Answer:

The tone used in the excerpt is serious and yet formal, appealing to the people about the seriousness of the issue.

Explanation:

Eleanor Roosevelt's speech in 1948 where she talked about the need for an Universal human rights document that will ensure everyone a safe right was one of the most important documents to be ever drafted. The widow of President Roosevelt, a fervent supporter of human rights herself, was the head of the drafting committee to bring about the document that brings to life the now Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

In her speech given in France, she stated that she chose to speak there for it is <em>"in this soil the roots of human freedom have long ago struck deep and here they have been richly nourished"</em>. She chose the place due to it's significance in regards with the fight that she is undertaking. She employs a serious and formal tone to address the people, thereby bringing on point the seriousness of the issue that they are dealing with and working for.

What is the summary of the Vietnam Wars the Chinese dragon
larisa86 [58]

The Sino-Vietnamese War (Vietnamese: Chiến tranh biên giới Việt-Trung; simplified Chinese: 中越战争; traditional Chinese:中越戰爭; pinyin: Zhōng-Yuè Zhànzhēng), also known as the Third Indochina War, was a brief border war fought between the People's Republic of China and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam in early 1979. China launched the offensive in response to Vietnam's invasion and occupation of Cambodia in 1978 (which ended the rule of the Chinese-backed Khmer Rouge).[17]Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger wrote that Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping saw this as a Soviet attempt "to extend its evil tentacles to Southeast Asia and...carry out expansion there", which reflected the long-standing Sino-Soviet split.[18] Kissinger also noted that "[w]hatever the shortcomings of its execution, the Chinese campaign reflected a serious, long-term strategic analysis".[19]

The Chinese entered northern Vietnam and captured some of the cities near the border. On March 6, 1979, China declared that the gate to Hanoi was open and that their punitive mission had been achieved. Chinese forces retreated back across the Vietnamese border into China. Both China and Vietnam claimed victory in the last of the Indochina Wars of the 20th century; as Vietnamese troops remained in Cambodia until 1989, it can be said that China failed to achieve the goal of dissuading Vietnam from involvement in Cambodia. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the Sino-Vietnamese border was finalized.

China demonstrated to its Cold War Communist adversary, the Soviet Union, that they were unable to protect their new Vietnamese ally.[20] Following worsening relations between the Soviet Union and China as a result of the Sino-Soviet split, as many as 1.5 million Chinese troops were stationed along the Soviet-Chinese border, in preparation for a full-scale war.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

B. There were not enough firefighters to do all the necessary tasks.

Explanation:

We can tell from the first sentence that there was not enough help. Even without knowing any background on the story, we know there was just a thin circle of engines around the fire. In order to deprive the fuel of fire, the firefighters asked spectators to help by chopping up fences and sidewalks. This way the fire fighters could focus on the engines.
