The poem "That Old Straw Sojourner" by David Matherne describes the experiences of a man by relating those experiences to the hat the man wears, this beings by explaining the man lost a child "It’d seen a child die—Depression--a war"; however after this, the man and his wife have a another boy "the midwife had announced, ‘You’ve a boy"; additionally, this boy grew and worked in the farm just as his family "So the family worked the farm Until the boy took arm-in-arm" after this, the met a woman who liked both shoes and hats "A girl from town with mighty charm Who had a fancy for shoes and hats" and finally as the father grew old the son inherited everything including the old hat. Thus, the option that best states the information in this poem is D as it explains most of the stages in the life of the man who wore the hat and his son.

The Catholic Church in the Philippines (Filipino: Simbahang Katolika sa Pilipinas; Spanish: Iglesia Católica en las Filipinas) is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual direction of the Pope. The Philippines is one of the two nations in Asia having a substantial portion of the population professing the Catholic faith, along with East Timor, and has the third largest Catholic population in the world after Brazil and Mexico.[1] The episcopal conference responsible in governing the faith is the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines.
Christianity was first brought to the Philippine islands by Spanish missionaries and settlers, who arrived in waves beginning in the early 16th century in Cebu. Compared to the Spanish Era, when Christianity was recognized as the state religion, the faith today is practiced in the context of a secular state. In 2015, it was estimated that 84 million Filipinos, or roughly 82.9% to 85% of the population, profess the Catholic faith

How does changing sentence structure from long to short and choppy help build suspense
ycow [4]
Well, if you think about it, if your sentences are super short, you get right to the point and we don't know any of the important details. 
Example: The dog died. (short and choppy)
Verses: The suffering K-9 limped along the alley, energy slowly dripping away. He walked in the rain, not noticing the puddles he was trodding through. At length, he reached his almost flooded dog house, where he laid down. His he fell asleep never to wake again, finally at peace.
Make sense? Hope this helped! Sorry for the depressing example ;)
