2. Without a solution, we are in trouble. Without a solution, the trouble will be great.

3. We do not need a solution right away, since two days is plenty of time to solve this global issue.

Explanation:

These statements use rhetorical devices called 'anaphora' and 'verbal irony'.

2. Anaphora is the repetition of a phrase at the beginning of successive sentences.

In the second statement, the prepositional phrase Without a solution is repeated at the beginning of both sentences.

3. Verbal irony is saying something you don't actually mean.

The speaker is certain that they will be able to solve whatever they need to solve because it is, obviously, a minor problem. That is why the speaker is referring to it as "this global issue" to show his/her ironical attitude to the subject of discussion in the third statement.

What were key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The right answer is  A) Literacy tests were banned and federal enforcement powers strengthened.

Explanation:

The Voting Rights Act of 1965 intended to eliminate barriers erected in southern states that impeded African-Americans from voting, a violation of the 15th Amendment. One common obstacle used to block black people was to make them pass literacy tests. This population had lived for centuries in opression, poverty and lack of education opportunities. That was a repugnant racist trick to make ineffective the rights of a good part of American society.
