Franklin’s curious mind and a quest for learning are emphasized as a common note on both ‘The excerpt from Young Ben Franklin’ and ‘Excerpt from Printer’s Ink’.  

<u>Explanation: </u>

‘The excerpt from Young Ben Franklin’ describes the curious nature of Franklin to read books and learn every day. He always had a strong fascination towards acquiring knowledge.

The Excerpt from Printer’s Ink also establishes the same point when he is found to be working on his brother’s print shops. He describes it as a greatest place to be, as the place relates to the publishing of articles in various areas like science, politics and entertainment. He is also found to be writing even on his deathbed. The dedication of Franklin to learn and acquire knowledge was very high.

The emphasized quality is that Ben was a perseverant, hard-working young boy and besides that he liked to read in paragraph one says: From a child I was fond of Reading. "All the little money that came into my hands was ever laid out in books". In paragraph two the author says that Ben didn't like his job with his father's soap and candle shop but it helped him learn the importance of hard work. In paragraph four it says that Mr. Franklin sent Ben to work with his older brother James who owned a print shop. Although James was often harsh with his little brother, Ben enjoyed the printing business.

How does Douglass’s cultural point of view as a slave from the early 1800’s shape his motivation to become literate, yet also cr
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Explanation:

Literacy plays an important part in helping Douglass achieve his freedom. Learning to read and write enlightened his mind to the injustice of slavery; it kindled in his heart longings for liberty. Douglass’s skills proved instrumental in his attempts of escape and afterwards in his mission as a spokesman against slavery. Douglass was motivated to learn how to read by hearing his master condemn the education of slaves. Mr. Auld declared that an education would “spoil” him and “forever unfit him to be a slave” (2054). He believed that the ability to read makes a slave “unmanageable” and “discontented” . Douglass discovered that the “white man’s power to enslave the black man” was in his literacy and education. As long as the…show more content…

Reading opened his eyes to his “wretched condition”  and he longed for independence and freedom. He did not desire this for himself alone, but also for his fellow slaves. He “imbue[d] their minds with thoughts of freedom” and sought to “impress them with the gross fraud and inhumanity of slavery”

Hi, please, help me. I'm french.
Lorico [155]
Dearest Mother,

I hope this letter finds you well.

I would like to extend my apologies. I deeply regret the heartaches I have caused you. I am very sorry for making you suffer for my misdeeds. It grieves me that I am no longer there to assist you in taking care of our family. I hope and pray that the time will come when I will be able to see you again; you and my siblings.

I have finally arrived in Australia! After spending three grueling months at sea, I am here.

Our voyage was fraught with difficulties. Weather conditions were unpredictable. Sometimes, very hot; other times, very cold. We encountered bad storms. We endured hunger and sickness due to the shortage of food. A number of our companions died at sea. I felt very hopeless during those times; fearing that I, too, will die at sea. But, by the grace of God, I have survived.

Mother, I met someone here in Australia. Her name is Heather MacMaster. She is a very delightful girl. She gives me hope; the hope to live a prosperous life here. I love her, mother, and I want to marry her. I hope that there will come a day when we will see each other again, and I can introduce you to one another; the mother, who gave me life; and the woman, who makes my life worth living.

From feeling lost and hopeless, I am now very happy. I am looking forward to hearing from you and learning more about what is happening there in your side of the world.

Please write to me, mother. This is the only way I can reach you.

Your loving son,

Ben Winterhayes

Read the passage from "The Seven Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor.”
Brilliant_brown [7]

In this passage, Sindbad is most motivated by work and pleasure i.e, option (c).

<h3>Who was Sindbad?</h3>

Sindbad was a poor porter who lived in Bagdad. on a very hot day, Sindbad was sent to carry a heavy load from one end of the city to the other. Before he had accomplished half the distance he was so tired that, finding himself in a quiet street where the pavement was sprinkled with rose water, and a cool breeze was blowing, he set his burden upon the ground, and sat down to rest in the shade of a grand house.

He travels from one end of the city to the other carrying a burden when he comes to this lovely location in the shadow of a stately home. He never would have discovered that location if he hadn't been doing that. He soon discovers how enjoyable it is, as evidenced by its thorough description of it.

therefore, Sindbad is most motivated by work and pleasure.
