Read the excerpt from "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural ju

stice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? How does this rhetorical question contribute to the passage’s central idea? It encourages African Americans to discuss the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence. It reinforces the idea that the rights given to others are not extended to African Americans. It reveals that Douglass has an in-depth knowledge of the Declaration of Independence. It gives the rest of the speech importance by referring to a famous historical document.

The correct answer is B.

The rethorical question used in this excerpt from the speech "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” given by Frederick Douglass in 1852 serves to show African Americans how they are being denied the righ embodied in the Declaration of Independece.

It seeks to create awareness that, even though the Declaration of Independence declares that the rights should be applied to all, it is only the White Americans who enjoy and can fully enforce them.

Your question is incomplete because you have not provided the answer options, which are:

subject/verb agreement

pronoun reference

parallelism

Answer:

parallelism

Explanation:

Parallelism refers to the use of similar grammatical structure among sentences in a text, so that the sentences and clauses are built in an almost identical grammatical construction. In that matter, parallelism actually involves a balance of different grammatical categories; for instance:

<em>My cat Greta enjoys sleeping on my bed, eating all the time and hunting bugs in the garden. In the same way, my dog Pepa loves taking long naps, waiting to be fed and going for walks.</em>

Thus, both sentences are written with the same structure: subject plus verbs followed by gerunds with <em>-ing</em>.

elixir [45]
.org, .gov, .edu are usually the most reliable domains when it comes to dealing with english related assignments.

.org - means the website is from an organization, without the intention of selling commercial products.
.gov - is from the government so we know that this is reliable
