Answer:

(B)The tone shifts from anxious to excited.  

Explanation:

The excerpt begins by showing an anxious tone where the characters are anxious and curious about what is waiting for them on the journey they are making. However, the tone changes to excited, when Mohammed yells "The Oasis, the Oasis! I see the palm trees "This shows a happy tone for having found a place of calm and rest.

On January 1, 1808, the slave trade was banned in the U.S. which meant _____. Select the best answer from the choices provided.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

It sure wasn't D. They were slaves, bought and sold.

It didn't free the existing slaves in the United States. It made it illegal to import more people to be slaves.

The choice is between A and C.

I think you should pick C which was factually true and exactly what happened. In other words, the law was circumvented.

The problem with A is that it they were let in directly at the request of Georgia and South Carolina.  These two states had very complex responses to the Jan 1, 1808 law. Their economies depended on as many slaves as they could get legally or not.

Read the sentence from the section "Capitalism."
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Capitalism was built on the exploitation and suffering of black slaves and continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor”

Explanation:

King understood well the connection between poverty and capitalism. The year before his death, on 31 August 1967, he delivered “The Three Evils of Society” speech at the first and only National Conference on New Politics in Chicago.

When we foolishly maximize the minimum and minimize the maximum we sign the warrant for our own day of doom.It is this moral lag in our thing-oriented society that blinds us to the human reality around us and encourages us in the greed and exploitation which creates the sector of poverty in the midst of wealth. Again we have deluded ourselves into believing the myth that Capitalism grew and prospered out of the protestant ethic of hard word and sacrifice. The fact is that Capitalism was build on the exploitation and suffering of black slaves and continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor—both black and white, both here and abroad. . .The way to end poverty is to end the exploitation of the poor.

That’s the kind of analysis that made King so controversial in mainstream circles in his later years, and that has remained buried for the past 50 years under the exclusive focus on dreams and mountaintops.
