Question 2: a
I would say that the answer is his strength.
During the Trojan War, Achilles was a great warrior known for slaying Hector outside the gates of Troy. His resilience was one of his greatest strengths as he was dipped in the waters of the River Styx in the Underworld as a child, granting him invulnerability all over his body. However, he had one weakness: his heel. His mother held onto his heel while dipping him in the River Styx, and thus, this is the only place on his entire body that could kill him. Achilles got overconfident as a result of his immunity, and he was caught off guard when Paris presumably shot him in the heel with an arrow, killing the great warrior.

Explanation:
In his letter from Birmingham jail, Martin Luther King tried to persuade the audience that his non violence belief is a good move to act against racism and oppression.
1. King directly addresses the audience which shows the clarity in his views and actions. He out across his points making several relative points and people understood them clearly and his letter got a lot of attention.
2. King used many allusions to prove his point. An allusion is used by an author referring something in his work to some historic or literary, or cultural details from outside the work. He took instances from Bible, stating what Jesus had preached. He also referred to Mahatma Gandhi who also believed in non violence and India got Independence. All these allusions are very effective as they convince the audience in proving his point as right.
3. King used his words to inspire people the most. It inspired the African-Americans to fight against the whites for their freedom. He said "We will reach the goal of freedom in Birmingham and all over the nation, because the goal of America is freedom". He also gives them hope that things are on their side and they will achieve their goals.
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.
