The correct answer is A. "Fadeth" and "ruin'd."

Fadeth is just the old English way to write <em>fade, </em>and the verb <em>to fade </em>has a slightly negative connotation. If something fades, it disappears and you no longer have it. Similarly, ruin'd (which obviously stands for <em>ruined</em>), has a clearly negative connotation - meaning that something is destroyed.

So these two words give off the impression of a tone which is bad, sad, or gloomy, and therefore is the correct answer here.

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

<u>He opens his speech with a sentence referring to “a date which will live in infamy" to grab his audience's attention.</u>

Explanation:

The anecdote about the Japanese ambassador is important for the idea of the Day of Infamy as it points out the nature of the happenings in the Pearl Harbour. President Roosevelt refers to the diplomatic relations between Japan and the USA, as he was saying that the Japanese ambassador was communicating with the USA after the attack on Pearl Harbour was underway. The main idea of this speech is the Japanese trait of the trust of the USA.
