Read the excerpt from common sense. “every day wears out the little remains of kindred between us and them, and can there be any reason to hope, that as the relationship expires, the affection will increase, or that we shall agree better, when we have ten times more and greater concerns to quarrel over than ever? ” the word “expires” tells the reader that paine believed the colonies’ separation from britain was inevitable. concerning. dangerous. fixable.

inevitable

Explanation:

Something that "expires", comes to an end. It is often used with a certain length of time. For example this term is very used for food, when reading a food recipient, it tells the expiration date, once this date is reached, the food can't be eaten, it can be harmful for health. The same happens in this excerpt, the separation from Britain is something that can't be stopped, after some time Britain and the Colonies are going to be divided.  

i think the answer is c

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )

i'm really rally sorry if i'm incorrect, but if i'm hope this ! : )
