Answer:
At the end of the story, each character is going to the roof because the entire building was on fire.
Explanation:
"Uprising" is a novel written by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The story is based on the true events of "The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire."
The novel has three main characters– Bella, Yetta, and Jane. When the building catches fire, in the novel, everyone rushes towards the stairs to reach the roof to escape the fire. Some try to use escalators and some stairs. But the fire was fierce enough to consume everyone. The novel had only one survivor– Bella.
Therefore, each character in the novel is rushing towards the roof to escape the fire.
The correct answer is C.
The central idea of this passage is that the US needs to grant its black population freedom and equality.
Douglass makes the argument that this country cannot reach its maximum potential if a good portion of the population is oppressed. He compares the oppression of African-Americans in the United States to cutting off the right arm of every soldier going to war -- senseless and dangerous.
He in a very indirect way appeals to the readers emotions through the use of charged words. For example:
<span>1-The first charged word Jefferson makes use of is liberty when he takes notice that all men deserve “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” (142).</span>
2- A word with strong connotations is justice when he writes: “We have appealed to their native justice” (144)
<span>3- Honor is the final charged word Jefferson uses when he declares the signers of the <span>Declaration </span>“pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor” (144)</span>
