This was what I got when I was checking up "misfortune" in one dictionary. Now I understand what "misfortune" means. But the problem is I don't know what "instance" means here. It's obviously not as the same as that in the phrase "for instance".

She pursued the cause closest to her heart: famine. I've checked it up in the dictionary, however, I don't get it still. Can somebody help me???? Many thanx.

The dollar is the unit of currency in the US. Is it suitable to omit the first "The" ?? Can I add "the" before the word " currency "?????
