Answer:
The lectures were addressed to individuals who could see to highlight and create awareness on the discrimination and withholding of privileges to the blind.
Explanation:
Written by Kate M. Foley, the book, Five Lectures on Blindness was meant to be read at the summer session of the University of California in 1918. The author who was blind herself but was mentally intelligent and smart had been denied jobs due to her disability. She wrote this book to draw the attention of the public to the discrimination being meted out to blind people.
For example, she talked about a very smart lawyer who when he became blind, was now pitied by his colleagues and would not be offered jobs by clients. She appealed to people with sight to show more empathy to the blind and allow them to do work that they were qualified for.
The answer is <em>B: The clause "who as born in Virginia" needs to be set off by</em> <em>commas because it is a nonrestrictive element.</em> This clause is nonrestrictive element because it <em>adds further information</em> about Thomas Jefferson, but it is not essencial to the meaning of the sentence, which means that if it is excluded, the readers will still understand the general meaning of the sentence.<em> It uses commas to separate the additional information. Commas are always used when the word modified by the appositive is a proper noun.</em>
B is the correct answer. The title is unnecessary in the introductory paragraph, the essay's title should be at the the top of the whole text.
