Answer:

Though he wants to promote his religious beliefs, he is willing to make some sacrifices.

Explanation:

In ''The Man to Send Rain Clouds'', we follow a real life events of people of Laguna Pueblo Native Americans in New Mexico Indian Reservation. Ken and Leon's grandpa Teofilo died in peace under a cottonwood tree while herding sheep. They want to bury him in Laguna Tribe's tradition which includes speacial way of clothing, burying before the sun sets and so on. Louise, Leon`s wife, suggests that Father Paul should sprinkle the holy water as a part of burial in order to provide water for Teofilo in afterlife if he gets thirsty. At first Leon doesn't accept this, as holy water represents part of Christian tradition, but then it occurs to him that would encourage Teofilo to send them rainy clouds which would end the dry period and help with the agriculture. So he pays a visit to Father Paul and asks him to attend burial and sprinkle the holy water. Father Paul rejects the invitation at first, but after a little consideration of all the factors such as respecting the tradition of Laguna Tribe and their will to keep it, also his wish to be well accepted from the people of the tribe, as he is aware that if he wants to spread Christianity in a decent way in which people would change their beliefs and religion because they really want to and not because someone force them to do it, he decides to go and play his part at Teofilo's burial.

Veronika [31]
Out of your 3 possible answers, B. ones' is the correct one and I will explain why. Answer A is a contraction of one and is. When you put "one is" into the blank space you can tell that it is not right. Answer C is incorrect because when you place an apostrophe after an s it is implied that there should be another s that follows and so you do not need to put it there. This means that answer B is correct since it doesn't have the extra s.
