In Ancient times, sickness was thought to be caused by an excess of blood. Therefore, doctors would cut into their patients and let some of the blood out to help cure them. This theory advanced into thinking that the human body needed all of its "humors" to be balanced: blood was one of the humors so if  the doctor thought you had an imbalance, they would 'let' some of the blood out.

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>A</u>: to present a contrast between black and white schools.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the author compares two schools; Washington Elementary and  Elyton Elementary. He describes Arnetta's impressions when she came into Washington Elementary, as it was quite different from schools for white people. Teachers were all black, the classrooms were too crowded and poorly equipped. She is disappointed and tries to believe that black students will be able to attend schools for white children.

<em>We've Got a Job: The 1963 Birmingham Children's March</em> is a book written by Cynthia Levinson, which tells a story about children's fight against racial segregation. A group of elementary and high-school students protest segregation and get arrested in Birmingham, Alabama.
