Answer:
Understatement.
Explanation:
An understatement is a statement that describes something in a way that makes it sound less important. In this case, if the Army Intelligence calls you up for a meeting, saying that they want to "chat" is an understatement because it's probably much more serious than that.
This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:
Question: In the above excerpt, which words best establish immediacy?
A) "White men have been known to encourage slaves to escape."
B) "… that I should be free."
C) "I pretended not to be interested in what they said."
D) There is no immediacy.
Answer:
The words that best establish immediacy are:
B) "… that I should be free."
Explanation:
<u>By definition, immediacy is the quality of creating excitement and a sense of urgency by involving someone instantly. Now, imagine being a slave and wishing nothing more than freedom. If someone told you to run away "...that [you] should be free," can you imagine how you would feel? The excitement this would bring? The urgency to escape and finally get rid of the cruelties done to you? For that reason, letter B is the best option. "...that I should be free" are the words that create a sense of immediacy.</u>
The answers are:
carefully, with attention to detail
"...so that it perfectly faces true north."
I believe the answer is C.
