Read the passage from Eleanor Roosevelt’s speech on the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
I should like to comment briefly on the amendments proposed by the Soviet delegation. The language of these amendments has been dressed up somewhat, but the substance is the same as the amendments which were offered by the Soviet delegation in committee and rejected after exhaustive discussion. Substantially the same amendments have been previously considered and rejected in the Human Rights Commission. . . .
I feel bound to say that I think perhaps it is somewhat of an imposition on this Assembly to have these amendments offered again here, and I am confident that they will be rejected without debate.
What is the purpose of the passage?
to encourage the UN General Assembly to refuse to discuss the suggested changes
to express doubt that the General Assembly will give suggested changes the attention they deserve
to express frustration that the General Assembly keeps rejecting the Soviet delegation’s suggestions
to teach the history of the General Assembly’s addition of amendments to the UDHR
Final answer:

Suppose Chuck and Barbara agree to purchase a vacant lot from Steve, the legal owner. Two days later, Steve's father calls and informs them that Steve has changed his mind, as many precocious 16-year olds are apt to do. At the time the contract was signed, Steve did not reveal his age. What are Chuck and Barbara's options?
Answer:
Accept Steve's decision and look for another property
Explanation:
In the vast majority of contracts for the purchase and sale of lots, fines are usually provided for both parties in case of withdrawal. Since this type of penalty is in accordance with the law, if the seller withdraws from the sale after the contract has been signed, the buyer must accept this decision, provided that the seller pays the fine, the same applies if the buyer give up the purchase after you have signed the contract. For this reason, in the case reported in the question, we can conclude that what Chuck and Barbara must do is accept Steve's decision to give up the sale of the lot, but Steve must bear the withdrawal penalty.

Although most international business is conducted in English, levels of comprehension can vary. How can you enhance your oral communication skills in international environments? Check all that apply.
a. Follow up in writing.b. Teach English phrases.c. Smile when appropriate.d. Speak loudly.e. Accept blame.f. Encourage accurate feedback.g. Assume comprehension.
Answer:
c. Smile when appropriate.
d. Speak loudly.
e. Encourage accurate feedback.
Explanation:
It is crucial to have effective communication skills as it equips the speaker with the ability to interact with the customers, colleagues, and clients. The above features would surely help develop and enhance the oral communication skills that include speaking or conveying thoughts loudly, smiling when appropriate would reflect the speaker's confidence, and encouraging accurate feedback would assist in improving verbal communication skills. Following up in writing has not much to do with oral communication. Teaching English phrases should instead be learning phrases in order to enhance the skills. Accepting blame, assuming comprehension will not work in international environments as it may mislead or negate the individual efforts.
Final answer:
To enhance oral communication skills in international business, follow up in writing, encourage accurate feedback, smile when appropriate, and check for understanding rather than assuming it. Avoid speaking loudly and be willing to accept blame for any misunderstandings.
Explanation:
To enhance one's oral communication skills in international environments, several strategies can be considered. It is essential to follow up in writing to confirm what has been discussed orally, ensuring clarity and understanding. Smiling when appropriate can help to convey friendliness and openness, creating a positive atmosphere for communication. Encouraging accurate feedback is another key element, as it allows you to adjust your language use and clarity based on the listener's needs and comprehension level. However, one should avoid speaking loudly as an attempt to improve understanding, as it might be perceived as rude or aggressive. Instead, speak clearly and at a moderate pace to aid understanding. Accepting blame when misunderstandings occur can smooth over communication issues and preserve business relationships. Lastly, do not assume comprehension but rather check for understanding regularly by asking questions or inviting questions from others.
These techniques contribute to effective communication by ensuring that all parties are on the same page and by fostering an environment of mutual respect and active engagement. By engaging with others in this attentive and collaborative way, communicators can navigate the nuances of language proficiency, cultural diversity, and professional etiquette, which are all crucial in international business contexts.

Read the excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's "I Have a Dream" speech.
[1] I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
[2] Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
[3] But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free; one hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination; one hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity; one hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land.
Which phrase from the text provides the best context clue to determine the meaning of "manacles" in paragraph 3?
One hundred years later
Chains of discrimination
Lonely island of poverty
Vast ocean of material prosperity
Hey!
--------------------------------------------------
Paragraph:
[3] But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free; one hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination; one hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity; one hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land.
--------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
A manacle is a piece of rope or chain that is used to tie a person's ankles and hands so they couldn't move. In the paragraph it says "Manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination". He used this line to compare the laws of segregation to the way of slaves getting tied.
--------------------------------------------------
Answer:
b) Chains of discrimination
--------------------------------------------------
Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
Final answer:
The best context clue to understand 'manacles' in Dr. King's speech is the phrase 'chains of discrimination,' ( second option) as it suggests a similar concept of restraint relating to the segregation and discrimination faced by African Americans.
Explanation:
The phrase in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's "I Have a Dream" speech that provides the best context clue to determine the meaning of "manacles" in paragraph 3 is "chains of discrimination."
The words "manacles" and "chains" are used in close proximity, suggesting a similar concept of restraint or bondage. Given the context of the speech, which addresses issues of freedom and inequality, it is clear that "manacles" metaphorically refers to the restrictions and constraints imposed by segregation and discrimination that African Americans faced during that time.
