Answer:
A.
Explanation:
The Things They Carried is a book written by Tim O'Brien, on war. The book is based mostly on his experience as a soldier.
In chapter titled 'On the Rainy River,' O'Brien shares that one day when he was filled with fear, he wrote a letter to his family and left for Canada. While on his way to Canada, he stayed with Elroy Berdahl in the Tip Top Lodge.
So, on his last day at lodge, O'Brien and Elroy went for fishing and reached near Canada on boat. But O'Brien makes a decision to go to war and he sees an audience cheering him as he returns.
The reason for listing these people is because they were the people whom he let down.
Therefore, option A is correct.
Answer:
Adverb
Explanation:
Adverbs often act like adjectives and they often come before a verb, so for example, this sentence: She <u>beautifully</u> walked down the aisle. Beautifully is the adverb.
Glad I could help! :D
The a long question wow I don’t know
1- <span>The ancient Chinese board game “Go” is invented long before there was any writing to record its rules. A game from the impossibly distant past has now brought us closer to a moment that once seemed part of an impossibly distant future: a time when machines are cleverer than we are.
<u>Because it's an action that started and finished in the past, this should read </u><u>was</u><u> (Simple Past)</u>
2- </span><span>For years, Go was considered the last redoubt against the march of computers. Machines might win at chess, draughts, Othello, three-dimensional noughts and crosses, Monopoly, bridge, and poker. Go, though, is different.
<u>This continues the same line of mistake as the first paragraph. Because it's referencing something that already happened ("Go was considered...), this should read </u><u>was</u><u> (Simple Past).</u>
The game required intuition, strategising <u>and</u> character reading, along with vast numbers of moves and permutations. According to legend, it was invented by a Chinese emperor to teach his subjects balance and patience: qualities unique to human intelligence.
<u>The conjunction and is used before the last element in a list. In this case, this word should be substituted by a comma because <em>character reading</em> is not the last element on that list.</u>
3- </span><span>This week, though, a computer called Alpha Go <u>defeats</u> the world’s best player of Go. It did so by “ learning” the game, crunching through 30 million positions from recorded matches, reacting and anticipating. It <u>evolves</u> as a player and taught itself.
That single game of Go marks a milestone on the road to the “technological singularity”, the moment when artificial intelligence becomes capable of self-improvement and learns faster than humans can control or understand.</span><span>
<u>These should read defeated ... evolved. This continues the same line of thought on subject-verb agreement. If it's talking about a past event, and the rest of the paragraph sustains that idea, then these verbs should be in Simple Past.</u></span><span>
