Because it imagines you in that trying to survive and hungry  <span />

5 0

The excerpt tells readers that hunger was tormenting Rainsford by picking at him, like a person might. This use of personification helps to show readers the intensity of Rainsford’s hunger. It also highlights the internal conflict between his hunger and his desire for adventure. We know that he swam for a long time and fell into a deep slumber. He’s now starving but also feeling invigorated. As the story says, “He looks about him, almost cheerfully.” He even gets around and examines the place and finds signs of a struggle that had happened in the vicinity. His intense hunger is in conflict with his urge for adventure. Yet he retains the ability to think clearly and logically: “Where there are pistol shots, there are men. Where there are men, there is food.” Food becomes his priority over adventure, and he sets off to find food, eventually reaching Zaroff’s chateau.

How does Dr.King develop his claim that "one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws? Explain the evidence he provides
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

He develops this claim by stating that if citizens are required to obey just laws, they have the full right and responsibility to disobey unjust laws and not allow them to move forward.

Explanation:

King says that the responsibility between obeying and disobeying laws is the same for all citizens who are subjected to them. This is because he affirms that, if everyone is obeyed to obey just laws that promote good things, everyone has the moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws, since they promote evil to society. To reinforce this argument, he shows how Saint Augustine and São Tomás de Aquino prove this idea, besides defining what makes a law fair or unjust.
