What is the central idea of this excerpt from "The Destiny of Colored Americans" by Frederick Douglass? The white man’s happines

Mrrafil [7]

The correct answer is C.

The central idea of this passage is that the US needs to grant its black population freedom and equality.

Douglass makes the argument that this country cannot reach its maximum potential if a good portion of the population is oppressed. He compares the oppression of African-Americans in the United States to cutting off the right arm of every soldier going to war -- senseless and dangerous.

“Mericans” by Sandra Cisneros HOW IS THE THEME DEVELOPED? OR HOW DOES THE AUTHOR DEVELOP THE THEME IT "MERICANS" BY SANDRA CISNE

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

We’re waiting for the awful grandmother who is inside dropping pesos into la ofrenda box before the altar to La Divina Providencia. Lighting votive candles and genuflecting. Blessing herself and kissing her thumb. Running a crystal rosary between her fingers. Mumbling, mumbling, mumbling.

There are so many prayers and promises and thanks-be-to-God to be given in the name of the husband and the sons and the only daughter who never attend mass. It doesn’t matter. Like La Virgen de Guadalupe, the awful grandmother intercedes on their behalf. For the grandfather who hasn’t believed in anything since the first PRI elections. For my father, El Periquín, so skinny he needs his sleep. For Auntie Light-skin, who only a few hours before was breakfasting on brain and goat tacos after dancing all night in the pink zone. For Uncle Fat-face, the blackest of the black sheep—Always remember your Uncle Fat-face in your prayers. And Uncle Baby— You go for me, Mamá—God listens to you.

Answer:

The correct answer is A: It gives a poem a sense of rhythm.

Explanation:

In her poem "Miss Rosie", Lucille Clifton repeats the phrase "when I watch you" in order to give a poem a sense of rhythm. She uses this phrase to introduce new ideas and new thoughts, by establishing an even and steady rhythm through her poem.

The poem describes an insignificant and ugly old woman, and Clifton expresses her respect for Miss Rosie's age, as she represents old people, who were respected and cherished in the best years of her life.
