In history, I'm doing an assignment in which i need to analyze a couple of quotes. All the quotes are about the atomic bomb in WWII dropped in Hiroshima. i need some help analyzing the following quotes...

“A woman on the Arizona border reported that the sun rose twice that day, once very quickly. Horses in stables whined hysterically, toads fell silent, dogs shivered all morning in the desert heat”


and


“Among the observers, the response was awed silence. One scientist thought air itself was on fire. Another, watching monitoring equipment, took the bomb for a dud until he noticed the light and realized that his needles had jumped off their scales. Men were knocked down when the shock wave hit seconds after the blast, and they were deafened by the roar that followed”
 
1)
the sun only really rose once the other was the enormous explosion, animals could Sense that something was wrong and acted peculiar.

2)talking about the emence power of the bomb and the sudden heat and Noise that followed the explosion.

it seems fairly straight forward, Analise the text take notes and then expand ur notes ect...

good luck
