Explanation:

This question is asking us to mix the second and the third conditionals. This can be done to show how a distant past action influences actions today. All sentences using this kind of mixed conditional are hypothetical, meaning the speaker knows that what he is talking about can no longer happen.

Let's form examples with the second, third, and mixed conditionals to compare:

- Second: I would be so happy if James showed up today. → would / simple past

- Third: I would have been so happy last week if James had showed up. → would + have + past participle / past perfect

- Mixed: I would be happy today if James had given me my present last week. → would / past perfect

Notice that, in the last case, we use the past perfect to talk about a distant action in the past, and the auxiliary "would" to refer to an effect in the present.

Reread this portion of the excerpted text from common sense. men of passive tempers look somewhat lightly over the offenses of britain, and, still hoping for the best, are apt to call out, come, we shall be friends again for all this. but examine the passions and feelings of mankind. bring the doctrine of reconciliation to the touchstone of nature, and then tell me, whether you can hereafter love, honor, and faithfully serve the power that hath carried fire and sword into your land? if you cannot do all these, then are you only deceiving yourselves, and by your delay bringing ruin upon posterity. your future connection with britain, whom you can neither love nor honor, will be forced and unnatural, and being formed only on the plan of present convenience, will in a little time fall into a relapse more wretched than the first. what key concept about the relationship between an abusive government and its citizens does paine want readers to understand? use evidence from the text to support your response. your response should be one to two complete paragraphs.
