Answer from: Redeyestudio53

C. A swelling movement sweeping others in a shared direction

Explanation:

This can be understood in two ways. One, by understanding the statement within its context and then trying to understand what the word could mean; and second, with the help of substituting the meaning of the word, adjusted in the original sentence, and relating it with the context to see if it makes sense.

Understanding the Context

The sentence talks about a popular opinion being effectively changed. which remained as it was for a long time, since the change was 'long overdue.' Clearly it requires a massive force to move or even budge a long established and popular opinion, and that massive force can be compared to the force that a wave (literal meaning implied) can exert, sweeping away all that comes before it, in its own direction. Option C matches this description of the wave, and hence is the correct answer.

Substituting the Meaning

"Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a swelling movement sweeping others in a shared direction of change that was long overdue."

Here, we can observe that the meaning remains the same and makes sense, and hence C is the correct option.

hmm, sadly there is no dialogue. there is no place in the story where he is talking to anyone. it's more of just describing what he eats and where he sleeps. you have to become anne frank, give details of where you are, what other folks look like, how the environment is. have a little bit of dialogue tell of what people are specifically saying. anne frank talked about her entire household including the people, the objects, the lighting, the food they ate, and even the smell in the air. there has to be more to your diary entries, the whole story in its current state is only about peter van daan, the food, the sounds, and where he sleeps. also he seems to be writing only once a year yet more than that happened from day to day. for a friend, i can you write it out, if you want.
