D. lower U.S. interest rate levels
Answer:
A, raise British interest rate levels
Explanation:
Increasing the interest rate levels of the British will help strengthen the pound against the Dollar. This would mean that the United States is offering lower interest rate.
This is possible because a higher interest rate means that lenders will make higher returns compared to countries with lower interest rates.

Answer:
Punishment.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Blake racked up three safety violations in one month and was taken off the construction crew and put in the office, meaning he was no longer eligible for overtime. He pled with his boss, saying he needed the money for rent. Citing that Blake's financial situation was not a concern of the company, he was put in the office until he could demonstrate that safety was a priority. This illustrates punishment.
Punishment can be defined as an act of imposing a penalty or consequences on an individual or group of people for flouting rules, guidelines or instructions and any other wrongdoing.
<em>Generally, punishments are used as a moral tool to discourage wrongdoing or unacceptable behaviors being exhibited by people and to serve as a deterrent to others. </em>
