The answer is: [D]: cause to become taken.
________________________________________
Explanation: Given: "the suffix -ate means 'cause to become' ; 
 the remaining "root" of the word: "captivate"— is: "captiv-" ;
           which is similar to: "captive".
___________________________
Since all answer choices given begin with: "cause to become"; it makes sense that "cause to become taken"—which is "Answer choice [D]"; is the most appropriate—and thus the correct—answer.
"captive".

Which is the most precise and concise way to rewrite the following sentence from "A Fable" by Mark Twain?
svlad2 [7]

<span>A.) The subject was dropped, but it was clear that it would be brought up again.</span>

<span>
</span>

The first sentence is the most exact and the most precise because of how the idea is communicated in least amount of words possible.  It is important to keep in mind that when you are writing something that comprehension always goes down the more words there are in a sentence.  Thus, it is always best to communicate with the fewest words possible.  Let’s take a look at another example.  Say you are at a baseball game and a fly ball is coming directly toward you without your knowledge, and the person sitting next to you tries to warn you by saying the following:  “Because of the velocity of a baseball coming in your direction and the potential damage it may cause if it comes into contact with your head because you are not wearing a helmet and because ambulance rides as well as emergency room visits are not fun nor cheap, you should probably seek to get out of the way as soon as possible.”  How would that work?  Now, compare that to the more exact/precise sentence of “Duck!”  See how that works?

(I took this from ahsan57900)

1. The governments and economies of foreign nations greatly influenced the United States of America because the products produced by foreign nations compete with the American products in the market. This competition causes negative effects on the economy of United States when more products of foreign countries are sold as compared to American products due to lower prices of foreign nations products.

2. Big challenges are created by nontraditional economies, natural disasters, and emerging democracies on the United States government because these factors lowers the production and sale of American products in the market that affected the economy.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

John Steinbeck.

Explanation:

John Ernst Steinbeck Jr, an American writer famous for his works on the lives of the people living during and around the Dust Bowl, said in his Nobel acceptance speech in 1962 that

"<em>The ancient commission of the writer has not changed. He is charged with exposing our many grievous faults and failures, with dredging up to the light our dark and dangerous dreams for the purpose of improvement</em>."

His speech was a form of relaying a message that writers like him had to do in order to make known to people the various but harsh realities of life. His take on the migrant farmers' lives during the Dust Bowl in "The Grapes of Wrath" gave him a huge credit for revealing the truth and the lives led by these farmers.
