The Civil War was America's bloodiest conflict. The unprecedented violence of battles such as Shiloh, Antietam, Stones River, and Gettysburg shocked citizens and international observers alike. Nearly as many men died in captivity during the Civil War as were killed in the whole of the Vietnam War. Hundreds of thousands died of disease. Roughly 2% of the population, an estimated 620,000 men, lost their lives in the line of duty. Taken as a percentage of today's population, the toll would have risen as high as 6 million souls.
Answer:
A word is missing in line 7.
The missing word is 'had'.
Explanation:
In the seventh line of page 184, the word, 'had', is missing. If this word is placed after the word, 'who', then the sentence will have a more complete meaning. Had is the past tense and past participle of the verb, 'have'. It is used together with the past participle taken to make a complete meaning.
Thus, the correct rendering of that sentence will be,
<em>On one of my rare visits to school, a teacher who had taken an interest in me...</em>
