English

Answer:

C

Explanation:

For the most part of the war, armies preserved old military tactics (fieldwork) of espionage rather than fully adapting to new techniques.

Here's why the other answers are incorrect:

A) "Photography and the telegraph brought some technological advances" in comparison to the previous wars, so A is incorrect. Intelligence was, for the most part, gathered in the same ways it had been previously, but these new technologies were still utilized.

B) Photograph and the telegraph are mentioned, but they are not the main point of the paragraph. Basically, "although the use of photography and the telegraph brought some technological advances," this fact is only being mentioned in the paragraph to emphasize the minimal progress of "the means of obtaining military intelligence," as intelligence was often still "gathered in simple ways" only. Armies "still relied on fieldwork." So B is incorrect.

D) Option D only refers to one source of information in the paragraph, "runaway slaves;" it does not fully or efficiently summarize the paragraph.

They knew what was right and what was evil, but, fools, they chose the evil way. Two aliens, Starglyn and Suncon, landed on a stretch of meadow between two hills that face a crumbling city. The city was once a prosperous one but over population and overconsumption of natural resources brought decay to the city. All died, man and animal. The city was rendered lifeless.

Adjust the percentage of Chris investments to make his portfolio one with potential for high growth
Leni [432]

Answer:

Deducting some percentage of amount from savings and investing them in bonds will give higher rates.

Explanation:

It is believed that bond is better than savings. Stocks and bonds together are as good as mutual funds and saving accounts together. So, Chris should increase the investment in Stock and deduct that amount from mutual. Also, he can deduct some amount form savings and invest in bonds. This would give him higher interest rates.

In a nutshell, there is some amount in mutual and some amount in savings, which would be beneficial in case there is any loss in stock and bonds.
