Read the excerpt from Pat Mora’s essay "The Leader in the Mirror." I hoped that most of the students were going to enroll in col

lege. The confetti would be for their private celebrations, those solitary moments when they had passed a test that worried them, finished a difficult paper at 2 A.M., found a summer internship. Sometimes, even when no one else is around, it’s important to celebrate when we have struggled and succeeded—to sprinkle a little confetti on our own heads. Now read the excerpt from the article "Career Planning for High Schoolers." About two-thirds of high school graduates from the class of 2013 enrolled in college that fall, according to BLS: 42 percent in baccalaureate (4-year) colleges and 24 percent in 2-year schools. Of the remaining one-third of 2013 graduates, who opted not to go to college, 74 percent entered the labor force. College-bound high school graduates may not know it, but BLS data show that wages are usually higher, and unemployment rates lower, for people who continue their education after high school. How are the two excerpts different? The essay encourages students to celebrate small accomplishments during college, while the article uses facts and numbers to show how many students attend college. The essay uses facts and numbers to show the importance of attending college, while the article shares personal examples of students in college. The essay is written by someone who does not think college is important, while the article is written by someone who encourages college education. The essay is written by someone who encourages college education, while the article is written by someone who encourages students to enter the labor force.

Read the excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr.’s "I Have a Dream” speech.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The first answer is the only answer. This parallel construction emphasizes that time has passed; no progress has been made. Look at the language. Read it carefully. Phrases like sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. Does this sound like there is anything that has moved forward when the language suggests that nothing has occurred since 1861.

Another example ... lives on lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. The poetry reflects and states while one segment of society has become rich, the other segment has not. Nothing has been gained.

B: Where does it even hint at B? Where does it say that the freedom is effortless?  Nowhere. Not B.

C: He doesn't advocate any common goal, not in this section. The purpose of this message is to point out that the colored have been short changed.

D: Again, he does not ask that the colored should strive for wealth. He wants change, not easily obtained wealth. Not D.
