<u>Answer</u>: These apply as goals of the United Nations:
- To promote human rights
- To solve international disputes
- To maintain international peace and security
- To solve economic, social, and humanitarian problems
The UN does not seek to take over aggressive nations in a military way, nor does it set up an international military tribunal. It will provide peacekeeping forces to regions of conflict.
The UN Charter, signed in 1945, lists the purposes of the organization in Chapter I, Article 1. Here's the official wording as found in the Charter:
<em>The Purposes of the United Nations are:</em>
- <em>To maintain international peace and security,</em><em> and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, </em><em>and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
</em>
- <em>To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples</em><em>, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;
</em>
- <em>To achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all</em><em> without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion; and
</em>
- <em>To be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends.</em><em> </em>
Answer: C. Battle of Marathon
Explanation:
The Battle of Marathon was fought in 490BC between Athens and Persia in what became known as the first invasion of the Greek mainland by the Persians and was led by Darius The Great.
Before the battle, the Athenians sent a message to request help from Sparta but the Spartans declined involvement due to their observance of a religious festival.
Regardless, Athens and her Allies inflicted a crushing defeat on the Persians that kept them out of Greece for over a decade before Xerxes the Great invaded their shores once more.
This therefore must be the battle that the text speaks of.

4.)"the second son of his father, al-Mahdi, an important political leader"
Explanation:
"Shines so bright in life" is an example of imagery, and imagery means a visually descriptive or figurative language, especially in a literary work. I know that you have already taken the test, but here it is anyway!
(I took it too!)
1. I am definitely sure that this response has most directly impacted citizens in the United States: heightened domestic security measures to defend against terrorism. Military actions against suspected terrorist compounds and foreign policy doesn't have the direct impact on the citizens because it can't grant them 100% security from terrorists in the place citizens live.
2. I think the most suitable answer is: <span>All terrorist groups have political goals that they try to achieve through violent means. According to its definition, terrorism is the use of violence against civilians to achieve particular political goals. There are many political organisation which have been involved in terrorism because of their political aims. It could nationalists, religious groups or revolutionaries.
3. The information in the sentence given above provides evidence for poverty. Poverty is the term which describes the state of those who lacks of money or other material goods. There are different reasons of poverty, like political, economic or social. This term is also could be described as inequality. This inequality occurred because of industrialization and corruption.
4. I am completely sure that Chernobyl accident</span> exposed people, crops, and animals to deadly radiation over a wide area. There was catastrophic nuclear accident caused by the explosion of the Reactor No. 4. National and international spread of radiation was four hundred times more than by the bombing of Hiroshima.
5. If my memory serves me well, correct answer to this question should be: It made efforts to draw attention to child slavery. This attention helped to decrease the number of organisations involved in child slavery.
6. As far as I remember the United Nations has taken part in the international response to developers who threaten the ways of life of indigenous peoples by establishing standards for development.
7. In my view deforestation is a threat to the environment because it causes erosion, which leads to flooding. Deforestation is very harmful to the environment because forests covers in about 30% the land area on our planed and produce oxygen and also it cause land erosion and affects on weather.
8. I think this statement about world poverty is an opinion rather than a fact: Poor nations should take steps to restrict their population growth to ease demands on limited resources. The word "should" leads me to the conclusion that this statement is kinda advice. And this is correct advice as it's one of the ways to reduce the level of poverty.
