Darkness lined the alley to the mining field
Gloomy as his faith may be;
Had he been careful and wise indeed
He would not have fallen to this sea.
Life is a cycle; you may be up today, you know
Tomorrow you may be wallowing below.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>A six line poem based on the novel “Black Midas” by Jan Carew: </u>

<em>We are the victims here </em>

<em>To whom fate hasn’t been kind </em>

<em>We spend our days, toiling the ground as hard as we can endure </em>

<em>But the Earth is nothing but dust. </em>

<em>Why is life being unkind and people being unfair? </em>

<em>Even the birds and animals agree. </em>

Carew’s “Black Midas” is a cautionary tale about greed and class conflict set in postcolonial Guyana. The above poem also gives an insight into the lives of the masses who are suffering from the curse of class struggle. The inequality among the various sections of people is the cause of their suffering that’s why they are all victims in the walk of life who do work hard but don’t get the equal in return.

Which sentence most clearly uses hyperbole?
Juliette [100K]

Answer: C

Explanation: hyperbole is exaggeration- a term that isn't technically true, it just kind of feels like it is because of the situation, like "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse," that sort of thing.

C is overreacting a little: "We will never be able to feel safe" ever again no matter what we do "unless we set a curfew." It's being dramatic to make the point that a curfew will help us feel more safe.

<span>They celebrate festively.

This passage shows that even though they competed against each other in the tournaments, they would celebrate for days afterwards with as much singing, dancing, and eating as they possibly could take. This shows how festively and elaborately they celebrate.</span>

What conclusion can be drawn from reading this excerpt from Dr. King's speech?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

D. Negroes were not allowed to vote in the United States.

Explanation:

Looking at the other answer choices, this is the only one that actually makes sense.

It isn't important that people may or may not have felt hot on that day, and it definitely isn't a conclusion (almost like a main idea) of the excerpt.

Also, after reading Dr. King's speech, a conclusion/important fact wouldn't be when the speech was delivered either.

Lastly, Dr. King's whole speech is <u><em>against</em></u> the violence that is occurring to the Negroes in their community, meaning he didn't want violence.
