Answer:
B. “After some hours had passed, the headteacher said to me: ‘The adjoining recitation-room needs sweeping. Take the broom and sweep it.’”
Explanation:
As per the question, Michelle can use the second quotation i.e. 'After some hours...sweep it' as evidence to substantiate the validity of her claim as it shows the readers that non-fiction text narrates the real events and experiences. <u>In her claim, she asserts that how Washington displays the impact of various backgrounds or locations on his life and the words by his headteacher to him for doing the smaller tasks like sweeping would have inspired him to be humble and not consider any task as petty</u>. This would not only support but also justify the claim and hence, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
To be honest with you this question is a bit tough. But it can be different for many people. In your case I would say that the clouds above the house represent someones thoughts or mind in the house. So one could say there judgement is very clouded.
Answer:
1. Just at this point of my progress, Mr. Auld found out what was going on, and at once forbade Mrs. Auld to instruct me further, telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read.
2. He would at once become unmanageable, and of no value to his master.
Explanation:
The two sentences above show that Mr. Auld did not think that education and slavery were compatible. On learning that Frederick Douglass was now learning how to read and write from his wife, he immediately stopped her, insisting that it was not safe to teach a slave how to read and write.
He reasoned that if Douglass became literate, he would become unmanageable. He might now challenge the authority of his master and become of no use to him.
