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.
Faizula is a wonderful man with a big heart of kindness. He is very faithful with his religion and begins to follow it strictly. But this kind hearted soul sometimes forgets the littlest things in life. When he encountered the man selling roses, it symbolizes the simplicity of one's life. It takes one act of kindness to create a loop.
