I believe the missing excerpt is from Midsummer by Derek
Walcott, which is as follows:
With the stampeding hiss and scurry of green lemmings,
midsummer's leaves race to extinction like the roar
of a Brixton riot tunneled by water hoses;
they seethe toward autumn's fire—it is in their nature,
being men as well as leaves, to die for the sun.
So, based on the excerpt, the speaker thinks that the
riot was somewhat inevitable.
To add, Midsummer is a sequence of 54 lyrics that record one
year's passing in the poet's life from summer to summer.
The correct answer is A) because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause.
<em>In Stalin's opinion, the USSR decide to go to war with Germany because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause. </em>
Joseph Stalin was a dictator. The people that surround him, his advisors, often said yes to everything he said. So in Stalin's mind, the Soviet Union had to wage war against Germany because he thought he had total support from the people in Russia; even dissenters in Germany. So he considered that he was fighting the tyrant Hitler and his expansionist ideas that included an invasion to the USSR territory as he did.
The other options of the question were b) because Britain would be fighting with the Soviets, c) because Soviet troops had received threats from German ships, and d) because Hitler took Polish territory when he broke the nonaggression pact.
The passage adds to the development of the text mainly by showing:
B. that Jabeen hopes to fit in with her peers by dressing in cool, Americanized outfits.
- This question refers to the story "Why I Lied to Everyone in High School about Knowing Karate," by Jabeen Akhtar.
- The author tells the story of two times when got recognition as a student.
- The first one was for writing an amazing story. However, the story was plagiarized.
- The second time was for knowing karate. However, she had never taken karate in her whole life.
- Jabeen never had the courage to tell people the truth. She desperately <u>wanted to be seen, acknowledged, admired</u>.
- She was just average - a C student who was not pretty or cool enough to be popular.
- The excerpt shows her need for acceptance. The way she carefully picks her outfit reflects her concern about fitting in.
- She wants to look stylish, but does not wish people to know she tried to look stylish.
- In conclusion, the excerpt shows that Jabeen wants to fit in, and that her clothes are chosen with that purpose.

Translated version:
I’m from Messaline. Sebastian was my father’s name, and my brother was named Sebastian too. He was dressed just like you are when he drowned. If ghosts can take on someone’s body and clothes, you must be a spirit who’s come to frighten us.
