The correct answer is option letter B (to promote happiness and peace during the Christmas season). After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the <em>British Prime Minister Winston Churchill</em> flew to Washington, D.C. in order to meet <em>President Franklin Roosevelt</em> and discuss how the two countries (Britain and the United States) could coordinate strategy in the wake of Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor. Since he was away from Britain, Churchill broadcast to the world from the White House and the purpose of his speech was <u>to dedicate the night and holiday to children</u>. Churchill wanted the people to celebrate the night without the cares of war, especially the children (“<em>Let the children have their night of fun and laughter</em>”). The rest of the options are incorrect because they are a misunderstanding of the text (A, C), or an action that has already happened, that is, the union of Britain and the United States (D).
The answer should be 'D' but it can depend based on teachers, if your teacher has talked often about general reference sites then they might want 'A'.
I don't see a word in bold type.
Answer:
Verb.
Explanation:
In the given sentence, the italicized word is "wound" which can be taken in two ways. One is a noun that refers to a physical injury while the second is a verb that means to inflict pain or hurt to a person.
But in the sentence, the word is used to refer to the act of tying in a spiral pattern. This act of tying is an action verb, thereby making it a verb. The word "wound" as used in the sentence is the past tense form of the verb "wind".
So, the correct answer is a verb.
