2 all the years that have passed have not dimmed my memory of that first glorious autumn. the new country lay open before me: there were no fences in those days. sometimes i followed the sunflower-bordered roads. fuchs told me that the sunflowers were introduced into that country by the mormons; that at the time of the persecution, when they left missouri and struck out into the wilderness to find a place where they could worship god in their own way, the members of the first exploring party, crossing the plains to utah, scattered sunflower seed as they went. the next summer, when the long trains of wagons came through with all the women and children, they had the sunflower trail to follow. i believe that botanists do not confirm fuchs's story, but insist that the sunflower was native to those plains. nevertheless, that legend has stuck in my mind, and sunflower-bordered roads always seem to me the roads to freedom.

the narrator uses legend of the mormons to explain
a) why the mormons left utah.
b) why there were no fences at that time.
c) how he found his way through the countryside.
d) how the sunflowers came to line the sides of the roads.

Check my grammar: dear mr. peter szulczewskisubject: loyal customer’s complainti visited wish. com last month and found a 2-terabyte hard drive for only $69.99, an alive aquarium piranha fish for $7.99 and an unlocked samsung galaxy s9 phone for $599.99. the price of such quality item got me to buy all three of them thinking it is exactly what the description and pictures shows it be. the items arrived today and i am for giving me an actual samsung galaxy s9 for a low price but i got lied about the two other items, i know it doesn't always happen but we are losing our trust everytime it happens. i got 500gb hard drive and a plastic sardine fish. i thought i saved money but a 500-gigabyte hard drive should only be worth $40 and i am ok that they gave me a plastic fish because it is only $8 but they gave me a sardine plastic fish which is a very uninteresting species of fish and i have no use for it. you again for the phone. i like buying in your website and admire the prices you give to your items. i will not ask for a refund for the fish and hard drive but you should tell your sellers to use a truthful descriptions of their products because if they keep deceiving us, you might lose a lot of loyal customers. sincerely, russell john javierloyal customer
