Read the last line of the poem “One, Two, Three” and the biographical information about Hannah Senesh, and then answer the quest

ion that follows. I gambled on what mattered most, the dice were cast. I lost. Hannah Senesh joined the British Army in 1943, and would volunteered to enter Hungary in an effort to provide aid to the Jewish communities that were under attack. The Hungarian police almost immediately captured her, and she underwent cruel torture as they attempted to obtain information from her about her mission. However, Senesh refused to tell them anything, and refused to request clemency. Even threats against her mother did not compel her to cooperate with the Hungarian police. She remained courageous and committed to her cause, and when she was executed for treason by firing squad at the age of twenty-three, she refused the blindfold and instead stared down her executors. Based on the biographical information about Hannah Senesh, what inference could be made about the "gamble" referred to in the last line of the poem? Include information from the biographical excerpt to support your inference.

Answer:

written below

Explanation:

Because Hannah called her decision a gamble, we can infer that Hannah knew that her decision to leave everything behind and fight for her cause could end in her death. She knew that it might be death and she accepted that. There is nothing better to die for than for something you believe in. To most people dying for something that isn't fame, money, or power, and is in actuality dying quite young it is psychotic. To Hannah it was effortless and it inspires so many to do the right thing no matter what!

How does the title, "A Modest Proposal," tell the reader that the piece is satirical?
Sphinxa [80]

The correct answer is C. The author’s proposal is actually extreme and violent, not gentle as the title says.

Satire, similar to irony, is achieved when you are trying to mock something or someone, usually by exaggerating and writing the opposite of what is expected. So, the title A Modest Proposal is not modest by any means - Swift wrote in this text that poor people should sell their children to rich people as food in order to keep the economy going. You can clearly see how the title is satirical then.

The option through which the subject and verb agree are "finish/take"

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language and it can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Thus, a verb is an action or doing word.

Some examples of a verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit,  clap, cheer, read, etc.

A subject can be defined as the person, thing, idea or place that performs an action in a sentence.

On a related note, a subject-verb agreement is a situation in which there exist a relationship between the predicate and subject of a sentence.

This ultimately implies that, a subject and a verb must agree either in terms of number or tense usage.

In this context, the most appropriate verb to use in completing the sentence is finish (present tense) because its subject (crowd) is singular (each of the committee members). Also, the latter part of the sentence should be completed using the verb take (present tense).  

<em>In conclusion, the subject and verb in this scenario agrees when finish and take are used respectively.</em>
