The correct answer is C) it conveys King’s beliefs that the goals of the Civil Rights movement are pure and just in the same way that America’s founding ideals are pure and just.

<em>The statement that best explains how the word “sacred” affects the meaning of the speech is: It conveys King’s beliefs that the goals of the Civil Rights movement are pure and just in the same way that America’s founding ideals are pure and just. </em>

In “A Letter from Birmingham Jail”, Martin Luther King Jr. uses wisely the word “sacred” because for him it represents something very cherished and valued. It is a strong belief he feels when compare the Civil Rights movement with the “heritage of the U.S. and the will of God”. For him, this is of the utmost importance and the term “sacred” is clear and profound.

Does anyone have any good revision techniques that aren’t too boring but work? I know it’s a big ask but I’m open to any ideas,
Romashka [77]
My memory is normally horrible. xD 
However, it does help to write things down. For formulas I assume you mean like math and science? I used to love going and buying that stack of sticky notes that's different colors and taking different color markers, and then like on a board or on the wall and color coding all my formulas, that made them easy to find. I also included the lesson and what page I found the formula on, that way if on a test or some thing you need information on it, it was easy to find. 

As for analyzing a piece of writing, if its on paper I usually use a highlighter, and if its on the computer you can make a power point or word document with pictures and notes, I used to illustrate out my notes. This is great for visual learners, if you're an audio learner create song lyrics using the information you need to know, pick an instrumental you like and put that song with your notes, hum it till you remember the lyrics. 

Just do some research on what type of learner you are and what's best suited for those type of people, then get creative and twist their ideas to suit you and your needs better.

Finding the Central Idea in a Passage
Verdich [7]

Answer:

A). Invisible ink isn’t really invisible at all.

Explanation:

The chief idea which the author aims to convey through the given passage would be that '<u>invisible ink is not actually invisible</u>.' This claim is substantiated through the descriptions asserting the type of inks(lemon juice, brown ink) that have been used to write such invisible content and also regarding how this invisible content can be visible(by holding the paper over candle's flame or using a chemical). This shows that the ink is not actually concealed completely. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
