What does the excerpt reveal about Krebs

For there lay The Combs-the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway
window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with Jewelled rims-Just the shade to wear in the beautiful
vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over
them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have
adomed the coveted adornments were gone.
But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say.
"My hair grows so fast, Jimi And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, 'Oh, ohr" Jim had not
yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal
seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to
find it You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it
looks on it
Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and
smiled. Delia,' said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep'em a while. They're too nice to use
Jest at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops
on."
The magi, as you know, were wise men-wonderfully wise men-who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger.
They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, thelr gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly
bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful
chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of
their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were
the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the
magi.

Review: In Death of a Salesman,' Arthur Miller words take on a new edge
'Early in "Death of a Salesman" it is late at night and an exhausted Willy Loman arrives
home having not made it to even one of his sales calls that day The end is nigh for Willy, that's clear
from the moment we see him shuffle in. Upstairs are his two sons, Biff and Happy, smoking
cigarettes together in the darkness of their shared childhood home, contemplating their lives They
are young men but not that young. Biff is 34. Happy, 32 - old enough to have shaken off any
residual arrested development that might have followed them out of their teens.
But here they si, in Biffs old bedroom, a couple of 30-something, middle class straight
white guys who have the privilege to look around and scoff at a world they think hasn't given them
enough opportunities - or rather, the night sort of opportunities, fulfilling opportunities. (It makes you
think this production might not be a bad pairing with "Straight White Men" by Young Jean Lee,
currently in a run at Steppenwolf.)
Sit's not that Biff and Happy arent allowed a measure of discontent in the privacy of this
moment. But as men, they are their own worst enemies. And only Biff ultimately comes to see this.
"In this 1949 drama, Arthur Miller managed to evoke both a compassion and a piercing
judgmental stare for these men, Willy included (played here by Brian Parry), and it might be one of
the most important reasons the play works such magic.
The lies in the Loman house - the delusions and exaggerations -- are many Linda (Jan
Ellen Graves), the all-seeing matriarch, is the key enabler, but make no mistake, she has come to
understand all too clearly. She just had the bad luck of hitching herself to the wrong guy (not that she
sees it that way Linda has her own delusions as well). She is surrounded by inward-looking men
who are never ever satisfied, searching for extemal validation and quick to lash out when
confronted with the reality of their mediocrity.
Sit's a funny thing, hearing the way some of Miller's dialogue is phrased. Willy has a way of
talking, a cadence there's no missing it, a certain boastful, outer-borough New York
distinctiveness to it that sounds very familiar to the news cycle these days, and I wasnt expecting it:
Toy got important contacts!" Willy says to his frenemy and next-door neighbor Charley
(Charley with a priceless, sarcastic response: "Glad to hear it, Willy ") 17 go to Hartford, I'm very
well-liked in Hartfordre or of his son, Biff: "He's got loads of personality, loads of it!"
The Loman men are con artists. Their primary mark? Themselves. Under the direction of
Steve Scott, Matt Edmonds' foundering Biff and Zach De Nardi's phony-baloney Happy really do
look and feel like restless brothers raised together in that home. (De Nardi is so good, you would
never know he was filling in for Benjamin Kirberger, who has been having some health issues but is
hoping to return to the production)
Something about the actual production design, though, doesn't quite work. It wisely avaids
momentum-killing set changes, but the physical world of the play feels like a whole lot of nothing.
which is a step down considering Redtwist has experimented with some incredible set designs in the
pest
Director Scott's production is really about the performances - small things. Ike the way
Parry's Willy, on his way to work, distractedly says, "Eh, goodbye, I'm late - and Scott also has a
couple of aces up his sleeve in the smaller roles of Charley (played by Adam Bitterman) and
Charley's son, Bernard, the bookworm-turned-hotshot lawyer (played by Devon J. Nimerfroh). The
way Nimerfroh finesses that late pivotal scene with Willy, when he delicately tries to get to the
bottom of the Loman family neurosis - it's just terrific, a wonderful bit of hesitancy and confidence
all of it coming through in his body language
But let's talk about Bitterman, because he is giving such a delicious scene-stealing
perfomance, with a perfect roughshod New York accent that I wanted to follow him off stage and
watch whatever play Charley should have been starring in When Wily finds out Bemard is arguing a
case before the Supreme Court, he says to Chaney, somewhat surprised "He didn't mention!
Charley's beautiful throwaway reply "He didn't hatta"
PAnd therein lies the difference A Loman would have been bragging about it all day.

Read this excerpt from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. The silver trump of freedom had roused my soul to eternal wakefulness. Freedom now appeared, to disappear no more forever. It was heard in every sound, and seen in every thing. It was ever present to torment me with a sense of my wretched condition. I saw nothing without seeing it, I heard nothing without hearing it, and felt nothing without feeling it. It looked from every star, it smiled in every calm, breathed in every wind, and moved in every storm. What inference can be drawn about Douglass in this excerpt
