Answer:

B  Any good that Trujillo did for the Dominican Republic was far outweighed by the corruption and terror he oversaw as the country’s president.

D  The Mirabal sisters are feminist icons that should be celebrated for their willingness to sacrifice their lives.

Explanation:

I believe the question is related to the article entitled "Trujillo & the Mirabal Sisters."

Rafael Trujillo Molina was a ruler of<em> Dominican Republic</em> from <u>1930 to 1961</u>. Although he accomplish many things as a leader such as<em> building public roads</em> and<em> reducing the nation's debt,</em> <u>his corruption and terror outweighed this. </u>He was known for enjoying savagery and became responsible for the "Parsley Massacre," which killed many Haitians.

On the other hand, the Mirabal sisters were <em>feminists icons</em> who did not fear Trujillo's tyranny. The sisters consisted of<em> Patria, Maria Teresa</em> and <em>Minerva Mirabal</em>. The code name that they used was <u>"Las Mariposas."</u> They showed their opposition to Trujillo's dictatorship by forming a movement that would overthrow Trujillo. This showed that they were willing to sacrifice their lives despite the risk involved in such a police state.

So, this explains the answers.

What does ‘or bring your latter hazard back again’ mean?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

In this speech

"  But if you please To shoot another arrow that self way Which you did shoot the first, I do not doubt, As I will watch the aim, or to find both Or bring your latter hazard back again And thankfully rest debtor for the first. "

The Bassanio is the person who explains that in the time when he was a schoolboy he lost an arrow and he would try to find it by shooting an arrow again and again the same direction.  

By doing this experiment he would usually get them both back.

Thus Bassanio uses this example from his childhood to explain to Antonio to give him another chance, another loan.

And that he would use it very carefully so that he gets enough money to pay off all his debts, or at least pay off his latest loan and he will be grateful for the previous loans he had taken.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

a time relationship between the events in sentences 3 and 4

Explanation:

Kevin's paragraph is written in chronological order. He uses transition words to show the time relationship between the events throughout the paragraph. However, there is not a signal word that indicates how long after the workshop the family attended the workshop that the woman came to their house. The other options are not correct because the entire paragraph demonstrates the family's interest in helping animals. The connection between the family and woman is clear when it says that she came to their house. The last option is simply incorrect as well since a personal narrative is written in first person point of view.
