"To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge: to convert our good words into good deeds, in a new all

iance for progress; to assist free men and free governments in casting off the chains of poverty. (But this peaceful revolution of hope cannot become the prey of hostile powers.)

The sentence that best explains Kennedy's tone before the shift is A. He is offering help to friendly and democratic nations in our part of the world. His tone is promising.

Before the shift in tone, Kennedy used phrases such as "offer a pledge", "alliance for progress", "assist free men" and "cast off the chains of poverty". The firs three phrases are related to offering help, while the last one implies hope that the other countries' future will be bright and free of poverty.

What is the BEST way to combine the information in the two sentences below?
natulia [17]

The answer is A. Mercedes threw Andrea, Mercedes' best friend, a surprise party last night.  This choice uses an appositive ("Andrea, Mercedes' best friend,") to combine the two sentences.  An appositive is a phrase separated from the rest of the sentence by commas that describes something (in this case Andrea).


Choices B and C are incorrect because the uses of the words "but" and "when" to combine the sentences do not make logical sense.  Choice D is incorrect because it uses a comma to combine the sentences without a conjunction, creating a run-on sentence.


Hope this helps!
