In the early months of the Civil War, a small group of Union troops unsuccessfully attacked the Confederates. One month later, President Lincoln made a decision. He decided that it was time to stage a major offensive. The First
Battle of Bull Run (called the Battle of Manassas in the South) was the first major land battle of the Civil War.
Brigadier General Irvin McDowell was chosen to lead the charge. At first, McDowell protested. He said that his
soldiers were too inexperienced. Lincoln reminded him that the Confederates were also inexperienced.

explanation:

you only need simple sentences to answer this. just answer these questions.

what do you think annie thinks of the mother? do you think annie believes the mother is a fit mother for helen.

what about the father? what would annie think of him? she might not like him, but does she respect him.

how about the son? would annie think he is the only voice of sanity in an insane place?

what about helen herself? this is the key question. how does she see helen? what do you suppose she thought her first job was going to be.

these aren't hard questions. just state the obvious. annie is not that well educated: she just knows what she has to do. write it that way.
