Read the passage from Eleanor Roosevelt’s speech on the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Certain provision

s of the Declaration are stated in such broad terms as to be acceptable only because of the provisions in article 30 providing for limitation on the exercise of the rights for the purpose of meeting the requirements of morality, public order, and the general welfare. An example of this is the provision that everyone has the right to equal access to the public service in his country. The basic principle of equality and of nondiscrimination as to public employment is sound, but it cannot be accepted without limitation. My government, for example, would consider that this is unquestionably subject to limitation in the interest of public order and the general welfare. It would not consider that the exclusion from public employment of persons holding subversive political beliefs and not loyal to the basic principles and practices of the constitution and laws of the country would in any way infringe upon this right. How is the contrast created by word choice in this excerpt effective in persuading Roosevelt's audience? Select two options.

This contrast also aims to offer particular examples to show that which people would be entitled with some rights are granted some defined rights. Through the description of broad terms and narrow terms, the author aims to highlight their significance and limitations as well. <u>While the illustrations allow the readers to understand the ideas better so that they can categorize people easily if someone possesses certain rights or not</u>. Hence, <u>options A and B</u> are the correct answer.

I'd say go for it! People should not be uncomfortable about this topic! It's historical, true, raw, and a great <u>topic</u> to discuss. (To clarify I'm not saying slavery is great, because obviously it was hell.)
