It’s a possibility that more than one of the senses above is used in the excerpt, but the question asked to choose the PRIMARY sense, meaning the sense that is written about and used the most. Here’s a slice of the excerpt for you to read.

“Come and show me another city with lifted head SINGING so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning.”

Pay attention to the capitalized word. Which sense does it appeal to? That’s your answer.

the speech this question is referring to is president kennedy's special message to the congress on urgent national needs, may 25, 1961

kennedy responds in a very direct and concrete way to those thinking that communism is a positive system:

"yet their aggression is more often concealed than open. they have fired no missiles; and their troops are seldom seen. they send arms, agitators, aid, technicians and propaganda to every troubled area. but where fighting is required, it is usually done by others--by guerrillas striking at night, by assassins striking alone--assassins who have taken the lives of four thousand civil officers in the last twelve months in vietnam alone--by subversives and saboteurs and insurrectionists, who in some cases control whole areas inside of independent nations." (kennedy)

president kennedy presents communism as cowardly, as a hidden and treacherous weapon that strikes from the shadows like thieves, he represents the system as not even being capable of showing and open and overt attack or confrontation. to finish up the response, he expresses that the system attacks even a country's idependence and freedom.

he correct answer is choice c. promoters of ufc events were eager to work with state athletic commissions, without public pressure being a necessary inducement.
