Carrie felt the drag of desire for all that was new and pleasing in apparel for women. She noticed​ too, with a touch at the​ he

art, the fine ladies who elbowed and ignored her. They brushed past in utter disregard of her presence. They themselves were eagerly enlisted in the materials that the store contained. Carrie was not familiar with the appearance of her more fortunate sisters of the city. Neither had she before known the nature and appearance of the shop girls with whom she now compared poorly. Most of them were pretty with an air of independence and indifference that added a certain zest. Their clothes were​ neat, in many instances fine. Wherever she encountered the eye of one it was only to recognize in it a keen analysis of her own positiondashher individual shortcomings of dress and that shadow of manner which she thought must hang about her and make clear to all who and what she was. A flame of envy lighted in her heart. She realized in a dim way how much the city helddash​wealth, ​fashion, easedashevery adornment for women. She longed for dress and beauty with a whole heart.
Carrie​'s experience in the city shops makes her feel which of the​ following?

A.
envious
B.
excited
C.
angry
D.
hopeless

Passage A
The Tree
1. It was 390 feet tall. Nothing on earth could match it. It had stood as a slender sapling in the cool coastal​ air, perhaps moving slightly in a light​ breeze, on the very day Caesar​ (100 BCdash44 ​BC) finally decided to move against Britain. But all that happened a long way from the area that would be called California. Great leaders were born as the tree grew. And they died as the tree became stronger and taller. Wars came and​ went, as well as plagues and famine. There were great celebrations and deep mourning here and there over the earth. The tree lived through it all.

Passage B
One Solitary Life
2. He was born in an obscure​ village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in another obscure​ village, where he worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. He never had a family or owned a home. He never set foot inside a big city. He never traveled two hundred miles from the place He was born. He never wrote a​ book, or held an office. He did none of the things that usually accompany greatness.
3. While He was still a young​ man, the tide of popular opinion turned against Him. His friends deserted Him. He was turned over to His​ enemies, and went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed to a cross between two thieves. While He was​ dying, His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He haddashHis coat. When He was​ dead, He was taken down and laid in a borrowed grave.
4. Nineteen centuries have come and​ gone, and today He is the central figure for much of the human race. All the armies that ever marched and all the navies that ever sailed and all the parliaments that ever sat and all the kings that ever​ reigned, put​ together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as powerfully as this open double quoteOne Solitary Life.close double quote

KATRIN_1 [288]

My thoughts according to the question is that <u>humans are different and wlll need to understand each other to co-exist peacefully</u>

<u />

According to your question, men and women are <em>polar opposites</em> in different ways such as:

  • Men are generally stronger as a result of hormones and bone structure
  • Women are said to be more emotional
  • Men are said to be more logical and make more rational decisions
  • Women can conceive and bear children; men cannot.

Therefore, i believe that <em>understanding each other </em>is NOT a thing of the past as it helps to foster and nurture relationships.

How do paragraphs 3-4 develop the message of the speech?
hichkok12 [17]

The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.  

Answer: The paragraphs make an emotional plea to the audience to honor King's legacy by avoiding violence.

Explanation:

The question refers to "RFK’s Speech Following the Death of MLK" (1968) by Senator Robert F. Kennedy.

In paragraphs 3-4, Kennedy acknowledges how angered African Americans must feel because of Martin Luther King´s assassination. Given that it was most likely a hate crime committed by a white person, the then-Senator claims to understand their justifiable desire of revenge and violence seeming like the only option. However, he pleas for them and all the American people to honor King's legacy by avoiding violence, as his life effort was to gain rights through peaceful protest.
