Read the passage. while pets were verboten in the hotel, we found a way to avoid the rule by putting our puppy in a garment bag. of course, we left the zipper open so that the poor pup could breathe. unfortunately, that also meant that he could yip and bark. needless to say, we were no longer allowed to stay at that particular hotel. which clues from the text are most for determining the meaning of verboten? select two options. “to avoid the rule” “in a garment bag” “the poor pup could breathe” “he could yip and bark” “no longer allowed to stay”

The answer is:

“to avoid the rule”

“no longer allowed to stay”

Verboten means forbidden, especially by an authority. As a consequence, the phrases chosen encourage the understanding of the word in context because  they are related to explicit regulations or principles governing behavior. For example, the expression "to avoid the rule" by hiding the puppy in a bag specifically implies that the word verboten is a prohibition. Finally, the fact that the people were unauthorized to stay at the hotel confirms the dog was discovered and hotel's refusal to accept pets.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
