No sooner had the marigolds blossomed than a sudden hailstorm destroyed all of my annual flowers. C. A sudden hailstorm was destroying my annual flowers when the marigolds blossomed.
Answer:
The choice that contains no shifts in either verb tense or point of view is:
B. No sooner had the marigolds blossomed than a sudden hailstorm destroyed all of my annual flowers.
Explanation:
Sentence B is in the past perfect tense, and is told in the third person point of view. A story in the third person point of view can be narrated with the use of "he," "she," "they," and "it". The marigolds can be replaced with "they" and “a sudden hailstorm” can be replaced with "it" in the sentence. Importantly, when a story is narrated in the third person point of view, the author or narrator talks about the characters by referring to them by their names or the usage of the third person pronouns mentioned above.

Nonverbal communication includes all ways people communicate without using words. This includes gestures, facial expressions, tone of voice, eye contact, body language, posture, etc.
It's known that women are more expressive when it comes to nonverbal communication than men. They are better at understanding nonverbal signals as well.

The year 2020 was a historic one. Describe in just ONE WORD what you have gained / learned.
If your answer is not related to my question, I will report it.
Answer:
EMPATHY.
Explanation:
I believe that the word that perfectly describes what I have gained and learned is empathy. Of course, I had it before, but it wasn't until this year that I fully understood it. Seeing what other people are going through in these tough times made me realize how privileged I am and how much other people may be struggling. I learned how to empathize with them, and understand their feelings and troubles, and it taught me how to be a better person. I hope I will be able to help them in the future somehow.

The French Revolution was indeed a monumental event in French history. The main cause behind the French Revolution was the oppression of the French people coupled with increased taxes and a rise in food prices. The French monarchy was at the brink of bankruptcy, and it imposed high taxes on its citizens.
During the French Revolution, King Louis XVI was executed, along with his wife, Marie Antoinette. The people wanted to establish a democracy, but the results were far from what they expected. They only managed to replace one dysfunctional system with another. The French Revolution led to the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte and wars with neighboring European countries.
A.

PLZ Help! Read and answer the questions on the side of the document
Lenin was arrested in 1895, sent to jail, and later exiled to Siberia, where he married Nadezhda Krupskaya, whom he had known in the St. Petersburg underground movement. During this period, the first Russian Marxist political party was founded, the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party, or Social Democrats. When his exile ended, in 1900, Lenin went abroad to Western Europe, where he was joined by Krupskaya, and began to publish a revolutionary newspaper, Iskra (The Spark), which fellow revolutionaries smuggled into Russia. Meanwhile, in 1903 the Social Democrats held their second Congress, in Brussels and London, and there the party split in two, forming a radical group, the Bolsheviks (Majority), and a more moderate group, the Mensheviks (Minority). Lenin, who advocated an elite group of revolutionaries rather than a larger, more broad-based party, took up leadership of the Bolsheviks.
Until 1917, Lenin and Krupskaya traveled around Europe, agitating and organizing for a revolution they believed to be inevitable. (During this time, he met Inessa Armand, a Bolshevik agitator who was to become his closest friend– and possibly his lover.) In Russia, Tsar Nicholas II's government survived the 1905 Revolution by agreeing to the formation of a representative body called the "Duma," but the stresses brought on by Russia's involvement in World War I proved too great for the struggling autocracy. In 1917, the Russian Revolution toppled the Tsarist government, and Lenin returned from exile in Switzerland, thanks to the intervention of the Germans, who allowed him to travel through the war zone in a sealed train. From March until November of 1917, Russia was ruled by a Provisional Government, which made plans for a democratically elected assembly. A number of miscalculations, however, along with the strain of continuing the war with Germany, paved the way for a Bolshevik coup in November of 1917.
Lenin led the new government, which quickly made peace with the Germans and conducted a bloody civil war against the "Whites," a loose collection of armies united only by their opposition to Bolshevism. Those fighting on the side of the government were known as the "Reds." After much violence, the Reds won, largely thanks to the work of Leon Trotsky, a former Menshevik, who organized the Red Army. In this struggle, Lenin ordered the use of brutal tactics, against Whites but also civilians, as he put into bloody practice the Marxist ideas of class warfare. The campaign became known as the "Red Terror", and saw the murders of thousands of Russian peasants, and the consignment of thousands more into concentration camps as "enemies of the revolution." Lenin's accompanying economic innovations then caused a terrible famine, in 1921, which killed nearly 5 million people.
By 1922, Lenin was the ruler of a united Russia, however wretched, which was renamed the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. However, he suffered two strokes in 1922, and a third in 1923 that robbed him of the power of speech. He survived another year before passing away on January 21, 1924. He was succeeded by Joseph Stalin, whose influence Lenin had warned against before his death, and who would soon emerge as one of the bloodiest tyrants in the 20th century. Meanwhile, Lenin acquired the status of a secular saint, and his embalmed body was placed in Moscow's Red Square as a national shrine. His reputation survived, if only in the writings of Soviet propaganda, until the demise of the Soviet Union in 1991, when to criticize the founder of the communist state no longer constituted a crime.

READ the following excerpt from "Beyond Vietnam-A Time to Break Silence," by Martin Luther King, Jr..
1. Since I am a preacher by calling, I suppose it is not surprising that I have... major reasons for bringing Vietnam into the field of my moral vision. There is at the outset a very obvious and almost facile connection between the war in Vietnam and the struggle I, and others, have been waging in America. A few years ago there was a shining moment in that struggle. It seemed as if there was a real promise of hope for the poor—both black and white—through the poverty program. There were experiments, hopes, new beginnings. Then came the buildup in Vietnam, and I watched this program broken and eviscerated, as if it were some idle political plaything of a society gone mad on war, and I knew that America would never invest the necessary funds or energies in rehabilitation of its poor so long as adventures like Vietnam continued to draw men and skills and money like some demonic destructive suction tube. So, I was increasingly compelled to see the war as an enemy of the poor and to attack it as such.
2. Perhaps a more tragic recognition of reality took place when it became clear to me that the war was doing far more than devastating the hopes of the poor at home. It was sending their sons and their brothers and their husbands to fight and to die in extraordinarily high proportions relative to the rest of the population. We were taking the black young men who had been crippled by our society and sending them eight thousand miles away to guarantee liberties in Southeast Asia which they had not found in southwest Georgia and East Harlem. And so we have been repeatedly faced with the cruel irony of watching Negro and white boys on TV screens as they kill and die together for a nation that has been unable to seat them together in the same schools. And so we watch them in brutal solidarity burning the huts of a poor village, but we realize that they would hardly live on the same block in Chicago. I could not be silent in the face of such cruel manipulation of the poor.
3. My [next] reason moves to an even deeper level of awareness, for it grows out of my experience in the ghettoes of the North over the last three years—especially the last three summers. As I have walked among the desperate, rejected, and angry young men, I have told them that Molotov cocktails and rifles would not solve their problems. I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining my conviction that social change comes most meaningfully through nonviolent action. But they ask—and rightly so—what about Vietnam? They ask if our own nation wasn't using massive doses of violence to solve its problems, to bring about the changes it wanted. Their questions hit home, and I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today—my own government. For the sake of those boys, for the sake of this government, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands trembling under our violence, I cannot be silent.
4. For those who ask the question, “Aren't you a civil rights leader?” and thereby mean to exclude me from the movement for peace, I have this further answer. In 1957 when a group of us formed the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, we chose as our motto: “To save the soul of America.” We were convinced that we could not limit our vision to certain rights for black people, but instead affirmed the conviction that America would never be free or saved from itself until the descendants of its slaves were loosed completely from the shackles they still wear.... Now, it should be incandescently clear that no one who has any concern for the integrity and life of America today can ignore the present war. If America’s soul becomes totally poisoned, part of the autopsy must read: Vietnam. It can never be saved so long as it destroys the deepest hopes of men the world over. So it is that those of us who are yet determined that America will be—are—are led down the path of protest and dissent, working for the health of our land.
