This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online, it is as follows:

Read the excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”

Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will.  

What is the author’s purpose for including this sentence?

A. to condemn the insincerity of his critics’ advice

B. to contrast the motivations of people in power

C. to explain the need for mutual understanding

D. to criticize people who treat others cruelly

Answer:

The author's purpose for including this sentence is:

A. to condemn the insincerity of his critics’ advice .

Explanation:

Dr. King mentions the "shallow understanding from people of good will" because of his critics. Unfortunately, even well-intentioned people will offer bad advice or undeserved criticism when their understanding of the subject is not deep. That, according to Dr. King, is "even more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will." Those who have good will could be of help, could make a difference. When, however, they do not make an effort to fully know the subject and to choose between right and wrong, they end up harming others.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

1. It is very important for students to learn in a physical classroom. 2. I would excel in either being a bounty hunter or a veterinarian.

Explanation:

1. it is important for many students to be in a physical classroom. Online learning was very hard on all the students at my school. It was very hard for many to concentrate, turn in assignments, and many even had connection/WiFi issues. I myself do not have WiFi. Online learning is also a bit harder for students with mental disabilities, due to them finding concentration and help very hard.

2. I would flourish as a bounty hunter, due to my dedication, athletic ability, passion for law enforcement, extreme knowledge on bounty hunting (and guns), and my experience. I would be great as a veterinarian because of my experience with animals, dedication, knowledge on animals and veterinarian jobs, passion for animals and there well-being, and also because it pays very good money (also does pay goo d money for bounty hunting, but also depends on how many cases you do).

Hope this helped you!!! : )
