Answer:
Communal responsibility
Explanation:
Being responsible refers to knowing what to do, and doing it. Not shying away from one's obligations defines a responsible individual and thua earns such person the title of being addressed as a responsible man or woman. Obligations are diverse though with various aspects of our lives requiring certain duties to be fulfilled. Those duties expected of us from our various towns, residences or community are termed Communal responsibilies or obligations. This involves active contribution towards the betterment of the community through action, finance if required and so on.
The phrases creating a tone of foreboding are:
- "strange blight;"
- "evil spell;"
- "mysterious maladies;"
- "shadow of death."
<em>Foreboding</em> means predicting or announcing that something bad is about to happen. Taking the answers one by one, you can see how they relate to the same ominous idea:
- a "strange blight" and "evil maladies" refer to a destructive condition which no-body can explain;
- an "evil spell" means that it is interpreted as a magical curse;
- the "shadow of death" is a metaphor meaning that death is coming to the crops or cattle (depending on the original text excerpt).
B. Roots
Roots are the smallest meaningful parts of words. For example the root word of aquamarine would be Aqua, which means water. So the root word can also give you a hint on the meaning of the word.
