I am here today to discuss the two Poems‚ ‘If I was the son of an Englishmen’ and ‘the man from Snowy River’ and their different representations and stereotypical aspects in both poems about Australia and Australians are fair and accurate or if they are exaggerated and inaccurate.

It was currently raining in a forest as two humanoid figures could be seeing traversing through it. One of the figures was a middle-aged man while other was a teenager. Even though it was raining quite heavily but not a single drop of rain fell on either the middle-aged man or the teenager. They were completely dry.

Johnson was a fearless‚ brave‚ noble‚ and inspired person‚ blind to the subtleties of human relations‚ deaf to the words of others‚ and convinced that he and he alone knew the truth. One word to describe him‚ pigheaded‚ and certainty not like some of our other contemporary political leaders. He was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth‚ though more like a silver foot in his mouth. Johnson ’s father died when he was four; there was no money left‚ so he was sent out as an apprentice when he was nine

Without these events the Civil War and the secession of the South could have been avoided

Was the Treaty of Versailles fair? Answer: The Entente and the US spoke with different voices in 1918-19. President Wilson talked about a peace without ’victors or vanquished’‚ which implied concepts of fairness‚ but Britain and France (and their allies) imposed a conventional treaty with winners and losers. That is the key issue. Answer In 1918 when the war had ended the League of Nations was drawn up‚ but at the same time the "big three" were planning a way to get compensation for the war

Of course Alfred Hitchcock was a misogynist‚ or at least had a neurotic compulsion to mistreat women in his films: everyone knows that. Or do they? If so‚ one must assume also that most of his heroines were masochistic‚ in that nearly all his leading actresses seem to have adored him. And if there was mistreatment‚ it mostly seems to have been meted out‚ and perceived by its apparent victims‚ as all in the spirit of innocent merriment.
