Which word best completes the passage above? (5 points)
Attentive
Bored
Nervous
Noisy
Please answer correctly, I will mark brainliest if I get this correct.
Answer:
A. Attentive.
Explanation:
The baseball whizzed by my bat and the umpire called "Strike!" The crowd was silent but attentive as the pitcher prepared to throw what could be the final pitch of the championships.
In order to qualify the noun "crowd" and complement the action they were engaged in; an adjective such as "attentive" would be used.
Also, since the pitcher was throwing what could be considered to be the final pitch of the championships, the crowd would be attentive to see what the outcome is i.e whether or not it may lead to the opposition team earning a point.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead follows the "off-stage" exploits of two minor characters from Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. While the two main characters in Stoppard's play occasionally make brief appearances in "Hamlet," as scripted in Shakespeare's original tragedy, the majority of the play takes place in other parts of the castle where Hamlet is set. While "off stage" in this way, the characters resemble the main characters in the absurdist Waiting for Godot. As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time. These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet.
What is the author’s purpose in this passage?
a) To inform the reader about stage adaptations of Shakespeare’s characters.
b) To convince the reader that Shakespeare’s writing is out of date today.
c) To persuade the reader to explore more works by Shakespeare and others.
d) To question the reader about current understandings of Shakespeare’s writing.

A. They thought that the amendment made it too easy for uneducated African Americans to vote.

C. They thought a ban on discrimination against women should be included in the amendment.
D. They believe that the amendment was too poorly written to hold up in court against law suits.
Answer:
C. They thought a ban on discrimination against women should be included in the amendment.
Explanation:
The 14th Amendment granted American citizenship to all people born or naturalized in the USA, including ex-slaves. This allowed ex-slaves to be considered citizens and to have the right to vote. This infuriated the women involved in the suffragette movement, as women were not considered in this amendment and therefore were not considerate citizens, neither white nor black, which prevented them from voting and made them not only submissive to white men but also to blacks.
