The purpose of Mandela's speech was not simply to address the nation as their new president and give gratitude to those who put him there but instead to make a statement that South Africa was going to make immense changes and unify to show the world what the nation could truly do in order to become a land of hope. There are a few purposes to this speech, one being to unify the nation of south Africa by bringing the blacks and the whites together. The speech was also used to motivate and inspire the people of South Africa. I know this because I've studied Mandela's life in one of my subjects at school.

The audience for this speech was the people of South Africa. He addresses every one he possibly can to broaden his audience so that every South African hears his message.

Nelson Mandela

"I stand here before you not as a prophet but as a humble servant of you, the people."

Mandela repeats the word negotiations as he wants to encourage and push for more negotiations - a thing that will bring them closer to freedom.

Which of the following uses an active voice?

bulgar [2K]

Active voice is when the noun or object is the one that does the action.

^^^This is a bit confusing, so how I think about it is if a sentence uses any of the following words then it isn't using active voice:

-is

-was

-am

-are

-have been

-has

-will be

-being

A. She makes the most of the opportunities she’s given.

B. The dog show can be observed from the stands. <<< the "dog show" isn't the one that is really doing the observing, so this is using passive voice

C. The total number of participants was tallied up by the volunteers. <<<has the word "was" The participants were't doing the tallying, it was the volunteers, therefore it is in the passive form

D. The scholarships can be turned in as soon as this school year ends.

<<< The scholarships aren't doing the turning in, the people are, so it is using passive voice

answer A

Hope this helped
