Need Help really quick please. 1. (4 points) Read the passage below from “George Washington’s Farewell Address” and select the correct multiple-choice answer.

“To the efficacy and permanency of your Union, a government for the whole is indispensable. No alliances, however strict, between the parts can be an adequate substitute. They must inevitably experience the infractions and interruptions which all alliances in all times have experienced. Sensible of this momentous truth, you have improved upon your first essay by the adoption of a Constitution of government better calculated than your former for an intimate Union and for the efficacious management of your common concerns. This government, the offspring of our own choice uninfluenced and unawed, adopted upon full investigation and mature deliberation, completely free in its principles, in the distribution of its powers uniting security with energy, and containing within itself a provision for its own amendment, has a just claim to your confidence and your support.”

Washington stresses the importance of “a government for the whole.” He acknowledges a counterclaim for his position. There will be conflicting priorities between different parts of the country.
Does Washington effectively rebut (disprove) the counterclaim in the passage above? Change the answer you select below to red font.
A) Yes, because he states that alliances can be a substitute for government.
B) No, because he states that alliances can be a substitute for government.
C) Yes, because he states that the Constitution can be amended to meet the country’s needs.
D) No, because he states that the Constitution can be amended to meet the country’s needs.

"C"

Explanation:

George Washington's language is ambiguous in this text. At least to me. I have a degree in Economics. A wild guess is "C".

Because my recollection and understanding were Washington believed that the Constitution could be amended. Furthermore, using a process of elimination; A. is wrong because he never makes the claim that alliances are substitutes for the government. B.  Can't be either. I am leaning toward "C" and possibly D. In terms of probability, however, I lean toward C.

➕❎➕➕➖➗❌✖✔❗❗❗❗❗❗i dont understend you

what: when quoting a source, use the author’s words verbatim, or word-for-word. this means you shouldn’t change any grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. put quotations around the words to tell your reader where the quote begins and where it ends.

you also need to acknowledge the author. for example, if using mla format for your research paper, you should have in-text citations with the author’s name and page number listed at the end of each quote.

when: use quotations to provide concrete examples to support your claims. using direct quotations is a great way to build your credibility on the subject. it’s also a good idea to quote your source when the author states things in a powerful way. if you think he or she said it best, then use the exact words to share the ideas.

example: in the short story “a jury of her peers”, mrs. hale compares mrs. wright to her caged bird, saying “she—come to think of it, she was kind of like a bird herself. real sweet and pretty, but kind of timid and—fluttery. how—she—did—change” (glaspell).

paraphrasing

what: paraphrasing differs from quoting because you restate the passage in your own words. since you don’t use the author’s words, you don’t need to use quotation marks. however, you still need to acknowledge the author for his or her ideas.

when paraphrasing a text, you should communicate the full meaning of the text; don’t change the meaning. it can be a condensed version of the text, or it could end up being longer than the source it’s paraphrasing.

when: you use paraphrasing when you take notes, or explain a chart or diagram to someone. paraphrasing highlight the important parts of a larger text. it also allows you to simplify the ideas for your readers.

example:

original: “it was no ordinary thing that called her away–it was probably further from ordinary than anything that had ever happened in dickson county. but what her eye took in was that her kitchen was in no shape for leaving: her bread all ready for mixing, half the flour sifted and half unsifted” (glaspell).

paraphrase: as mrs. hales walks around mrs. wright’s home, she notices that the kitchen is in disarray as if she was in the middle of baking bread (glaspell).
