Freedom has been a very important topic in different centuries as it is the basic need of any civilization. America has a history that talks about the necessity of freedom and why it is important for people.

Ralph Waldo Emerson: was one of the prominent writers of American literature who was against slavery. For him <em>"Freedom comes from nonconformity and solitude."</em>

Henry David Thoreau: he was American Naturalist and  a very important Transcendentalist for whom,<em> “absolute freedom is found by rejecting market society and retreating into the wilderness”. </em>

Harriet Jacobs: slave writer who made people understand how miserable a slave's life is especially a female slave. For her Freedom means, <em>"having individual liberties, but more importantly having the somatic rights to choose what happens to her body and who has a claim to it, if at all."</em>

ELEN [110]

In her poem, Shelly said that this king had a cold command. She also said "The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed" which suggests that this king often looked down on others, and felt superior. On the other hand, she states how passionate the sculptor was and how the pedestal states, "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings; Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!". Using both of these resources we can determine that the sculptor sees the king as a very powerful figure, and that he looks up to and cares about this ruler. In other words, Shelly believes that rulers are harsh and cold, while the sculptor of this statue believes that rulers are great and powerful.

The answer is D. We can conclude that the answer is not A because seconds after, the deer becomes scared after noticing the cameraman and leaves. The answer could not have been C, as it has nothing to do with the wind. B also is not likely the answer because the fact that the deer continued to eat moss on the ground shouldn't have anything to do with the wind ruining the cameraman's shot.....;)
