This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

Question: In the above excerpt, which words best establish immediacy?

A) "White men have been known to encourage slaves to escape."

B) "… that I should be free."

C) "I pretended not to be interested in what they said."

D) There is no immediacy.

Answer:

The words that best establish immediacy are:

B) "… that I should be free."

Explanation:

<u>By definition, immediacy is the quality of creating excitement and a sense of urgency by involving someone instantly. Now, imagine being a slave and wishing nothing more than freedom. If someone told you to run away "...that [you] should be free," can you imagine how you would feel? The excitement this would bring? The urgency to escape and finally get rid of the cruelties done to you? For that reason, letter B is the best option. "...that I should be free" are the words that create a sense of immediacy.</u>

The accurate comparison is that from Beowulf's perspective, Grendel is a villain, but from Grendel's perspective, Hrothgar and the D**es are the villains.

<h3>Why do Grendel and Beowulf disagree about who the Visions are?</h3>
  • Beowulf believes that Grendel is the villain because he causes the suffering of humans.
  • Grendel believes that humans are the villains because it was they who invaded Grendel's region and tried to expel him.

Grendel is not a harmless creature and for that reason, when he feels threatened and has his habitat invaded by humans, he attacks them furiously and violently.

This shows that to Grendel, he is innocent, but to Beowulf and the other humans, Grendel is the villain.

Read the excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”
just olya [345]

The correct answer is B) "that activity can be justified by no one".

That is the only option written in formal English, as it uses correct grammar and standard English. The other sentences use informal language, as they are written the way they would be spoken: "know more and more", instead of "increasingly more", for example.
