Read the passage from "The Book of Martha.” She had, she remembered, been sitting at her computer, wrapping up one more day's work on her fifth novel. The writing had been going well for a change, and she'd been enjoying it. For hours, she'd been spilling her new story onto paper in that sweet frenzy of creation that she lived for. Finally, she had stopped, turned the computer off, and realized that she felt stiff. Her back hurt. She was hungry and thirsty, and it was almost five A. M. She had worked through the night. Amused in spite of her various aches and pains, she got up and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.

What does the author reveal about Martha in this passage?

a. She enjoys working late at night.
b. She appreciates the freedom of living alone.
c. She loves creating and writing stories.
d. She always finds her work easy to complete.

C

Explanation:

despite her back hunt hurting and her being hungry it mostly talks about her writing and how much she wrote 4 hours and been spilling her new story on to pay for the sweet Franzia creation she live for so it's mostly about her creating and writing stories . Not that she enjoys working late at night not that she appreciates the freedom of living alone and not that she always finds her easy to complete she loves creating and writing stories is your answer

C on edge!

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
