Mynheer Vandedendur had approached Candide introducing himself as the master of a large sea vessel.

  • In an ongoing negotiation to help transport Candide to Venice in Italy, Candide hastily agrees (without bargaining to the sum of 10,000 piasters.

  • This action was Candides' mistake for no sooner had he agreed to that amount did the disguised Dutch Skipper up the fees to 30,000 piasters for the Dutch skipper estimated that Candide's sheep carried much treasure.

  • In another serious fail, Candide pays the fare, all of it in advance, while two of his sheep were loaded aboard. And somehow, the Dutch Skipper manages to sail away without Candide.

The correction option from the group of answer choices, therefore, is option D.

Which best analyzes the author's effectiveness in "the date of infamy"?
neonofarm [45]

You might be talking about Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Infamy speech, given just after the pre-emptive attack on Pearl Harbor and the Philippines by the Empire of Japan. The short speech emphasizes on how Japan attacked the United States without first declaring war, and then declaring that the United States is ready to act and do measures for defense.

English help, 1 question?
IRISSAK [1]
The correct answer is C. week is.
The reason why this is incorrect is because there has to be a comma between the words week and is. The clause 'who is visiting the US this week' is an appositive clause, which means that it has to be set off from the rest of the sentence using commas. Hope this helps!
