Answer:

In the eighth paragraph of the piece "Quilt of a Country", the author - Anna Quindlen, after assessing the sociological composition of America, emphasizes its unity despite foundational differences and describes the act of criticizing others as pride.

He supports this claim by mentioning that the casualties from 9-11 include various groups of people.

It can also be interpreted that he suggests that if tragic events like wars and terrorism can bring us together, how much more united should we be during peaceful times?

Cheers

Bond [7527]
In Option C, Paine argues that America would have been more prosperous without European interference, particularly from Britain. He suggests that British control was a barrier to America's true potential for growth. Options A and B present viewpoints that America depends on Britain for success; Option A claims that America's well-being is linked to its relationship with Britain, while Option B likens the colonies to a child that should only accept milk, implying they don’t deserve anything beyond Britain's support. This idea is viewed by Paine as ridiculous, though it doesn’t reinforce his argument effectively. Option D highlights that while America will always engage in trade, Britain’s interests are solely driven by self-consumption, which fails to provide robust evidence.
