Answer:

He reveals his location to highlight the injustice of the situation.

Explanation:

By putting the header information in bold, King highlights that he is Martin Luther King jr. and that he is being held in Birmingham City Jail for peacefully protesting for his rights. With that, he shows that he is imprisoned for an unjust and racist cause.

As you may already know, the first amendment to the constitution allows protests to take place peacefully without the protesters suffering any kind of punishment. So the fact that King evidenced that he was in prison served to show how illegal, racist, unjust and wrong this prison was.

Write a paragraph about your opinion of <br> "the outsider" by H.P. Lovecraft​
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Outsider" is written in a first-person narrative style, and details the miserable and apparently lonely life of an individual, who appears to have never made contact with another individual. The story begins, with the narrator explaining his origins. His memory of others is vague, and he cannot seem to recall any details of his personal history, including who he is or where he is originally from. The narrator tells of his environment: a dark, decaying castle amid an "endless forest" of high trees that block out the light from the sun. He has never seen natural light, nor another human being, and he has never ventured from the prison-like home he now inhabits. The only knowledge the narrator has of the outside world, is from his reading of the "antique books" that line the walls of his castle.

The narrator tells of his eventual determination to free himself, from what he views as an existence within a prison. He decides to climb the ruined staircase of the high castle tower which seems to be his only hope for an escape. At the place where the stairs terminate into crumbled ruins, the narrator begins a long, slow climb up the tower wall, until he eventually finds a trapdoor in the ceiling, which he pushes up and climbs through. Amazingly, he finds himself not at the great height he anticipated, but at ground level in another world. With the sight of the full moon before him, he proclaims, "There came to me the purest ecstasy I have ever known." Overcome with the emotion he feels in beholding what—until now—he had only read about, the narrator takes in his new surroundings. He realizes that he is in an old churchyard, and he wanders out into the countryside before eventually coming upon another castle.

Hope this helps! Brainliest please.

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

C). Mrs. Bennet has ample fortune to support her unmarried daughters for the rest of their lives.

Explanation:

The inference that readers can draw from the given paragraph would be that 'Mrs. Bennet had adequate fortune to back her unmarried daughters for the rest of their life.' <u>This inference can be made from the description like 'property consisted almost entirely in an estate of two thousand a year</u>', 'ample for her situation in life', etc. At that time, only male heirs or a distant relative(in absence of male heir) were allowed to inherit the property and therefore, the daughters sadly had no right to inherit their paternal estate or property. This is the reason why Mrs. Bennet looks for guys with 'possession of a good fortune' for marrying her daughters in order to fulfill this deficiency. Thus,<u> option C</u> is the correct answer.
