The answer is C) urged

c) urged

In this sentence, exhorted is the action of the elder traveler. The use of the word "onward" suggests that the people have been traveling a long distance and still have a long distance to go. We also know that the elder wants the other traveler with him "to make good speed" or hurry up. Since exhorted is a verb, we need another verb to act as a synonym. Worthy is not a verb so it is eliminated immediately. Also, helped can be easily eliminated because the story does not make either person sound as though they'd be generous or helpful. The elder traveler does not sound as though he would not beg for anything. The correct answer is urged.

Read the excerpt from "A Genetics of Justice” by Julia Alvarez.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The author's parents were afraid to discuss murders or events in the Dominican Republic.

Explanation:

The author's parents clearly did not want to discuss anything that had to do with the Dominican Republic. They went out of their way to ensure that the author did not find out about any of the events on the island even though he / she wanted to know.

The parents most likely thought it would be wiser not to discuss cruel and bloody happenings with the children who should instead be focusing on life in the new country.

Penn commits a tort while acting in the interest of her undisclosed principal. Who is responsible or liable? Principal and agent
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Principal Only.

Explanation:

The word 'tort' is borrowed from Latin word 'tortum' which means 'wrong, or injustice.' Thus, the word tort means to cause an injury or harm to someone or someone's property.

Tort is committed in many ways. <u>'Agency Relationship Liability Tort'</u> is the type of tort in which a principal and an agent is required. In such torts, a principal will be held responsible directly in cases when he fails to supervise his agent, when he directly commands his agent to commit tort, or when he neglects to check the background of the agent while hiring.

<u>In the given case, the unnamed principal will be held directly responsible for guiding Penn to commit tort. Because Penn committed tort in the interest of her undisclosed principal</u>.

Thus the correct answer is 'Principal Only.'
