Answer:

Recruits

Explanation:

As part of the Free Speech Movement, Goines was totally against war. In this way, when writing "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie", the author makes use of sarcasm to satirize the idea of recruits as being "conscripts", that is to say, prisoners of the U.S. Army.

Eva always wanted to be a veterinarian. She just got her license and opened her own practice. Her next goal would be to
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are a few viable answers to this question.

What we know of Eva is that she has her veterinary license, and currently has her own practice open. Even though it is not specified in the text, we can infer that Eva does have lodging in an apartment or rental home. This makes saving to buy a house over a period of time less urgent since she does currently have a place to live, even though she would like to eventually own her own home.

I feel that the best choice is option #3, she is prioritizing her goals and adjusting from a short-term to a long-term goal. Investing in a home takes a lot of time and saving. Since it is not specified how much student debt Eva has, we can assume that with her practice open, she will be able to pay off her student loans in a timely fashion, as well as save money on the side for a home. Option #4 could also have a case made for it, but I feel that option #3 is the best option.

What is wrong with this citation: (Herring, The American Century and beyond: U.S. foreign relations, 1893-2014, 2017).
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Omission of author's first name, published information, incorrect citation of print with the wrong usage of brackets.

Explanation:

Citation is very crucial to the paper writing as it may spoil the effectiveness of the work if the references are cited inappropriately. Here, the first name of the author is missing along with the publishing information. The correct citation of this example would be;

Herring, George C., The American Century and beyond: U.S. foreign relations, 1893-2014. Oxford History of United States Series,Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2017.
