Answer:

D. heavy lifting done by teams of men.

Explanation:

George Milton and Lennie Small are characters in <em>"Of Mice and Men</em>" novel written by <em>John Ernst Steinback Jr</em>. George and Lennie are ranch workers who often move from one place to another during the Great Depression. Their migration was caused by the fact that they wanted to find several job opportunities in order to alleviate their situations. They also wanted to purchase their own land and settle down.

"To buck barley" in the statement above means "heavy lifting done by teams of men." In the story, George and Lennie would buck barley by<u> throwing large bags of grain on a truck.</u> Thus, they lifted the heavy bags of grains together in order to finish their task.

Thus, this explains the answer.

sergij07 [2.7K]

1. "Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area." - Here Roosevelt uses the word "surprise offensive" wich emphasizes the innocence of the United States. Thay hadn't done anything to Japan, and were attacked by surprise. And by using the word "undertaken" which states that the japanese took the initiative.

2. "Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us." Here Roosevelt makes sure people don´t forget that this attack was unjustified and very violent. By saying "against us" he wants people to feel angry and to do something against the attackers.

3. "I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastarly attack by Japan on Sunday, December Seventh, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire." By using "unprovoked" he says again that the United States are not guilty from anything but victims of a treachery. At the same time he uses "dastarly" making the japanese responsable from the attack, making them guilty and without any justification.
