Answer:
C. There is a sense of helplessness in dealing with the surrounding violence.
Explanation:
A. does not work because the author has made it clear that regardless of the precautions taken, abductions still occur.
B. The violence in Iraq is not being compared to that of neighboring countries. It is just Iraq's violence that is being focused on in the passage.
C. As with A, the author has made it clear that you can become abducted without a driver, with a driver, without bodyguards, and with bodyguards, so there is not much you can do but hope you are left alone, which is a feeling of helplessness. It can happen no matter what you do.
D. This is incorrect because it said in the passage that even with bodyguards you can be abducted.
A miller’s daughter dies in her bed, weakened from lack of food.
Another “poor, hunger-starved beggar boy” is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies.
A four-year-old local boy dies “for want of food and means,” as does his mother.
You hear the story of a man leaving his home and walking hundreds of miles in search of work or food and returning after a couple of months with sufficient money only to find that his wife and children have all since died.
These four are clear explicit examples of starvation during Elizabethian times, since England faced hard times during Elizabethian times, since the population grew larger by a third, and the resources stayed the same, they had to divide the same products between more people.
