Question

select the correct answer. read paragraph 3. (3) did that mean, my friends, that someone would come into this world without having had an opportunity, of course, to have hit one lick of work, should be born with more than it and all of its children and childrens children could ever dispose of, but that another one would have to be born into a life of starvation? which choice could most effectively replace the phrase hit one lick of? a. performed any b. defeated any c. tasted any d. solved any

Explanation:

The phrase "hit one lick of" is used in the context of work. "Performed any" makes the most sense as it implies doing or carrying out work. "Defeated any" is about winning against something, which doesn't fit the work context. "Tasted any" is more about flavor or experience in a non - work sense. "Solved any" is about finding solutions, not the general act of doing work.

Answer:

A. performed any
