To "insure" is typically used in a sense to protect someone in some way or to set in place a policy that will do so. I would go with to make certain. The other options do not make that much sense, as domestic tranquility is a very good and necessary thing.

Answer:

To make certain  

Explanation:

The verb "insure" is an alternative spelling of "ensure" which means to guarantee or to make sure or certain that something will happen. Besides, by only looking at the context, we can also infer that "insure" refers to "guarantee" or "to make certain", because to keep domestic tranquility is one of the goals that Americans have in order to "form a more perfect Union."

   Slang, when used as a noun, refers to nonstandard terms or nonstandard usage of standard terms. Slang provides different symbols from which communication messages can be constructed. Slang is more than a noun though. Slang is a process. This means slang is also a verb. We slang as well as speak slang. The process of slanging involves the creation and use of slang. In everyday life, slang reflects the experiences, beliefs, and values of its speakers. Every new generation and subculture has a different vocabulary of slang words. As we slowly come out of adolescence we fade away from the use of slang. Items that we frequently encounter or are important to us are often given slang symbols. There are many terms to say something is good or bad and to evaluate people positively or negatively. Today, slang is also descriptive and contains many symbols for food or eating, money, effective or ineffective performance, relationships, intoxication, and places.
<span>             Why do young adults speak slang? There is one simple reason. It's cool! Slang is cool in the sense of being in style. When we speak, we are communicating not only a message of what we are saying but also a message about who we believe we are, our identity. It is a type of performance and shows that the speaker is in tune with the times. A second reason for why slang is so cool is it lets us have a sense of being acceptable. People don't slang all of the time. Rather, the use of slang is reserved for circumstances that accept the use of slang. Usually, slang is used in informal environments and avoided in formal settings. This is because it could result in the person being judged negatively. </span>

Peru is known for _____. the Incas its love of baseball llamas Machu Picchu
yanalaym [24]
The safest answer is Macchu Picchu - it's very famous and it's located in Peru, so no other country is known for it.

But Macchu Picchu is built by the Incas - so it's a correct answer too!

The llama is also a characteristic animal for Peru- ut not exclusively of Peru. It's also present in Bolivia, Chile and Argentina

The only option that is not correct is "its love for baseball" - baseball is not speficically popular in Peru, and soccer is their prefer ed sport.
