Answer:
2. He accepted the decision of the proprietor and resolved to solve his problem in another way.
Explanation:
Booker T Washington's "Up From Slavery," tells the author's life of being a slave and more, covering more than 40 years of his life. The autobiography would become a crucial part of the slave narrative in the world of literature.
In the given passage taken from Chapter 4 of the autobiography, Washington recounts how he had tried all means to repay the debt he owed to the school. And though he found a ten-dollar bill, his decision to give the money to the proprietor of the restaurant would make him unable to pay off that debt. Doing the right and moral thing, Washington accepted the decision of the proprietor to not give the money to him. And instead, he decided he would work things on his own, finding another way to resolve the debt.
Thus, the correct answer is option 2.
I would say this is a research study. There are no statistics, there is no statement about an expert involved, and it is not a fact but an opinion. So, I think it is a premise for a research study.
Hope that helps.
Answer:
The central argument of "An Indian Father's Plea" is:
A. That the teacher needs to respect Wind-Wolf's culture and take that into account when teaching him.
Explanation:
In his letter to his son's teacher, Robert Lake (Medicine Grizzlybear) explains that his 5-year-old boy, Wind-Wolf, no longer wants to go to school. At school, he is made fun of for his hair, his name, and the mere fact of his being a Native American. Besides that, his teacher has also labeled him as a slow learner.
Lake explains that his son is not slow. Wind-Wolf has been exposed to his own culture as well as the culture of other tribes since he was very young. He has learned how to count, how to observe the changes in nature, how ceremonies are carried out, among other things. Wind-Wolf is a smart young child, able to say his name in seven different languages.
What Lake wants is for Wind-Wolf's teacher to understand, accept, and respect his son's origins and culture. He is more than willing to help the teacher, in case he/she lacks the experience to deal with Native American students.
