Answer:
B. “the charges were laughable” (Paragraph 20)
Explanation:
Thes question refers to the article "A Child Of Slavery Who Thought A Generation" which tells the story of Anna Cooper.
She was, amongst other things, a principal and a teacher in first public high school for black students. Her work was amazing and very inspirational, which obviously bothered some people which led to a scandal ginned up against her.
The word "ginned up" means that something was started, agitated, increased or generated in a dubious manner and with dishonest purpose. This means that accusations were made only to throw dirt on her, without any factual evidence.
The sentence that best supports this is "the charges were laughable".
Although many prominent people stood in her defence, Cooper had to resign her principal's post due to the scandal and public pressure.
Answer:
C. The theme that trying too hard or aiming to high can cause one to fail.
Explanation:
Ovid's story of Daedalus and Icarus tells the mythical tale of an imprisoned Daedalus making wings with wax and using it to escape from the island that he and his son were kept in. Meanwhile, Pieter Bruegel's oil painting "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" presents an image of the fall of Icarus with only his legs visible above the water while he fell from the sky, plunging head first.
In the painting, though the character of Daedalus isn't visible, the theme of trying too hard which led to the disastrous drowning is perfectly shown through the fall of Icarus. This <u>theme of aiming too high or getting greedy from the myth seems to be the common element that Bruegel retain in his painting.</u>
