The answer is C: pleasant.

The word affable, in the context of the passage above, means pleasant, agreeable, enjoyable, nice, so that in this sense, the shepherd named Jiang is a person who is all of the above which fits in nicely with how he formed a bond with the poor villagers and how they came out to listen to his music. Affable would be the contrary of obnoxious or insufferable.

The flight was cancelled due to a _______________ thunderstorm.
yulyashka [42]

The flight was cancelled due to a severe thunderstorm.

Personally, I would write the word severe because if your flight was delayed by a thunderstorm then it has to be a <u>severe</u> storm if it's that bad.

._. sorry for the "lack of grammar" but I hope this helps

How did the U.S. quest for overseas territories in the late 1800s lead to America’s involvement in international conflict?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

   The late nineteenth century was known as the “Age of Imperialism,” a time when the United States and other major world powers rapidly expanded their territorial possessions.

   American imperialism is partly based on American exceptionalism, the idea that the United States is different from other countries because of its specific world mission to spread liberty and democracy.

   One of the most notable instances of American imperialism was the annexation of Hawaii in 1898, which allowed the United States to gain possession and control of all ports, buildings, harbors, military equipment, and public property that had belonged to the Government of the Hawaiian Islands.

   Some groups, such as the American Anti-Imperialist League, opposed imperialism on the grounds that it conflicted with the American ideal of Republicans and the “consent of the governed.

   Social Darwinism: An ideology that seeks to apply biological concepts of Darwinism or evolutionary theory to sociology and politics, often under the assumption that conflict between societal groups leads to social progress, as superior groups surpass inferior ones.

   American Exceptionalism: A belief, central to American political culture since the Revolution, that Americans have a unique mission among nations to spread freedom and democracy.

   The American Anti-Imperialist League: An organization established in the United States on June 15, 1898, to battle the American annexation of the Philippines as an insular area.

   American Imperialism: A term that refers to the economic, military, and cultural influence of the United States on other countries.

Can you use child bearer in a sentsnce
stellarik [79]

Child bearer is another term for a mother. Like "birth giver" "mother" ect.

Yes, you can use it in a sentence.

"She is adopted but the kind woman in the red dress is the child bearer."

"Susan is a child bearer of the sweet little girl."

I have no idea if these are even good examples, but it is a strange phrase anyways, I hope I helped.
