Question

read the excerpt from thomas paines \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? paines use of phrases such as \little remains,\
elationship expires,\ and \quarrel over\ suggest that his purpose is to repair the relationship between britain and the colonies inspire the colonies to progress without british support evoke a war between britain and the colonies address british issues within the colonies

Explanation:

Thomas Paine's Common Sense argued for American independence. Phrases like "little remains," "relationship expires," and "quarrel over" emphasize that the colonial-British relationship is broken and worsening, not fixable. This frames the idea that the colonies would be better off separating and progressing without British control, rather than repairing ties, inciting war directly, or addressing British internal issues in colonies.

Answer:

B. inspire the colonies to progress without British support
