A) Exploring the poet's background
This question is about Ronald Reagan's speech, entitled "A Time for Choosing".
Answer:
As you did not provide the lines to which this question refers, my answer may be a little inaccurate, because the numbering of lines I have from this course may be different from the numbering of lines to which your question refers.
However, the premise in the paragraph that begins on line 39 according to my text is that the loss of freedom is not beneficial to anyone and that it causes pain and suffering to anyone.
Explanation:
On line 39 Reagan talks about the experience that a friend of his, a Cuban refugee, had to face because of the country's lack of freedom. he had to flee from Cuba, even though he was a successful businessman. Some people reported that he was lucky to be able to leave the country and he even agrees, because he had this option, although many of his fellow citizens do not.
Reagan uses this story to show how the lack of freedom is harmful to anyone, regardless of their social position or their ability to escape. The lack of freedom is harmful for that reason, it cannot be allowed in America.

Explanation:
Those four correct answers from your question are considering one of the rules on how to read properly when it comes to punctuation in the sentences. <u>When reading, readers must pay attention to those punctations and often those are comma, a period, question mark and exclamation point. </u>
They are used to make the sentence more understandable and to reach the point of the idea of the sentence.
- The answers that are not correct are ''reading quickly without pausing at commas'' which is incorrect because it will confuse the readers. Where there is a semicolon there should not be a complete halt as it is when it comes to a period at the end of the sentence.
