Select the correct answer. Read this speech given by US Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel on Veterans Day 2014. What is the purpo

se of the speech? Every year, we set aside Veterans Day to honor all the men and women who’ve served our country in uniform. We celebrate veterans from generations past. We welcome a new generation of veterans home from war. And we thank our future veterans, still serving at home and abroad. They are securing our nation through their engagement across the globe. Some are in West Africa, contributing to the global effort to stop the spread of Ebola. Some are in the Middle East, working closely with our coalition partners in the fight against ISIL. And some are in Afghanistan, where next month the United States will responsibly end the longest war in our history. For our troops serving around the world today, and those transitioning out of the military, our obligations are only beginning. Taking care of them, and their families, is a sacred responsibility we must always uphold. Let’s celebrate them by telling their stories. Let’s help those who need it, while supporting their strength and resilience. And let’s honor our veterans by creating new opportunities for them to contribute after their service, so they can continue making a difference in the world. To all our veterans—thank you. Thank you for everything you’ve done for our country. You’re among the best our nation has to offer. God bless you and your families, and happy Veterans Day. A. to express gratitude to US veterans B. to inform the country where veterans are stationed C. to persuade Americans to show their gratitude to veterans D. to support the families and friends of US veterans

Topic: Buying Food

  One day, I quickly ran to the market to grab some grub(food). I slowly grabbed the bag of chips from the isles and happily skipped to the counter. The cashier quietly awaited for the payment. I furiously looked into my pockets for my money. Quickly scattering my pockets I've come to noticed I had no money. I quickly raced outside the door, throwing the food on the floor. I sadly cried thinking how i lost my money.

Hope this helps, made it on the spot :)

Describe how you feel about yourself in 12 sentence
andre [41]

Answer:

I think I am a great person but I have flaws like everybody else. I try my hardest to be kind to others and help people the best that I can. Things get rough sometimes but I am great and pushing through it. My past (mainly talking about last school year) wasnt the best, I focused on other peoples opinions rather than my own. Sometimes people like to bring up my past but I brush it off because I am an amazing person now. I have learned to surround myself with less toxic people who actually make me happy. Ide like to say I am a unique person and am fun to be around. I do not seek validation from others. I love almost everything about myself and learned to embrace my flaws rather than drag myself for them.  I like to think that I am an attractive person. I think that if people are going to talk about me it is their loss because I am great and they just seek validation. I am confident and an extrovert who likes to be around people. Overall, Ide say I am a good human being.
