Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." In our life and death struggle for justice we have turned to the

court of last resort: the American people. And the people are ruling in our favor. As a result, grape sales keep falling. We have witnessed truckloads of grapes being dumped because no one would stop to buy them. As demand drops, so do prices and profits. The growers are under tremendous economic pressure. We are winning, but there is still much hard work ahead of us. I hope that you will join our struggle. Which sentence clearly states the purpose of Chavez’s speech? "And the people are ruling in our favor."
"As a result, grape sales keep falling."
"As demand drops, so do prices and profits."
"I hope that you will join our struggle."

Chavez's goal of his speech is to get the American people to join his cause. The sentence that most clearly states his purpose is "I hope that you will join our struggle." Grape sales falling and demand dropping are reasons why Chavez wants people to join his cause.

The excerpt shows why Chavez needs that action has to be taken and it clearly underlines how it is to be taken: through the unity and resistance. His purpose is shown as a collective thought that one will prevail. The correct answer is the last option.

The imagery of “a hopeless battle” helps to develop the theme that group thinking limits man’s potential because it <span>depicts the collective society as a destructive force that represses the independent thinker.
As you can see in the excerpt, there were a few men who protested and warned against the danger, but nobody wanted to listen to them. Everyone just followed the crowd, even though the crowd was wrong, unlike those few smart men.

Dimas [21]

I agree with the statement because in the story, when Major Kovalyov loses his nose, the nose achieves a higher rank that him - State Councillor. Considering Kovalyov is an ambitious official, he feels ashamed due to the fact that the nose has climbed higher in rank, and for his physical appearance. Without a nose, he cannot move up in hierarchy or join in marriage favorably.

Choose the sentence that contains a comma splice.
RideAnS [48]
First of all, you need to know what a comma splice is. A comma splice, also known as a run-on sentence, means that two or more sentences are mixed into one large sentence but with improper punctuation. So, a comma is inserted where a period should be to separate two or more unrelated sentences.
Having this in mind, the correct answer is C. <span>As I sat on a bench and drank my coffee, a seagull passed over, he relieved himself on my head. 
There should be a period between the words 'over' and 'he.'
