Answer:

Explanation:

Even if we don't know the meaning of the word mercenaries, we have a context clue in the form of a synonym/restatement, which is "hired professional soldiers," i.e., the very definition of what a mercenary is. The fact that the noun phrase "hired professional soldiers" follows "mercenaries" after a comma and is in plural form too helps find this context clue.

Read the paragraph and plz tell me either A B C D

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

I think it is C

Explanation: I know when something lives up to the hype, the hype is the thing that gets it started and popular, and people want to try it, but if it doesnt live up to the hype, there was lies about how good the product was. So to me the only option that makes sense woulda have to be C. there is little truth in the claims. Please tell me if Im wrong, so I can correct it if I have to :)
