Read the excerpt below from cooper's essay to answer the question.
the earnest well trained christian young woman, as a teacher, as a home-maker, as wife, mother, or silent influence even, is as potent a missionary agency among our people as is the theologian; and i claim that at the present stage of our development in the south she is even more important and necessary. let us then, here and now, recognize this force and resolve to make the most of it--not the boys less, but the girls more (p 79).
in the excerpt above, the word our refers to

hello!

"hidesato showed not the least sign of fear. he tried to calm the dragon king: don't be afraid. i shall surely kill the centipede."

hope this .

what are you

hey there,

your answer is a) today we hope for clear skies.

let's look at the word(s) progressive verb. progressive means its happening right now. it is not going to happen and it has not already happened. it is happening right now. the sentence "today we hope" in option a is an example of a progressing verb. they are hoping right now. options b, c and d are not progressing verbs. they contain the words have, roared and will be. those words tell us that it has either happened or will happen. a is your answer.

best of luck,
