I am very sorry for not doing my work this week. It has been very difficult during ______ to get all my work done. You know that we had a parent-teacher conference yesterday. My dad didn't tell you, but he has ______. That is why I haven't been able to do work. I had to take care of him. There is no need to quarantine or even call my dad. He will say he doesn't have it, but he's just kidding. Remember DO NOT call my dad and ask if he has ______ because he will lie. He can't even walk, so I don't have time to complete assignments. I know you saw him walk yesterday, but he hired an actor so you wouldn't be worried. And no my mom doesn't have _______, but she can't take care of my dad because she has to.....feed the cats everyday. So she doesn't have time to take care of my "sick" dad. My dad will be sick next week also, so don't expect work from me. I hope you understand! Thanks!
Sincerely,

McCarthy quotes Stalin and Lenin… to convince communist sympathizers to join his cause against communism. to point out how communist leaders promise a good deal but rarely follow through. to support his argument that communism has already infiltrated most of Europe. to support his claims that communist and non-communist states cannot exist in peace.
Answer:
to support his claims that communist and non-communist states cannot exist in peace
Explanation:
McCarthy claimed that communism's greatest flaw was that its only religion was immorality (or Immoralism as he called it). He quoted Stalin to emphasize the fact that communism repudiates Christianity and that communist values oppose Christian values. Communists cannot live in peace with Christians and will not accept Christian democracy, and they will fight against them to impose their communist doctrine.
He also claimed that the greatest threat to America wouldn't come from actions of communists abroad, instead, it would come from traitors within the nation.

Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907: My first impressions of the New World will always remain etched in my memory, particularly that hazy October morning when I first saw Ellis Island. The steamer Florida, fourteen days out of Naples, filled to capacity with 1600 natives of Italy, had weathered one of the worst storms in our captain's memory; and glad we were, both children and grown-ups, to leave the open sea and come at last through the Narrows into the Bay. My mother, my stepfather, my brother Giuseppe, and my two sisters, Liberta and Helvetia, all of us together, happy that we had come through the storm safely, clustered on the foredeck for fear of separation and looked with wonder on this miraculous land of our dreams. The purpose of this excerpt is to help readers understand
Answer:

This is more evident in the passage "My mother, my stepfather, my brother Giuseppe, and my two sisters, Liberta and Helvetia, all of us together, happy that we had come through the storm safely, clustered on the foredeck for fear of separation and looked with wonder on this miraculous land of our dreams.

Read the excerpt from "Early Victorian Tea Set." But a loving, tranquil cup of tea has a violent hinterland. When all tea came into Europe from China, the British East India Company traded opium for silver and used that silver to buy tea. The trade was so important that it brought the two countries to war. The first of the conflicts, which we still refer to as the Opium Wars – they were in fact just as much about tea – broke out more or less as our teapot was leaving the Wedgwood factory. Partly because of these difficulties with China, in the 1830s the British set up plantations in the area around Calcutta and Indian tea was exempted from import duty to encourage demand. What is the author's viewpoint in this excerpt? England's demand for tea encouraged international cooperation. England's demand for tea caused conflict around the world. Britain planted tea in China because Britain was at war with India. Britain traded silver to buy tea, which resulted in high taxes.
Answer:
England's demand for tea caused conflict around the world
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from "Early Victorian Tea Set, England had a high demand for tea that they exchanged opium for silver in order to get tea and the demand became so much that this caused conflict between them and other countries.
Therefore, the author's viewpoint in this excerpt is that England's demand for tea cause conflict around the world.
