I think that C, that is, "they found the charge and trouble very great, and they had little or no crop it is not doubted", is your answer.

Understatement represents something as smaller or less intense than it reallly is, it presents it as less important. In sentence C, the speaker refers to a problem as a minor inconvinience "(...)trouble very great". Generarlly, we all know, that troubles are far from great. "They had little or no crop it is not doubted", you could change the focus and say that you have "some crop" instead of referring to the crop as being little.

Sliva [168]
Blight means ruin and disaster. Words and phrases that indicate and support this meaning are: "the last bitter hour" (denoting death), "stern agony, and shroud, and pall" (also denoting death, but this time in an even more literal way), "breathless darkness", "make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart" (these phrases definitely imply a disaster that takes our breath away).

Which question best represents the theme Woolf analyzes in A Room of One's Own? A. Why couldn't women vote and get involved poli
CaHeK987 [17]
The correct answer is <span>B. Why are women important characters in literature but unimportant in history? 
Woolf is famous for her early feminist prose where she wrote about how women are underappreciated, which they definitely were at the time. She wondered how it was possible that all famous writers and poets wrote so much about women, and their importance, but when it came to actual, real life, they were often ignored and subjugated.

How does the narrator of history in the making develop the viewpoint that the Wright brothers make important advancements in tec
Murrr4er [49]

The narrator develops this point of view by showing that the Wright Brothers were pioneers in advancing technology.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The Wright Brothers created the first plane to achieve flight, after being catapulted, in America.
  • This achievement was created with a lot of effort, study, and dedication from the brothers.
  • This plane was a milestone in technological advancement worldwide and placed the brothers as pioneers of aviation, which placed them as one of the great names in technology.

This pioneering spirit and dedication to the creation of the plane was what the author of "History in the Making" used to create a point of view on the importance of the Wright Brothers in technology.
