Read the excerpt from a speech petitioning people to adopt animals in need.

i am here today to persuade you to see the benefit of adopting your next pet from the animal shelter instead of purchasing it from a pet store. it is crucial to see the value in adopting animals and hopefully putting pet stores out of business. the health and well-being of our animal friends is what is at stake here. many people think it would be fun to get a cute designer animal from a boutique pet shop, but once we all know the truth behind their practices, we will be lining up at the shelter to fall in love with an animal in need. your new dog may not be a purebred dog with official papers and a customized small size, but you will know that your animal is healthy and eternally grateful that you provided him with a warm home.

which ideas from the excerpt would be most appropriate to include in a summary? select two options.

many people want a designer dog from a boutique.
animals bred through pet shops suffer health problems.
people need to adopt animals instead of going to pet shops.
many people have a warm home and like animals.
more people need to decide to have pets in their homes.

Explanation:

The main ideas expressed in this excerpt are that the practices of pet shops are unethical and not good for the animals that they sell and that animals from shelters are grateful to have a warm home and truly have needs as well despite not being purebred.

The excerpt does not talk about people having warm homes, no does it say that more people in general need to decide to have pets.

covert: hidden or secret

candid: truthful and straightforward

what i get from these phrases is covert means undercover or underground and that's where the flower is in april. on the other hand, may is the month where flowers start to bloom and thats the reason why candid is being used as a word to describe the blossoming period of a flower.

hope this answer you.

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.
