I believe that the author most likely included this paragraph to explain some of the reasons for downplaying the seriousness of the situation. This is apparent because the paragraph talks about how people would react if they found out about the situation which is why it was important to keep the truth about this operation from the news.


I hope this helps, Regards.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

1. She swam the English Channel several times in the past year, and felt extremely accomplished afterwards.

2. My brother and I need to buy shirts, pants, socks, and shoes for school. So we really hope our parents have enough money.

3. The dogs' tails wagged as father gave them John's leftovers. John looked at them in anger.

Explanation:

The question we are answering here demands a thorough knowledge of English since it includes several different types of grammatical mistakes. Let's explain them:

1. Proper nouns, such as names of rivers, oceans, countries, and people, should be capitalized: "John", "English Channel".

2. We should use commas to separate the items in a list: "shirts, pants, socks, and shoes."

3. Irregular verbs have their own past form: swim - swam ("swimmed" does not exist)

4. We should try to maintain the same verb tense when the passage talks of actions that happened in the same period of time: need / hope; wagged / looked

5. Some words sound the same but are spelled differently. That is the case with "passed", which is a verb, and "past" which can be a noun or an adjective.  That is also the case with "bye" and "buy". We must select the correct one to convey the proper meaning.

6. "Enuf" is a spelling that may be used in very informal conversation - texting with friends, for example. The correct spelling is "enough".

7. In number 2, there is a question mark where there is no question. It should be dropped and replaced with a period.
