The Letter from Birmingham Jail, also known as the Letter from Birmingham City Jail and The Negro Is Your Brother, is an open letter written on April 16, 1963, by Martin Luther King Jr. The letter defends the strategy of nonviolent resistance to racism. It says that people have a moral responsibility to break unjust laws and to take direct action rather than waiting potentially forever for justice to come through the courts. Responding to being referred to as an "outsider," King writes, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere".

Which detail from "Tiger-Tiger!" best develops the theme that the rules of society don't always benefit the needs of the individ
sdas [7]

Answer:

A. " . . . they [the children] made fun of him because he would not play games or fly kites, or because he mispronounced some word. . ."

Explanation:

'Tiger-Tiger' is a part of the collective stories in 'The Jungle Book' written by Rudyard Kipling. In this story, Mowgli leaves the jungle and decides to go live in human society, after driving the Sher Khan out of the jungle. When Mowgli comes to a village, he gets adopted by a wealthy family, who lost their son.

The theme that the rules of society don't benefit the needs of the individual is developed in option A. Mowgli is a jungle boy, brought up by a wolf pack in jungle, now he lives among human, his own kind, but, in both cases Mowgli remained an outcast. In jungle he was weak among the animals and the beast, but among humans he proved to be as strong as a bull.

In the statement, in option A, the narrator describes how the rules of society didn't fit Mowgli. When he was in jungle he learned to control his temperament. But when children made fun of him, he wanted to break them in two pieces.

Therefore, option A is correct.

Assuming that you're referring to the excerpt from "My Father Writes to my Mother", the statement that best describes the overall impact of the setting would be:  Mother feels empowered when she is in the company of her sisters and cousins.

Read this excerpt from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. The silver trump of freedom had roused my soul to eterna
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

- He is unable to ignore the appeal of freedom.

Explanation:

As per the details provided in the excerpt, the deduction which can be made about Douglass is that 'he couldn't disregard the appeal to freedom.' The descriptions like 'silver trump of freedom...roused my soul...to disappear no more forever' substantiates the deduction. He says that this feeling was always present to take him out of his miserable situation. Now, he began to hear this rhythm of freedom in every minute thing and he could feel it even in the stars, storm, wind, and calm. Thus, this shows that he couldn't sideline this interest in freedom.

Why is the line “and miles to go before I sleep” repeated in Robert frosts “stopping by in the woods
photoshop1234 [79]

This line is repeated twice so as to stress on the fact that we have to fulfill a lot of responsibilities and promises before we die.  Our inner conscience keeps on reminding us to stay away from temptations and always strive to fulfill our responsibilities and promises.
