I believe the correct answer is B. It evokes an image that helps the reader understand the current racial and political situation in Brixton.

This allusion doesn't explain the reasons why something happened. It just draws a parallel between two events, based on the fact that the African people were heavily oppressed by the majority and the political system itself. The Second Boer War was a war that Britain fought to consolidate its colonial supremacy, whereas the Brixton uprising was a riot led by poor, discriminated African-Caribbeans in London. Both cases included the oppressed Africans and the British oppressors.

The summary of my observations about Mr. Great Heart from the text is:

He is courageous
He is fearless
He is strong.

<h3>What is Characterization?</h3>

This refers to the role of a character in a given text that helps to advance the plot of the story so as to show their dynamic or static roles.

Hence, we can see that from the narration in the text about Mr. Great Heart, he is characterized as a fearless and strong man who is a guide to a group of children.

He shows his courage when he gives the lion a punch that brought it to its knees and also admonished the children on their fear and how they cower behind him in the face of danger.

Who is your hero?

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

My hero is my mom because she has been there for me when no one else would. She helped me through thick and thin. She helped me when i was upset. She gave birth to me so shes one of my closest family members.If i could live anywhere in the world it would probably be a small town that way if i ever needed something i know someone would be there for me. My biggest fear is loosing the people i love the most. Without them i don't think i would be who i am today and i might not have the things i have today. My favorite family vacation was when we went to Disney World. My brother accidentally spit milkshake out of his nose. It was really funny although it hurt his nose. One thing i would wanna change about myself is my age. I wanna be older so i don't have school and its much easier. Something that really makes me angry is when people are rude for no reason they basically just being judgy. One thing that motivates me to work hard is being able to work at my own pace. That way i know what i can get done and what i can get done in a certain period of time. In school these days its more about passing and less about learning and we really need to change that. My favorite thing about basketball is that theres not a certain time frame that you have to do do work for. Also basketball is something i love doing aswell.
