It appears that the answer would be #4 (listen with compassion), because the author states that he wants the white people to 'understand' - and likely show compassion towards his people.

Answer:

4. Listen with compassion.

Explanation:

In his speech "An Indian's Views of Indian Affairs", Chief Joseph of the Kiowa tribe gave an affectionate plea for everyone to live harmoniously. This speech gave an insight into how the native Indians felt with the intrusion into their land.

Conveying his sincere wish that peace and harmony be maintained by the people, Chief Joseph implored on "<em>the white people to understand my people</em>". This speech also contains the many traditions and values that the Nez Percés people hold. Chief Joseph spoke from his heart, making an impassioned speech to represent the situation of his people as well as maintain harmonious existence with the new comers, the whites.

The tone of the excerpt shows that the speaker Chief Joseph wants the audience to listen with compassion and sympathize with them, while also making a peaceful co-existence with each other.

Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but "to BIND us in ALL CASES W
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The best answer for the question: What is the denotation of the word "bound" in this excerpt, would be, A: trapped.

Explanation:

Trapped is defined as being held, or captured, restrained or entrapped by something or someone. Essentially, it means that a person´s, or something, freedom, is limited due to something tying it, or them, down. When the speaker in this excerpt says that "Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but "to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER", he is making allusion to the fact that binding, or being bound, is like talking about being limited, withheld from their right to be free and to choose their own fates and the way they are governed. Because he uses the word "bound" as a form to talk about limitations, and being held back, especially from freedom, and then makes allusion to this being equal to slavery, then the best option to choose from to answer the question would be A: trapped, which essentially presents the same idea as "bound" would.
