D.The poor suffer the most in war.
The main theme from this excerpt is that the poor suffer the
most in war. This can be determined by
how within the excerpt it is mentioned that it is “the humble, those who pay
the most because they are poor” are “killed in masses” and are cannon fodder
because “they are so many.” It is further
stated that the poor are feeble and offer the least resistance in wars because
of an ignorance about the situation that led their respective nations to war.
The answer is “Our team played really badly.”
Using “real” in place of adverbs such as “very” or “really” is not grammatically correct. Just stick with “really”.

Answer:
Renaissance humanism is the revival/ re-interest of the ancient arts and preferring human qualities rather than the divine ones. Secularism is also almost the same as it also laid more importance on the state rather than the religious aspect of human society.
Explanation:
Renaissance is the 'rebirth' or revival of the classics, first in Italy and then spread to the other parts of Europe. Humanism is the approach or outlook of thoughts that gives importance to the humanistic values/ elements rather than the divine beings. It is basically the preference of humans over divine elements, with human qualities having more importance than the supernatural ones. The rediscovery of the studying of the ideas and arts of the past civilizations occur in this movement, with a newfound interest in the ancients. Renaissance humanism dominated the Renaissance era with its preference of ancient texts over the contemporary philosophy and arts.
Secularism, on the other hand, fully separates the state and the religious aspects of the society or human community. There is no connection whatsoever in the two. The participation of religion is allowed but not in a dominating way. It ensures that there is no extreme power of religion or act of religious beliefs over the affairs of the state.
Thus, it can then be concluded that the Renaissance humanism and secularism have a sort of some similarity in their division/ preference of human qualities rather than the divine/ religious ones.
Answer:
A "The spring of 1998 was the Halley’s Comet of desert wildflower years." (lines 1–2)
Explanation:
This is the excerpt from Barbara Kingsolver's scientific essey "Called Out". It describes events in the spring of 1998 and gives insight on magnificent and complex life cycle of desert plants.
The given sentence provides description of the highway medians suggesting that there were unusually many flowers, rarely seen before.
That provides evidence to answer A. which claims that that spring was the Halley's Comet of desert wildflower years. Halley's Comet is a rare phenomenon that happens only once every 76 years, so by making this comparison, the author claims that what happened that spring was a true botanical rarity.
Idk can u provide more info unless it’s a joke ...
