Answer:

The works of this famous writer pays homage to the brave soldiers that were killed in the war.

Explanation:

"Homage" is an old English and also French word that means to show respect and gratitude for the efforts of someone, especially after the demise of that person. While the correct spelling of homage in French is 'hommage', the use of single 'm' in homage is more frequent and also accepted by most people. paying homage to a person is a means of showing respect and reverence to the person for whatever good deeds he/she must have done during her lifetime (if the person is already deceased) or even if s/he is still alive, it is to show respect and gratitude fro the efforts s/he had given for his/her fellow men.

PART A: Which statement best expresses the central idea of the text?

MAVERICK [17]

I’m not entirely sure because there was no text to read in order for me to find an exact answer. However, if I had to guess based on the subject and the quality of the sentences written I would go with B or D, in that order.

The other two (A, C) are suggesting that altruism is not ever really done out of sheer empathy (they take a negative, or pessimistic point of view. Some might even call it realistic), and that anything done “for the good of others” always has an ulterior motive; be it power, likability, future wealth, or something that would benefit they and theirs in the soon to bear future). Essentially, no one does ANYTHING out of sheer good will and kindness. Thus, why not do things anonymously without flaunting their name about? Why? Because by telling everyone so-and-so donated X amount of dollars to said people or organizations, now it is KNOWN how generous they are, which immediately makes them likable or popular.

However, without having read the text, I believe, whether people believe it or not - there is still an element of “pure altruism” given in some folks. SOME people are able to not care for anything of themselves, but only to the cause which they are giving. I also believe whole- heartedly, whether it’s true or not , selflessness to some capacity is essential to human survival, and humans HAVE empathy built into our core being, so it is entirely possible. That, of course, is just an educated (hopeful) guess.
