IRISSAK [1]3 years ago

Nelson Mandela (1918-2013), the first black president of South Africa, was a forceful anti-apartheid activist and member of the ANC (African National Congress), a black-liberation group. He was arrested in December 1956 with 100 other activists on charges of treason. Mandela went on trial that same year and eventually was acquitted in 1961.

In 1962, Mandela went to Algeria for training in guerrilla warfare and sabotage, returning to his country later that year, where he was arrested again and sentenced to five years in prison.

On June 12, 1964, he was sentenced to life imprisonment, tried for sabotage, treason and violent conspiracy.

In prison, Mandela became a national and international symbol for fighting against social injustice, apartheid and violation of human rights. He brought hope to South Africa's black population for a nonracial democracy, free from apartheid.

On Feb. 11, 1990, mainly because of popular support, the South African government released Mandela.

In April 1994, Mandela won South Africa's first elections by universal suffrage.

Where is the Raven at the end of the poem (stanza 18)? What does the Ravens presence tell the reader about the narrators grief?
gtnhenbr [62]

The raven remains sitting. He overshadows the narrator, whose soul will never see happiness again.

<span>Analysis: </span>Boo! Hoo! Get a gun and shoot that freaking bird already! The raven's shadow most likely symbolizes sadness. It covers the narrator's soul, symbolic of the narrator never being happy again. Some claim the last stanza relates the narrator's death. They're wrong. The shadow remains on the floor and It's the narrator's soul that will never climb out from under the shadow of sadness. If your teacher tells you he died, tell him he's wrong. If he disagrees, ask him how a dead man can narrate a poem.

Stranded on a traffic island, speeding buses and trucks held the two pedestrians hostage.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stranded on a traffic island,

what comes next has to be about the 2 "hostages". It can't be about the traffic that is holding them hostage. If this sentence was handed to any English teacher, they would immediate get their red pens out and write "This is a misplaced participial phrase"

It's sort of like the example my English  gave us when I was in high school. She said, "Running up a tree, I saw a squirrel."  Then she asked us to write what thought was running up the tree. She got some pretty interesting answers.
