In this excerpt from Ingrid Jonker’s poem, “The child is not dead,” the “child” most likely refers to the struggle for freedom.

Jonker wrote her poem after going to the Philippi police station and seeing the body of a child who had been shot dead in his mother's arms by the police in the township of Nyanga in Cape Town. In 1960, 69 people were killed while marching to the police station to protest having to carry passbooks to travel in their own native country in Sharpeville, south of Johannesburg.

<em>The poem evokes the struggle and longing for freedom while being violently oppressed.</em>

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Unmotivated

Explanation:

It wouldn't really make sense to say he is lazy because the passage says, 'He must've tried it a hundred times.' Which means he put effort in and was simply unsuccessful. There is nothing malevolent about Gregor in the message, so cruel is out. You could say he was hardworking, but since he isn't doing anything but laying in bed at the moment, it doesn't make sense to put that as the answer either, hence through process of elimination, you can assume that he's simply unmotivated as he expresses mild discouragement and disinterest.

Hope this helps :)

To understand a character, what variations in language should the reader look for? Check all that apply.
Anestetic [448]

These are the variations in language that will help a reader understand a characters. The reader may learn about the character's socio-cultural background - birthplace , social class and level of education - through these items.

  1. pronunciation ( This varies from speakers to speakers. A person from Manchester will have a different pronunciation from a person from London City).
  2. vocabulary ( This also varies. For example, a person from the U.S will say  <em>French fries</em> and a person from England will say <em>chips</em>).
  3. grammar (  Some words may also differ in a sentence. " He do not want it." is said in substandard English , and " He does not want it." is said in standard English).

These options will not say anything about a character because they are universal elements in language. Everybody uses them.

-Nouns

-Verbs

-Synatx
