I believe the answer is: A. "I am sorry," he said, and patted me on the shoulder with his good hand. "I would not be rude. My wife has just died. You must forgive me."

The word resign indicates accepting some sort of feeling or situation that cannot be ignored or pushed aside. From the sentences in option A, we can infer that the reader already accept the fact that his wife has died and acknowledge that his emotion is influenced by it.

Lines 307-334: how do the proposals king lists effect his persuasiveness?
Gemiola [76]

Hello. You did not inform the speech to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

If King was trying to be persuasive, lines 307 - 334 can only affect persuasiveness by reinforcing the argument King is making. This can be done through a clear and objective diction that reinforces the importance of King's words. In addition, these lines can create a logical, ethical or emotional structure for the speeches, proposing a greater connection between king and the public.

Select the word and phrase from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the sentence.
kotykmax [81]

1. anxious confusion

2. that shared in the general awe and terror

When looking at the options with the context clues, we can eliminate any definitions that have a positive connotation. None of the context clues indicate that consternation would be something that is good. While the first option shows a negative connotation for consternation it is not specific enough to pinpoint a meaning for the word. The context clue "general awe and terror" indicates that there is confusion.

Answer:

Bullion is money, specifically gold or silver that has been freshly mined but not cleaned and made into money.

Clues to the meaning include the fact that the kids need "3 dollars", the speaker doesn't know how they wanted all that "money" at one time, and they had to "raise" it, as in "raising money". When he says, "I hadn't any idea where to turn to raise all that bullion..." he means the 3 dollars.
