Answer:

C) is the greatest option because it clearly explains the causes for the false warning and its impact.

Explanation:

This passage from "The Great Fire" features a cause-and-effect framework that helps viewers comprehend why firemen responded ineffectively. We're told that the initial mistake was made by one man, Schaffer, who struck a different box than would have been optimum. He quickly understood that wasn't the case and ordered box 319 to be struck. The second error is made by Schaffer's assistant, William. He refuses to do as he is told, despite the fact that the instruction came from his supervisor. Firefighters are perplexed by his audacity since he hits the wrong box. As a result, the fire was not effectively battled, and it burned for several terrible minutes because firms didn't know what to do.

Read the definitions, then choose the word that correctly completes the sentence. In- = not aud = to hear -ible = can be done -i
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

My grandfather spoke so quietly that his words were almost inaudible.

Explanation:

We are supposed to use the infixes (formative elements of a word) to form a word that will complete the sentence properly. According to the sentence, the speaker's grandfather spoke quietly. We can safely assume it was difficult for the speaker to hear the words his grandfather said. In that case, we need "aud", which is connected to the verb "hear". Since it was not possible to hear, we also need "in-", meaning "not", and "-ible", meaning "can be done". Together, they form the adjective "inaudible", which means "unable to be heard".

When we complete the sentence, it becomes:

My grandfather spoke so quietly that his words were almost inaudible.

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game.
masya89 [10]

Answer: Hall knew that growing outrage among the American public would help Britain's cause.

Explanation: According the the excerpt, it says that "Hall reminded them", thus saying that Hall was not in favor of waiting before presenting the telegram.

Hall didn't want to wait until American outrage simmered down before revealing the contents of the telegram. No where in the excerpt does it hint this.

Hall wasn't worried that the Americans would lose interest in the contents of the telegram. The telegram contained information that would alert the Americans of a possible attack from Mexico.

Hall did disagree with the waiting, but the excerpt is hinting that Hall wanted to use the telegram to gain supporters for Britain against the Germans.

Cheers

(If I'm wrong, then the answer is that Hall disagreed with the British government's choice to wait before showing the telegraph to Wilson)
