The correct answer is C) Indicative
I’m gonna have to go with the word elegance because elegant means pleasingly graceful and stylish in appearance or manner: and exquisite means extremely beautiful and, typically, delicate. Plus their both synonyms to each other
D it is D because a word governing, and usually preceding, a noun or pronoun and expressing a relation to another word or element in the clause, as in “the man on the platform,” “she arrived after dinner,” “what did you do it for ?”.
The best synonym for this word would be B, surrender.
The three parts of this excerpt from<em> Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl </em>by Harriet Ann Jacobs that express the view that even “kind” slaveholders regarded their slaves as merely property are:
1) "After a brief period of suspense, the will of my mistress was read, and we learned that she had bequeathed me to her sister's daughter, a child of five years old."
2) "She possessed but few slaves; and at her death those were all distributed among her relatives."
3) "Notwithstanding my grandmother's long and faithful service to her owners, not one of her children escaped the auction block."
<em>Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl </em>(1861)<em> </em>is an autobiography that tells the story of a fugitive female slave and her struggle to reach her freedom. This excerpt from the book shows that <u>slaveholders were never completely kind since they always ended up treating slaves as objects instead of people</u>. In part 1), the word <u>"bequeathed" means to give something to somebody and it is generally used to refer to personal property</u>. In this case, it is the main character, a slave, who is given by her mistress. Furthermore, in part 2), slaves are also treated as if they were things or even animals when they are spread among the mistress' relatives. Moreover, part 3) shows that slaveholders thought they had the power to own not only their slaves but also the slaves' children and grandchildren, even if they showed loyalty.
