Question

fill in the blanks to explain why emma edmonds stopped posing as frank thompson. emma edmonds spying until she c discovered to leave the army. s continued identity as a believed the war ended.

Explanation:

To determine the correct word, we analyze the context. Emma Edmonds was a Civil War spy who posed as Frank Thompson. The sentence structure and historical context suggest we need a word that fits the timeline of her actions. "continued" makes sense as she continued spying until circumstances (like needing to leave due to health or discovery risks) led her to leave, and then later revealed her identity. The other options: "discovered" doesn't fit the flow of continuing actions, and "believed" is semantically off here. So the correct word from the dropdown (assuming the sentence is "Emma Edmonds ____ spying until she...") should be "continued".

Answer:

continued
