Thanks.
2) The Olympics Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek (world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month)
c) world when they proclaimed a sacred truce for the festival month
d) world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival
the given answer is C? Why not D? is that only because D is in passive voice? What does the "they" mean in C? pugnacious states?
