kumpel [21]

Answer:

I would say that D, "One week later only one puppy remains, and the Coates family decides to keep him."

Explanation:

First, I would like to discuss the reason I would consider this sentences clear and concise.

We can see that is gives us a direct time, one week, instead of just "later."

We can see that it gives us an exact number of puppies left, one.

We can see that it gives us a gender, being male.

We can see that it gives us the actual name of the family, the Coates.

Now, lets talk about the falls of the other 3 senteces.

In A, it does not discuss how many puppies are being chased down.

In B, it does not discuss which neighbors bring leashes and does not establish what puppies needed to be controlled.

In C, it does not discuss what family will be watching the five puppies.

With the given information, I would choose D.

Hope this helps!

Read the following reason that has been given to justify slavery and answer the question.
professor190 [17]

Answer: We are not initially responsible for the capture of slaves taken as a result of war.

The first statement disputes the claim because it argues that captives from wars might still be taken in an unjust way. The third statement similarly disputes the claim by arguing that not all captives are victims of combat, but some were kidnapped despite their peaceful existence. Finally, the last statement argues that even if captives were taken lawfully in those wars, it would still be a great kindness to help them.

The second statement, on the other hand, supports the claim. It argues that the capture of slaves is not our responsibility, as they have been lawfully taken during war.
