Essay on the text of the unified state exam about parental love. Mamin Is A Siberian. Problems
In this text, the author reflects on the problem of maternal selflessness, which is fundamental, both in the animal world and in the human world. To reveal this topic, Mamin-Sibiryak tells a story that happened to an old hunter named Emelya. For several days, he wandered through the forest to shoot a fawn and bring it to his sick grandson, and finally came upon the track of a DOE with a calf. But it was not so easy to kill them: "the Noble animal risked its life ten times trying to lead the hunter away from the hiding fawn; old Emelya was both angry and surprised at the courage of his victim." This game of life and death lasted for a long time, but in the end Emelya tracked down the fawn. He had already cocked the trigger and was preparing to shoot: "But it was at this moment that the old hunter remembered with what heroism his mother protected the calf, remembered how his mother Grishutka saved her son from the wolves with her life. Just like that, old emeli felt something break in his chest, and he lowered the rifle.»
Thus, the author shows that the mother is always ready to give her life for her child. Whether animal or human, the maternal instinct always comes first. The author's position is that there is no difference between an animal mother and a human mother, since both are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of their child's life. I completely agree with the author's opinion.
As proof, I will give you two examples. So, in the novel by the English writer J. K. Rowling "Harry Potter", Lily Potter, Harry's mother, sacrificed herself for the sake of her son. When Voldemort uses a deadly spell to kill Harry, she covers him with her body, thereby saving him from being killed. As a second example, I will cite a case from my own life. While walking in Voronezh, I saw a multi-storey building on fire. The fire was in full swing and then I noticed a cat running into the building. After a couple of minutes, she got out of a high-rise building, dragging a kitten by the scruff of the neck, thereby risking her life, she saved her child.
These two examples show that whether the mother was an animal or a human, she is always a mother who will give her life for her child. Thus, we can conclude that the feeling of motherhood in humans is not different from the feeling of motherhood in animals.
