I think that C, that is, "they found the charge and trouble very great, and they had little or no crop it is not doubted", is your answer.

Understatement represents something as smaller or less intense than it reallly is, it presents it as less important. In sentence C, the speaker refers to a problem as a minor inconvinience "(...)trouble very great". Generarlly, we all know, that troubles are far from great. "They had little or no crop it is not doubted", you could change the focus and say that you have "some crop" instead of referring to the crop as being little.

What is the message conveyed in the song lyrics the crown?​
bija089 [108]

Answer:

The message is that everyone, both black and white has made some impart in life and thus wears a crown and was worthy of recognition.

Explanation:

In "The Crown," by Gary Byrd and Stevie Wonder, the history of humanity was traced to ancient Egypt and the Kings that ruled such as King Tut. These people made wonderful achievements in science and astronomy and how also built the pyramids. The song also talked about the origin of its writer. He came from a race that fought for their freedom and suffered in the hands of groups like the Ku Klux Klan. That is the black race.

He recognized the contribution of the black race to life. They first arrived the shores of America some 2,000 years before Columbus. Summarily, the song recognizes that we all have contributed to life in one way or the other, and as such, we all wear the crown.
