Which of the following definitions of the word gun BEST defines the term as used in the sentence from “Selection 2: No More Interference in Our Personal Lives”?
<h2>
‛‛</h2>
<em> After you reach the end of your pasture, you spot them running down an open stretch of road, and you gun the engine to catch them.</em>
<h2>
’’</h2>
any portable firearm
to shoot with a firearm
slang: a colloquialism for muscles
to cause an engine to increase speed quickly
The last option is the only one that makes the most sense for this scenario. To <em>gun </em>an engine means to quickly speed up or accelerate. The third option has to do with muscles, or biceps, so it is not correct. There is also no mention of a firearm in the example sentence provided, so none of the others would work.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need more help, or if you think my answer is incorrect. Brainliest would be MUCH appreciated. Have a great day!
Stay Brainy!

I believe that the best answer for this question is a counterargument. Whatever the writer is in support of is the argument. The opposite side would be whatever the opposing, or countering, argument is. For example, if someone is in support of free college, they would support their argument and perhaps include some information about the counterargument, which would be not supporting free college. Hope this helps.
First person view is the view point of the character writing or speaking directly about themselves. Third person view is the author or narrator telling the story. One advantage for First person would be that you can hear or read the thoughts the characters or having. A disadvantage in third person view is you can't know what the characters are thinking only their actions and what they say.
