So i have a very important question with the normal rules: No cussin, nothing inappropriate(bc i will report) and i you answer nicely ill mark you brainliest! Worth 45 points ! PLS HURRY! so here's the question, Who said this quote and to whom was it said? Also explain the meaning of this quote

“If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, none other will find him here. . . we will find him here. What then? If he be like to die, he had better do it, and decrease the surplus population.”

After Scrooge asks the Ghost of Christmas Present what the future holds for Tiny Tim, the Spirit’s answer makes clear that Tiny Tim, without help, will soon die. The Ghost, for emphasis, uses one of Scrooge’s earlier quotes about what poor people should do, a statement which now makes Scrooge ashamed. Scrooge, like many readers, identifies with one individual more easily than with a group. Tiny Tim serves to create that connection for the reader, too.

hope it helps ☺️!

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.

the answer is a.

explanation:

the clause "looking toward the south" modifies "a funnel cloud." it's not really the cloud that's "looking," but grammatically, that clause is modifying the cloud.
