Read the excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech.

Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.

Why does Dr. King's allude to the Emancipation Proclamation in his speech?


A. The allusion reflects Dr. King's importance since it refers to another important figure in American history: President Lincoln.


B. The allusion demonstrates Dr. King's belief that equality was achieved with the Emancipation Proclamation.


C. The allusion reminds the audience that 100 years have passed since the Emancipation Proclamation, yet inequality still exists.


D. The allusion indicates to the audience that enslaving people was always illegal in the United States.

Read the excerpt "Primary Lessons" from Silent Dancing: A Partial Remembrance of a Puerto Rican Childhood.

But, of course, what I feared was not language, but loss of freedom. At school there would be no playing, no stories, only lessons. It would not matter if I did not understand a word, and I would not be allowed to make up my own definitions. I would have to learn silence. I would have to keep my wild imagination in check. Feeling locked into my stiffly starched uniform, I only sensed all this. I guess most children can intuit their loss of childhood’s freedom on that first day of school. It is separation anxiety too, but mother is just the guardian of the “playground” of our early childhood.

Which word does the pronoun "it" refer to in the sentence? A kettle is a metal container used to boil water. Some kettles go on the stovetop, while some can be plugged into an electrical outlet. A kettle is filled with liquid, usually water, and placed on a heat source, so that the liquid inside of it will begin to boil. Once the water boils, steam is forced through two small holes in the spout of the kettle, causing a high-pitched whistling sound.

Answers

Answer:

kettle

Explanation:

A pronoun is a word that is used to denote a noun to avoid the repetition of the noun. The noun instead of which the pronoun is used is said to be an antecedent.  

In the given excerpt, 'kettle' is the noun. In every new sentence, the noun 'kettle' has been repeated. Instead of the repetition of the noun 'kettle', the pronoun 'it' can be used. For singular noun 'kettle', the pronoun 'it' will be used and for plural noun 'kettles', the pronoun 'they' will be used.

Answer:

In To Kill a Mockingbird, there was a moment when Jem cordially invited Walter Cunningham to his house to eat dinner after Jem's sister, Scout, rudely informs Miss Caroline on Walter's financial status and how he was in severe poverty to exchange money. According to page 25 it quotes, "'There's some folks who don't eat like us,' she whispered fiercely, 'but you ain't called on to contradict 'em at the table when they don't. That boy's yo' comp'ny and if he wants to eat up the table cloth, you let him, you hear?'" After Scout taunts Walter for pouring syrup on his vegetables, Calpurnia becomes furious, stating that there are some children who dwell through different lifestyles that Scout may be aberrant to. According to page 30 it quotes, "'You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view--until you crawl into his skin and walk around it."' Atticus, Scout's father, teaches her a lesson that she shouldn't judge another's motives or actions because they probably have a differing perception on what they prefer liking or doing. Scout shouldn't despise Walter just because he may be poor or may have uncommon interests, because he may see it in a contrasting perspective.
