Text from "After Twenty Years" which best supports the idea that Jimmy Wells is a good man is "Somehow I couldn’t do it myself, so I went around and got a plain clothes man to do the job."

Between two painful alternatives, Jimmy had to make a difficult choice. On one hand, he could have let his friend Silky Bob escape and gone on his way but Jimmy as a police officer would have been guilty of failing to do his sworn duty. On the other hand, he would be guilty of betraying his friend by causing him to be arrested.

Being a law-abiding and moral person he arrests his friend and he could not ignore it.

1. List at least five descriptive words and phrases that Bradford uses to describe the
Aleks [24]

Answer and Explanation:

1. Bradford uses words like "savages", "cruel", "brutal", "barbarians" and "treacherous". He says that one of the biggest challenges to establish in America would be to live “in continual danger of the savage people who are cruel, barbarious, and most treacherous”

2. This position of Bradford in relation to the indigenous people shows a negative connotation of the indigenous people and portrays them as irrational beasts and lacking an intellect that allows them to think and act in a civilized way. Probably, Bradford, drew this conclusion from stories he had heard in England about the aggressiveness and lack of civilization of the Indians, however, we know that the Indians were essential to the success of the colony that Bradford was established.

3. The choice of words and the diction used by Bradford gives the text an uncomfortable impact, as it shows the ignorant and adverse view of the colonizers with the natives and reinforcing the European view that native peoples should be suppressed and act in a submissive way. land that rightfully was theirs.
