English

Blizzard [7]3 years ago

The answer is B. "America should make immediate changes to ensure equality for all people".

By using the repetition of "Now is the time", King was attempting to inspire people to fight for equality as soon as possible.

King also used the sentence: "This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism." By using this sentence, King is stating that now is not the time to wait for equality and freedom to be granted. Instead, they should fight for it currently and not wait, as past generations did.

By using both of these techniques, King is inspiring people, specifically Americans, to immediately begin working towards freedom and equality for all.

Hope this helps! :)

Which term refers to words or ideas that are clearly expressed and leave no question as to their meaning?
Drupady [299]

Answer: A. Explicit.

Explanation: Explicit means something fully revealed or expressed without vagueness, implication, or ambiguity, it is the opposite of implicit (something suggested but not communicated directly). So the definition "words or ideas that are clearly expressed and leave no question as to their meanings" is referring to the meaning of "explicit", therefore the correct answer is the corresponding to option A.

Answer:

Carroll lived during the Victorian era, which influenced his writing. Queen Victoria reigned during this time period, so female dominance is displayed in Carroll’s writing. In the Alice stories, the Queen of Hearts overcomes the King both in size and power.
