Answer:

“I have a dream that one day right there in Alabama little black boys and little black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.”

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed — we hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.”

“I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave-owners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood.”

“When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: “Free at last! Free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”

Answer:

Explanation:

I belong to a minority that has long suffered over hatred and bigotry. So this has meaning for me.

<em>In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.</em>

May I add that you cannot turn to any part of King's Speech and find no poetry at all. There are a few speeches that inspire everyone no matter where they live and under what conditions.

I hope that Americans everywhere take to heart what King said about hatred. It is an evil that is hard to overcome.

Read the following speech excerpt and then select the correct answer to the question below:
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The sentence "Free nations will press on to victory" relates to the central idea in the sense that:

b. It supports the main point that this is an ongoing fight that America will not abandon.

Explanation:

President Bush addresses how America has declared war against terror, and how that battle shall continue for as long as is necessary. Even though the troops are going home after serving, the mission continues. Terror is not over and, therefore, the war against it is also not over. America, as the free nation it is, will not accept terror to instigate fear among its people or to curb that people's freedom. When he says, "Free nations will press on to victory," he is supporting that point, the main one: the mission continues, the war against terror is not over. America will keep on fighting.

When the bank on the other side of the draw began to throw a narrow shelf of shadow, we knew we ought to be starting homeward;
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The type of figurative language used in the passage is: imagery.

Explanation:

<u>Imagery is a literary device that uses language to appeal to the five senses (sight, taste, touch, smell and hearing). By using imagery, authors involve readers and help them, in their imagination, to see, hear, touch, smell or taste what is being described.</u> In the particular passage we are analyzing here, the author is using imagery when describing the shadow thrown by the bank. <u>By using "a narrow shelf of shadow," the author has us imagining it in a vivid manner, as if we are the character seeing that shadow.</u>
