Answer:
In Churchill's "Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat" speech, he invites the House to approve of the war measures he has put into place.
Explanation:
This speech is a famous one given by Prime Minister Winston Churchill at the beginning of WWII. His call "to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us" is now famous in British history.
Specifically, he uses the word invite in the context of "I now invite the House, by the Resolution which stands in my name, to record its approval of the steps taken and to declare its confidence in the new Government."
He has just created a War Cabinet that will hopefully provide strong administration for the nation against the German threat. He is then seeking the government's support of his actions.
If this is how you've presented the question, Its a bit hard to answer it when one hasn't read these books. It'd be best if you'd put both books into a summary for us to go based off of, at most.
The answer is A because theres nothing else to modify.
I believe that the most fitting answer for this question would be Victor's curiosity and thirst for knowledge. Although this is typically seen as a positive characteristic, it ends up consuming Victor and contributing to his downfall. It leads to him creating his monster, which ultimately destroys him in the end. Hope this helps.
I think the correct answer is: They are both willing to risk their lives.
If we understand the word "willing" as ready to do something, this means they both are ready to risk their lives. We could think that the correct answer is "They are both helpless and weak" but in the first excerpt although he seems weak, he has been able to get food for his family and escape from the gamekeepers, even hitting them with the slingshot.
What they have in common is that although they are concious that their actions can kill them they are determined to do them. In the first excerpt hunting in the woods is forbidden and if someone gets caught doing it he would be "even killed". The kid has no option but to risk his life to get some food: "but my family had to eat one way or another."
The second excerpt refers to a pirate's slave, he has a miserable life and it could get worse. He is determined to scape or die trying, we can see that he has nothing else to loose, "I would rather die than spend another minute on that ship."
