A, barely acknowledges their existence
Answer:
Explanation:
The Declaration of Independence is perhaps the most masterfully written state paper of Western civilization. As Moses Coit Tyler noted almost a century ago, no assessment of it can be complete without taking into account its extraordinary merits as a work of political prose style. Although many scholars have recognized those merits, there are surprisingly few sustained studies of the stylistic artistry of the Declaration.1 This essay seeks to illuminate that artistry by probing the discourse microscopically--at the level of the sentence, phrase, word, and syllable. By approaching the Declaration in this way, we can shed light both on its literary qualities and on its rhetorical power as a work designed to convince a "candid world" that the American colonies were justified in seeking to establish themselves as an independent nation.2
The text of the Declaration can be divided into five sections--the introduction, the preamble, the indictment of George III, the denunciation of the British people, and the conclusion. Because space does not permit us to explicate each section in full detail, we shall select features from each that illustrate the stylistic artistry of the Declaration as a whole.3
The introduction consists of the first paragraph--a single, lengthy, periodic sentence:
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.4

Answer:
- <u>Peak</u> is the word that best accomplishes the sentence.
- '<u>Climbing for hours</u>' is the context clue that supports the above answer.
Explanation:
In the given sentence, the most appropriate word to complete the sentence would be 'peak' as it appropriately goes with the context. The word 'peak' <u>implies 'end or top of anything' which is contextually relevant</u> to the meaning of the sentence implying that 'the hikers finally reached the top(of the mountain) after hours of arduous efforts in climbing it<u>'</u>. Thus, the other two words become insignificant(contextually).
<u>Context clues are described as the hints or clues that are provided by the author in order to assist the readers to determine the meaning of an unusual word</u>. These clues usually involve synonyms, antonyms, explanation, etc. Thus, the phrase 'climbing for hours' functions as the explanatory context clue that defines the hikers approach to reach at the top i.e. 'peak'.
Answer:
Despite the fact that he was both excited and terrified to leave with his uncle in the wagon, Ned was overjoyed to be leaving the tribe. His parents will be proud because they know he has the capability to understand and utilize the white ways, and that will allow him to speak to them and aid them in their daily lives.
<em><u>Quote:</u></em>
<em><u>"I turned to look up at my uncle's kind face. […] I was frightened by the thought of being away from home for the first time in my life, but I was also trying to find courage. My uncle seemed to know that.

"Little Boy," he said, "Sister's first son, listen to me. You are not going to school for yourself. You are doing this for your family. To learn the ways of the bilagáanaa, the white people is a good thing. Our Navajo language is sacred and beautiful. Yet all the laws of the United States, those laws that we now have to live by, are in English."</u></em>
