Answer:
'The mercenaries fought for as long as they were paid, not just the 40 days a year that knights fought.'
Explanation:
This supports the statement that hired soldiers would fight for longer than knights would. They had motivation which was currency in exchange for their participation in battle/war. The knights on the other hand were only required a certain amount of days. It was not stated whether they were paid or not, but I can assume that they were not which would make one--specifically--a knight reluctant to go to battle. Therefore, hired soldiers did the work the knights were reluctant to do.

Explanation:
Amy Tan (author of the Joy Luck Club) has written an absolutely terrific piece on what a well educated daughter (Tan) thinks of her mother's "spirited" English. It is an essay that is a masterpiece of its kind.
She explains in detail why her mother's English and how it is written doesn't matter. Her mother has other qualities that her language emphasizes. What matters is how well her mother is able to express herself ignoring all the usual rules of syntax.
From Tan's description, I have to say that C is the best answer.
If the lady speaks only Chinese, the meaning of the phrase means absolutely nothing. It is just sounds. D is wrong.
B is possible, but it would not be true for every idiomatic phrase. So I wouldn't pick B.
A has the same problem as D. I would stick with C
When you are using a source in your paper, you can use a direct quote when you want to report the exact thing that the author said. In this case, the sentence must be put inside a quotation mark to show that you are quoting the author directly. When writing a paper that uses sources, you are expected to paraphrase the content, direct quote should only be used when it becomes absolutely necessary and the source must be acknowledged. This is very important in order to avoid plagiarism in your work. <span />
