Question

1. are seeking a) no change b) could seek c) would be seeking d) sought 75. forms a) no change b) is forming c) has formed d) form 76. divide a) no change b) debunk c) dally d) debate 77. which of the following choices represents the clearest and most concise way to convey all of the information in the sentence? to invoke alien law when it agrees with one’s own thinking, and ignore it otherwise, is not reasoned decision making, but sophistry.

Explanation:

1. The sentence refers to the past actions of the Declaration signers, so the simple past tense "sought" is correct instead of the present continuous tense.
2. The subject "the principles of the law and comity of nations" is plural, so the plural verb "form" matches the subject.
3. The context discusses a sharp disagreement among U.S. jurists, so "divide" (NO CHANGE) is the correct term, as "debunk", "dally", and "debate" do not fit the meaning of a sharp split.
