I am for the "immediate, unconditional, and universal" enfranchisement of the black man, in every State in the Union. [Loud appl

ause.] Without this, his liberty is a mockery; without this, you might as well almost retain the old name of slavery for his condition; for in fact, if he is not the slave of the individual master, he is the slave of society, and holds his liberty as a privilege, not as a right. He is at the mercy of the mob, and has no means of protecting himself. How does the repetition of the phrase “without this” support the paragraph’s argument? It reinforces the idea that without equality in the US, the idea of a free society is a joke. It suggests that a free society is possible, with or without equal rights for all people. It indicates that Douglass would be content without material possessions or status. It proposes that slavery will not be abolished in the US without the support of all citizens.

Answer: It reinforces the idea that without equality in the US, the idea of a free society is a joke.

In this excerpt, Douglass wants to highlight the hypocrisy of arguing that the United States is a country that enjoys equal rights for all. He thinks it is foolish to claim this when Black Americans do not have the right to vote. Douglass repeats the phrase "without this..." in order to reinforce this idea, and highlight all the limitations that Black people have in society.

The now famous Carl Sandburg was born in 1878 in Galesburg, Illinois.
ANEK [815]
<span>C is the answer. Carl Sandburg is the simple subject because he is the main focus of the simple sentence ‘Carl Sandburg was born’. ’The now famous Carl Sandburg’ is a complete subject. ‘Was born’ is the simple predicate and ‘was born in 1878 in Galesburg, Illinois’ is the complete predicate.</span>

People began to look around to see the Hutchinsons. Bill Hutchinson was standing quiet, staring down at the paper in his hand. S
AysviL [449]

Answer:

A. Tessie Hutchinson is in conflict with the society.

Explanation:

A conflict in this case is the disagreement between two or more people on a particular point of view.  Tessie Hutchinson does not believe that the time frame given to Mr. Hutchinson to take his papers was ideal or fair enough. This is in contrast to the viewpoint of every other person, including Mr. Hutchinson who tells Tessie to 'shut up'. While Mrs Delacroix tells Tessie to 'be a good sport', Mrs Grace pointed out that, 'every other person was given the same chance'.  

So, the society here composed of the greater number of people are in disagreement with Tessie. So, we can say that Tessie is in conflict with the society.
