Branch Rickey lost that fight, but when he became the boss of the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1943, he felt the time for equality in bas

eball had come. He knew that achieving it would be terribly difficult. There would be deep resentment, determined opposition, and perhaps even racial violence. He was convinced he was morally right, and he shrewdly sensed that making the game a truly national one would have healthy financial results. He took his case before the startled directors of the club, and using persuasive eloquence, he won the first battle in what would be a long and bitter campaign. He was voted permission to make the Brooklyn club the pioneer in bringing blacks into baseball. What is the author’s purpose for including this paragraph?

Choose the best answer. Make sure you read the question and all of the choices before selecting and answer. Review the conflict
nata0808 [166]

Option number 1 analyzes the conflict developed on the plot. It builds suspense about whether or not Theseus will succeed.

Theseus was the son of <em>Aegeus</em> and volunteered to go to <em>Crete Island</em> to kill the infamous Minotaur, a half man, half bull. The suspense created during the trip makes the reader think about the future of Theseus and Athens.

Once inside the labyrinth, Theseus has a savage fight and defeated the Minotaur ripping one of its horns and stuck it into the Minotaur's neck.

The story of Minos, the island of Crete and the Minotaur is an important part of the Greek Mythology that has influenced the culture of that European region.
