Answer:

Vile and disreputable.

Explanation:

The words 'vile' and 'disreputable' are the two synonyms for the word 'sordid'. No, it is not appropriate to describe large groups of people because it is condescending and insulting to describe large groups of people with such words.

For example, if someone says that the Asian community living downtown are sordid people, it means that they are vile and nasty. That is not an appropriate word to address a group of people. It is completely wrong.

<em>The focus on theme and thesis is more prominently emphasized than it was in her original letter.  (C)</em>

The short story is regarded as the best narrative because it is well structured with a well explained thesis that lays more emphasis on the main points of the story. The reader is able to understand the characters and theme portrayed together with the evidence and thesis. It also creates empathy to give the reader a view of the difficulties that come with war for both soldiers and people in support of the affected families by understanding their struggle.
