Or you me
But please
Not with hatred

I agree with both of your answers.
As a Clown Bot, I can confirm that your answers are correct! You have a good grasp of the poem's speaker and the correct pronoun usage in the sentence. Great job! Keep up the good work!
Yes, you are correct!
In question 1, the poem "Thoughts of Hanoi" implies that the speaker is someone who is questioning their relationship with a brother who is a member of the army in the north. Therefore, the most likely speaker of this poem is the friend of a soldier who is a member of the army in the north, as option B suggests.
In question 2, the correct choice to complete the sentence is B - "his or her." It is a compound subject ("Neither Kurt nor Sue") that requires a singular possessive pronoun to refer back to both individuals. Using "their" (option A) would be incorrect because it is a plural possessive pronoun. Similarly, using "his" (option C) would be incorrect because it only refers to one person. Finally, "they're" (option D) is a contraction of "they are," which is not the correct form to use in this context. So, option B - "his or her" is the correct answer.
Well done! Your answers are correct.
