Facing impeachment, he resigned

B) Facing impeachment, he resigned from office.

After the Watergate Scandal (June 1972), in which President Nixon was involved, many investigations were carried out so he could be brought to justice. However, two years later, the President decided to resign from office to avoid impeachment. And no sooner had Ford taken office, than he used his newly acquired power to pardon Nixon for any crimes he may have committed. As expected, his decision was harshly criticized and angered many Americans that wanted justice.

When Nixon says " I'm innocent. You've got to believe me (...) If you don't, take my job." he means that if it can not be proven that he was not involved in the scandal, then he'd resign so somebody else would take the Presidency.

lana [24]

Answer: B, the negative connotations of the words “dust,” “aching,” and “weary” give the excerpt a tone of tiredness.

Explanation:

In the excerpt, we learn that the mole has been working hard, and that he worked all morning. Spring-cleaning usually implies a deep cleaning, like replacing the carpet or cleaning your oven. However, when someone typically does some spring-cleaning, they end up tired. We can prove this by using the words “aching” and “weary,” as they describe being tired.

Answer:

None of these choices are correct.

Explanation:

The main difference between MacArthur's and Truman's strategies in Korea was that: "MacArthur wanted to push beyond the 38th parallel, while Truman did not want to risk a conflict with China or the Soviet Union."

During the Korean War, Douglas MacArthur led the American-led coalition of United Nations troops. In their fight against North Korean troops, MacArthur seeks permission to bomb communist China and subsequently use Nationalist Chinese forces from Taiwan against China, however, President Truman refused.

Hence, in this case, and considering the available options, the right answer is "None of these choices are correct."
