Read the excerpt from "Code Talkers." Although American Indian soldiers had effectively used their languages to create and trans
mit secret messages during World War I, military leaders were reluctant to use the code a second time, fearing that it would no longer be effective. The Japanese and German governments had sent students to the United States specifically to learn certain American Indian languages. The Navajo language, however, was so complex that few people outside the Navajo Nation itself could speak it. In 1942, it was estimated that only thirty non-Navajos spoke the language worldwide. Which questions would improve the reader's ability to understand the military leaders' fear that the code would no longer be effective? Select 2 options.
A). How many people spoke Navajo before World War I
?
B). Was the US government able to figure out other countries’ codes
?
Explanation:
The above questions would assist in enhancing the readers' ability to comprehend that the military leaders' dread of code not being effective to be used for the second time. The question regarding the 'number of people speaking Navajo prior to WWI' would provide a hint to the readers that they are fearing that the code might be decoded by an outsider(who knew the language) or the students who were sent for learning American Indian languages. <u><em>The next question regarding the US government's success in decoding the codes of other countries further substantiates that they had an innate dread of their first code being decoded already by them(US government</em></u>). Thus, <u>options A and B</u> are the correct answers.
