Answer:

C. To show that the General had a difficult time saying something.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, Twain uses the expression "to find his voice." This is an idiom that means that the general could not speak. This is Twain's way to say that the General had a difficult time saying something. This is likely a consequence of the fact that the General is in shock due to the actions of the man.

Which of these statements is a comparative claim?

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

4). A video news story usually creates a greater sense of urgency than a written version of the same story.

Explanation:

A comparative claim is characterized as the claim that aims to compare the similarities or differences between two ideas or objects. Among the given options, the last option most aptly establishes a comparison between 'a video news story' and 'a written version of the story.' It juxtaposes how the video version offers a more sensible and perceivable feeling of significance in comparison to the written form. Thus, it emphasizes how one is different from the other, and hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
