Author does not agree with the fact that Great Britain always benefited and will benefit the colonies. The author confirms this with "Nothing can be more fallacious than this.." and he does not believe the nature of the same relationship with Britain that he does not believe it must continue.

What is a central claim of Benjamin
kramer

The correct answer is; Because of British oppression, Americans should understand the plight of slaves.

Further Explanation:

In an excerpt from the letter Mr. Banneker mentions how Americans were mistreated by the British Crown and how Americans fought for their freedom. He was writing the letter so that he could appeal to Thomas Jefferson's own life lessons he had lived through with the British.

There was nothing in the letter about people being of different religions and he did not speak about how more people learning will make them oppose slavery any more than they already did.

Benjamin Banneker was a freed slave who went on to become an author, farmer, and many other things in his lifetime. He self taught himself how to read and write.

Read this passage from Beowulf.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

b. Suspense.

Explanation:

The lines are from the epic "Beowulf" which tells of the heroic deeds of the protagonist and hero Beowulf.

Taken from Chapter 23, the lines refer to when the Geats saw the water filled with blood. They did not know that their leader had vanquished and beheaded Grendel and his mother. Rather, they were of the opinion that Beowulf had been killed by the monsters. This is a theme of suspense for the soldiers who are waiting for their leader. They were sure that their master / leader had been killed. Even Hrothgar had turned his boat and sailed, while the Geats waited expectantly and patiently, hoping for Beowulf to return.
