Answer:

Detract.

Explanation:

<em>Here, the speaker is suggestive of a way to </em><u><em>detract </em></u><em>this hallowed place where people have come to fight and die for their freedom. The speaker hereby is willing to take away the horror(caused by deaths) of this place as he feels that this sacrifice should not be taken lightly or to be forgotten. </em>Thus, he has a desire to convert this hauntedness into peace and serenity and hence, suggesting an alternative way to counter this.

Ymorist [56]
Since <em>distant:intimate </em>are words that have opposite meanings, you need to find another pair of words with the same quality.
The correct answer is morose:joyous, because those two words mean different things.

Do you think the social contract is fair why or why not
velikii [3]

Answer:

Personal opinion.

Explanation:

It depends. If you feel by giving up some of your freedom for protectin and promises from the government, you would see it is fair. It is an even exchange between the people and the government.

You could also argue the government does not hold up their end of the contract, making it unfair. You would need examples to back up.

Personally, I think it is fair, as long as both sides hold up their end of the contract.
