Northern pacific ocean—scientists have discovered a new, currently unnamed island in the northern pacific ocean. the small island is located in an isolated area between hawaii and the marshall islands. scientists believe that an erupting volcano formed the island. the new land mass measures roughly two square miles and rises nearly ten feet above sea level.

2 islands form when magma inside the earth spills onto the earth’s surface. once magma hits the planet’s surface, it is called lava. the erupted lava then cools and hardens to form rocks and land. scientists believe the volcano that created this new island has been erupting under the ocean for hundreds of years. nevertheless, the lava has only recently risen above the water’s surface to form land. scientists think the new island will expand as the volcano continues to erupt.

what is the purpose of this article?

d) to entertain

A) to inform

Explanation:

The purpose of this article is to inform. It is an article that describes something that has happened, how it happened, what where the causes for it, where it is located, and a description of the island. This is all information for the public, but also for the scientists, as well as for all the people that would use the ocean waters for traveling in this part of the world. Mapping the new island is crucial, as if it is not mapped, it can result in some ships hitting in it because they will not be aware of it, and there might be lot of victims because of it. Also, the geologists would be very interested in this information, as they will have an island where they can examine and see with their own eyes how new crust is formed, and how islands develop.

peasants’ war, (1524–25) peasant uprising in germany inspired by changes brought by the reformation, peasants in western and southern germany invoked   divine law to demand agrarian rights and freedom from oppression by nobles and landlords. as the uprising spread, some peasant groups organized armies. although the revolt was supported huldrych zwingli and thomas müntzerits condemnation by martain luther contributed to its defeat, principally by the army of the swabian league. some 100,000 peasants were killed. reprisals and increased restrictions discouraged further attempts to improve the peasants’ plight.

i think it would be " a" i might be wrong tho

hello!

according to the passage the most suitable options are two. the first one is "by leading the aef to victory in several key battles" like the battle of saint- mihiel and the battle of cantigny mentioned in the passage you copied here. the second one is "by the aef and allied forces defeat germany" since the passage says that his army destroy the german resistance in the meuse- argonne offensive. and also, "by insisting that the aef operate as an independent force".
