Answer:

E) as it is now

Explanation:

The word “retire” has a principal meaning of leaving or stopping one’s job at a particular age, but it also has a secondary meaning of withdrawing a unit of currency from circulation. Used in the context of a country discontinuing the penny, the word “retire” has a neutral and objective connotation and is therefore the most appropriate choice for the sentence.

What is the main idea portrayed by the editorial you have just read
vlabodo [156]

The editorial to which this question refers is "Yes, Virginia! There is a Santa Claus; timeless message"

Answer:

The central idea of the text is the ability to elaborate an answer to a child's question that is true, but does not compromise the child's innocence.

Explanation:

The editorial shows how a man was able to associate the existence of the Santa Claus, with the existence of feelings and inanimate things that exist in a subjective way in our life, but not in a concrete way. This answer was given to a child who wanted to know if Santa was real.

In this way they can confirm that the central idea of the text is the ability to answer children's questions in an appropriate way, without lies, but with delicacy.
