The correct answer is A.

Hally is a seventeen-year-old white boy who has a poor relationship with his parents. His father is an alcoholic and his mother is too submissive to stand up to her husband.

Sam is a black man that works as a waiter in the St. George's Park Tea Room. He is compassionate man who really gets Hally's problems with his family and truly cares for him.

Sam's goal in life is to help Hally grow into someone who is proud of himself, and that is why he builds him the kite.

Answer:

Explanation:

In his letter from Birmingham jail, Martin Luther King tried to persuade the audience that his non violence belief is a good move to act against racism and oppression.

1. King directly addresses the audience which shows the clarity in his views and actions. He out across his points making several relative points and people understood them clearly and his letter got a lot of attention.

2. King used many allusions to prove his point. An allusion is used by an author referring something in his work to some historic or literary, or cultural details from outside the work. He took instances from Bible, stating what Jesus had preached. He also referred to Mahatma Gandhi who also believed in non violence and India got Independence. All these allusions are very effective as they convince the audience in proving his point as right.

3. King used his words to inspire people the most. It inspired the African-Americans to fight against the whites for their freedom. He said "We will reach the goal of freedom in Birmingham and all over the nation, because the goal of America is freedom". He also gives them hope that things are on their side and they will achieve their goals.
