Complete the following paragraph from an email with the correct form of prendre, apprendre, or comprendre.
World War II was the most terrible war in history. Military deaths are estimated at some fifteen million, and at least as many civilians were killed. If deaths linked indirectly to the war, from disease, hunger, and other causes, are included, the number of victims might reach as high as forty million. Most of Europe and significant parts of Asia were devastated. Yet the end of so terrible a war
brought little opportunity for relaxation. The dawn of the atomic age and the dramatic end it brought to the war made people conscious that another major war might extinguish humanity. Everything depended on concluding a stable peace, but even as the fighting ended, conflicts among the victors made the prospects of a lasting peace doubtful. a. The dawn of the atomic age made people around the world conscious of the horrors of war. b. World War II was the most terrible war in history. c. World War II, with deaths in the millions in fighting and indirect causes, as well as the devastation of countries, did not bring peace because of conflicts among the victors. d. The dawning of the atomic age, plus the consciousness of the people, assured us that World War II would be our last large scale war.
