It is C, Mark Antony refutes Brutus’ accusations of Caesar being overly ambitious
by giving examples of his humility and his great love for Romans, whom

In the following excerpt of "Sinners in the hands of an angry God", Edwards extensively compares God's wrath with great Warters:
"The Wrath of God is like great Waters that are dammed for the present; they increase more and more, & rise higher and higher, till an Outlet is given, and the longer the Stream is stop’d, the more rapid and mighty is it’s Course, when once it is let loose. 'Tis true, that Judgment against your evil Works has not been executed hitherto; the Floods of God’s Vengeance have been with-held; but your Guilt in the mean Time is constantly increasing, and you are every Day treasuring up more Wrath; the Waters are continually rising an waxing more and more mighty; and there is nothing but the meer Pleasure of God that holds the Waters back that are unwilling to be stopped, and press hard to go forward; if God should only withdraw his Hand from the Flood-Gate, it would immediately fly open, and the fiery Floods of the Fierceness and Wrath of God would rush forth with inconceivable Fury, and would come upon you with omnipotent Power; and if your Strength were ten thousand Times greater than it is, yea ten thousand Times greater than the Strength of the stoutest, sturdiest, Devil in Hell, it would be nothing to withstand or endure it."
<span>In those quotations from the story, author is using both direct and indirect
characterization. Direct characterization is when author directly states what characters are like and indirect characterization shows personality of a character
through speech, looks, actions, thought and effects on others. In the first quotation
author is using direct characterization through stating how character looks and states her actions –
Della is slender and she has mastered the arts. In second quotation author also uses direct characterization through looks and actions – Madam is large, too
white, chilly and she hardly looks at ‘Sofronie. In the third quotation, Madam’s
characterization is indirectly shown through her action and speech – she bidded
twenty dollars by lifting her hand. An in the fourth quotation indirect
characterization is shown through actions – he looked the watch on the sly.</span>
Answer:
B. Populous
Explanation:
The best option that completes this sentence is the word 'populous'.
<em>Did you know Hong Kong is one of the world's most </em><u><em>populous</em></u><em> cities?</em>
To complete this sentence we needed a word that modifies the noun 'cities', so we needed an adjective.
Option A is wrong because it is misspelled.
Option C is wrong because it is a noun. To put two nouns together doesn't make any sense to the information of the sentence.
Option B is correct.
<u>Populous (adjective)</u> - full of residents or inhabitants, as a region; heavily populated. This word is completely suitable for our sentence as it finishes its complete thought.
