Answer:
- "This was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race."
- "... they were far better off than they had been in the days of Jones, and that before all else it was needful to prevent the return of the human beings."
Explanation:
1. This statement support the theme especially looking at the ending part which says, "they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race". We note that the perceived oppression they experienced prompted them to act, but despite acting they were still struggling with the alternative course of action.
2. The statement "they were far better off" indicates that they experienced oppression "in the days of Jones".
Thus, after their ordeal they were determined more than ever to avoid the alternative of not preventing the return of the human beings.
Answer:
The correct answer is "two-thirds".
Explanation:
In English, we use "hyphen" (punctuation mark) to join two or more words. These should not be confused with "dashes", who are a longer punctuation mark and have other uses like separate explanatory phrases.
Hyphens are used to join words or terms to avoid confusions and they are written with no space between them and the words. In some cases, they are used to preserve the text's clarity: when adding a prefix (great-grandmother) or when the final and initial letters coincide (co-operate).
In this specific case, "two-thirds" is a fraction, so the hyphens are used to let know the relation between these two words instead of reading them as separated numbers.

B. War can cause daily life to change in a moment's notice without warning.
Explanation:
In this excerpt, we see the town of Hadjin living in peace and undisturbed by the war in Turkey. Men could meet in coffee houses to drink and play games.
But things change when a soldier on horseback visited to nail the notice on the wall of the bakery. Everything changed at this moment. The normal life in Hadjin was interrupted by the ensuing war coming to Hadjin.
In "My Mother's Voice: The Proclamation" , the author Kay Mouradian brings her mother's voice and experiences to life. Her mother, Flora Minishian and family who lived in Hadjin, Turkey were displaced and forced out of their homes alongside other Armenians. At this time, Flora was 14 years old and was attending an American school in Hadjin. Her father stow her and her sister in Aleppo and they hid there during the World War I. But Flora never saw her parents and brothers again after the war.
