In my opinion, the correct option would be, "She had been participating in songwriting contests since she was ten: noting fulfilled her more than music".
I believe your answer would be D. Procure means to obtain something. So... viewing is the opposite of obtaining.
Answer:
I'd 'accidently' throw a pencil at her but that's just me-
Lol don't do that though-
According to Thomas Paine, it is just and justifiable to go to war under two circumstances. One of them is when the sacrifice of a few men would save masses of human beings and made them happy. The evidence of this can be grasped by the phrase he uses: '... when a little might have saved the whole, and made them happy.'
The other situation that can justify a war is when troops invade a country and make it theirs. Paine beholds a country as a home, that's why he uses that metaphor to describe a piece of land. The evidence for this statement is when he says '... but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it... am I to suffer it?
On the other hand, he does not believe it is justifiable to go to war seeking wealth. He states: 'Not all the treasures of the world, so far as I believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war...'
Here is an edited version of your initial answer (it was still great):
It was a murky
and dreary day outside with nothing to do since the rain wouldn’t stop pouring
down. Wandering around the monotonous house aimlessly, I suddenly found myself
in front of the antique book shelf. I snatched at the first book I glimpsed at
and thought, “At least this’ll give me something to do.” The book discussed the
life of a girl who lived in India which I’ve never even stepped a foot in. Therefore,
it was very exciting and adventurous to read. Hours went by and soon my mother shrieked,
“Claire, the sun it out, would you like to go out and play?” I then responded, “No,
I would much rather take the weight off my feet and read my book.”
Let me know if you need anything else.
