This short description of character analysis shows that the correct answer is C.
1.What about Douglass' speech strikes you as unique or memorable?
Douglas' s speech to me dictated the sorrow many slaves felt on the fourth of July even as the White people celebrated. In the following passage, the most notable mention of this idea to me is evident. "Fellow citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions, whose chains, heavy and grievous yesterday, are today rendered more intolerable by the jubilant shouts that reach them." In the excerpt, Douglas calls the chains of the slaves more intolerable than the jubilant shouts. Douglas means that the fourth of July was a day of freedom, yet slaves in America were still present and were saddened by the day as it symbolised the lie that was independence day.
Explanation:
I could not find the excerpt that is missing in our question but I will tell you something about mood in literature so you can compare the mood with the given image.
- The mood is a big part in literature and we can find it in every genre. It is there to evoke feelings in readers so they can follow the idea of the story. Emotional setting that is surrounding the readers is important because in that way it can direct them into the right path of the story. <u>The speaker or the author is giving us the mood of the story by description of the situation or the character. </u>
