Answer:

B). The Nazi killing of Jews.

Explanation:

As per the given quote from Haidar Abd El-Shafi's 'Palestinian Delegation to the Madrid Peace Conference, 1991, the speaker attributed the ignoring of his people's suffering to 'the Nazi killing the Jews'.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The statement that best describes the excerpt is:

3- Most of the sentences have a similar structure.

Explanation:

The first two sentences may seem longer, having more elements. But from the third sentence on, what we have are simple clauses, independent sentences. The structure is so similar that Paine was able to omit the verb "to be" from the fourth sentence on, since it had been mentioned in the previous sentence, and the other are somehow a continuation of that same idea. Therefore, we can safely say that most of the sentences have a similar structure.
