From the memoirs of Otto Lais, a member of the German Infantry Regiment number one hundred and sixty-nine, it is observed that certain comments were made in relation to the Battle of the Somme which lasted between 1914-1916.
- A portion of the excerpt reads as follows:
<em>"Belt after belt was fire, 250 rounds - 1000 - 3000...18,000 rounds!"</em>
- In order to determine what he meant by this statement, it is important to read the protext, the text, and the statement in context.
- Hence the portions immediately before and after the statement relating to the number of bullets read thus:
<em>"The machine gunners were earning their pay today. Belt after belt was fired, 250 rounds - 1,000 - 3,000...The British kept charging forward. Despite the fact that hundreds are already lying dead in the shell holes to our front, fresh waves keep emerging from the assault trenches...18,000 rounds!"</em>
Then there is the last sentence from that excerpt:
"<em>The youth of England bled to death in front of Serre (our position)"</em>
- The report was one of bravery on their part and how they "dealt" with the English Army. Hence, the reference to bullet rounds was used to convey a sense of patriotism (Option D).
- If he meant to convey hatred, the document would have been filled with words describing the British army in such a manner.

Answer:
Explanation:
Thus, suffixes can determine the word's part of speech. Certain suffixes make the base or root word a noun, a verb, an adjective, or even an adverb. For example, look at the base word 'real', which is an adjective. Add the suffix '-ity' to get 'reality', which is a noun.
The rise of a merchant class foreshadow the rise of feudalism.
<h3>What is feudalism?</h3>
It should be noted that feudalism, was the combination of the legal, military, economic, and cultural customs that flourished in medieval Europe between the 9th and 15th centuries.
All of it started to alter with the development of the merchant class. While still ostensibly under the control of their primitive overlords, started to amass enough wealth and influence to require more freedom. Many medieval kings did not join them, but those that did tried to stifle and oppress the burgeoning prosperous shipper class.
Therefore, to whom did the shippers swing? Lord, of course! The monarchs saw this as an opportunity to regain control over their rogue vassals. As this trend continued, it elevated sovereignty to the form of unrestrained governance that emerged as the Middle Ages came to an end. Although it is a distortion, it nevertheless conveys the main idea.
