Read a paragraph from an essay supporting Truman’s decision to use the atomic bomb against Japan during World War II. [1] Many p

eople have argued that nothing could justify the president’s use of the atomic bomb because it killed so many innocent civilians. [2] Truman himself refused to drop a third atomic bomb on Japan because he was horrified by the death and devastation it had caused. [3] However, he never regretted his decision to use it in the first place. [4] Using the bomb brought an immediate end to a war that might have gone on for months or even years longer. [5] It is impossible to put a number on how many more deaths the continuing war might have caused, but there are indications. [6] Millions had already died in the Pacific theater. [7] Whenever US troops invaded an island, they knew the fight was to the death. [8] In the battle for Okinawa alone, there had been almost 50,000 US casualties, while Japan had suffered some 90,000 military deaths and at least 100,000 civilian deaths. [9] With his decision, Truman put an end to the slaughter. Which of these sentences should be followed by a citation? sentence 2 sentence 4 sentence 5 sentence 9

Answer:

[5] It is impossible to put a number on how many more deaths the continuing war might have caused, but there are indications.

Explanation:

This sentence should be followed by a citation since it carries a different verb tense from  the rest. This sentence is in the simple present and it reflects somebody's opinion. Therefore, it may imply a first- person sentence. The rest of the excerpt is in third person , it talks about Truman 's decision to drop the atomic bomb , and the verb tense is in the past

Why do you think Hillenbrand describes what the airmen fear in such detail? What does it help the reader understand about Louie
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

It knowing the airmen's fears it enable us to identify on a basic or normal level.

With books that are good, the reader wants to recognize strongly with the characters.

Explanation:

With good books, the reader wants to strongly recognize with the characters, so good writers highlights certain traits they feel will resonate with others.

In Seabiscuit, Hillenbrand made  characters strong around the horse who were examples of  fears and universal hopes  common to most of us.

In the crucible of war, actions are heightened by the see-sawing emotions brought on by death and life experiences.

By understanding the airmen’s fears in greater depth makes us to identify on a very basic level. The airmen are of each on dissimilar but universal in their fears of death and what it means to themselves, their families and comrades.

3. Key Ideas and Details: How does the author connect his statement that America
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer and Explanation:

The author shows how American companies have a strong influence on the economy of Singapore, as in other countries and that because of this influence, the American government can impose that not only Singapore, but that all countries have better attitudes, otherwise these companies can be withdrawn from these countries, which would cause certain economic problems.

In other words, the author states that the USA cannot impose American values in foreign territories, but it can cause these values to be met using the influence it has economically in those territories, through the list of American companies that the foreign country has.
