The correct answer here is A.

The word "gross" in this line from Frederick Douglas's famous speech named
<span>“What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” </span>means flagrant or extreme. This term is often used with the word "injustice" and it means unacceptable and obvious which is definition for flagrant as well.

Correct the following paragraph so that it uses the right words and includes appropriate apostrophes.
8_murik_8 [283]
Open and closed apostrophes from tomorrow to the exclamation point. if you can replace words I recommend changing "you're going to have to wear sunblock" to "It is recommended to wear sunblock." Also, probably remove the comma after tomorrow.
