Answer:

D. He

Explanation:

<em>The participle phrase is here modifying the subject "he". It assists in the amendment of the gerund phrase i.e. 'his laughing action" where the participle phrase("he shook his head and said") acts as an adjective to revamp or modify the previous idea.</em> As we know that adjectives always function as a transformer of a noun or pronoun and thus adds to meaning and description to the sentence which best illustrates the use of participle phrase here.<em> Thus, we could conclude that here the participle phrase modifies the pronoun "he".</em>

What do the words absolute Despotism mean as they are used in paragraph 2 in Passage #1, "The Declaration of Independence"?
LiRa [457]

<em>"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under </em><u><em>absolute Despotism</em></u><em>, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. "</em>

  • despotism denotes dictatorship, a tyranny, an absolute power

People should not put up with it, they have the responsibility to act and change something when it goes wrong, if people are being oppressed and under the tyranny of those in power, they shall stand up, if but for future generations' sake.
