Answer:

The best answer is indeed letter D. Many American men were drafted during World War II, and many other men volunteered to serve.

Explanation:

When combining independent sentences, we must take a few things into consideration. Proper punctuation and conjunction must be chosen. Also, parallelism - the repetition of a certain grammatical form -  is important  for the sentence to sound more fluid.

The first two options present problems with parallelism since the two main verbs are used in different ways - were drafted X volunteering. The third option corrects that problem since volunteering becomes volunteered - now there is parallelism since both clauses are in the simple past. But the conjunction "or" conveys an idea that one of two possibilities can be realized. The best conjunction in this case would be "and", since it conveys a sense of addition - both things happened, men were drafted, and men volunteered. Therefore, the best option is  letter D. Many American men were drafted during World War II, and many other men volunteered to serve.

Why anansi and kling kling are no longer friends ?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Because they argued.

Explanation:

At the beginning of the text we learned that Anansi and kling kling argued and after that, they stopped being friends. This caused Anansi to create several traps to catch Kling Kling, who always noticed them because he was very smart.

Although we do not know the reason for the argument between them, we know that it was a serious discussion, because it hindered their friendship in a very strong way.
