Answer: We are not initially responsible for the capture of slaves taken as a result of war.
The first statement disputes the claim because it argues that captives from wars might still be taken in an unjust way. The third statement similarly disputes the claim by arguing that not all captives are victims of combat, but some were kidnapped despite their peaceful existence. Finally, the last statement argues that even if captives were taken lawfully in those wars, it would still be a great kindness to help them.
The second statement, on the other hand, supports the claim. It argues that the capture of slaves is not our responsibility, as they have been lawfully taken during war.
Answer:
B). Sentence 2
Explanation:
As per the question, sentence 2 most aptly involves the use of imagery. It involves <u>vivid descriptions of the sky by using similes(in 'hung like swath' and in like a 'black velvet') which appeal to the readers' senses and help them in visualizing the exact scenario and eliciting the desired feelings effectively</u>. The <u>adjectives like 'blue and black' function like icing on the cake in order to allow the readers to imagine the exact situation of the sky more realistically</u>. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
