This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read The Lady Or The Tiger?, by Frank Stockton

How did the king keep from feeling guilty about this form of justice? *

a. He did not watch the festivities.

b. He made his daughter in charge of signaling judgement

c. He said the criminals made their own choices, not him.

d. He was barbaric and just did not feel guilty.

Answer: c. He said the criminals made their own choices, not him.

Explanation:

The arena of the king was meant as a device of poetic justice, where a crime was punished, or virtue rewarded, depending on what was thought to be an impartial test. Given the chance to choose one out of two doors, the criminal would face either the punishment of a tiger´s attack or the reward of a woman to get married to. Whether they would be punished or rewarded was established based on their own choice, making the King feel like has no responsibility for the result.

1. Dalton Conley says that the differences between how black and white people describe themselves are as follows:

a. Black people emphasize their skin color while white people do not.

 

b. Blacks demean themselves by stressing their classes based on wealth.

c. Black people think that they cannot rise above their levels because they are not upwardly mobile in their thought patterns.

<h3>Why does Conley Believe the Differences? </h3>

Conley believes these differences exist because of his personal experiences living among the black communities.

 

2. One will tend to agree with Conley because blacks still worship whites, assuming the whites to be angels from heaven because of their color.

<h3>Personal Descriptive Adjectives: </h3>

3. Many adjectives can describe a person. The following are prominent: Persistent, Genuine, Enthusiastic, Disciplined, Straightforward, Modest, and Tenacious.

 

On the other hand, the following adjectives took longer to think of: Generous, Independent, Resourceful, Courageous, Practical, Energetic, Motivated, Adaptable, and Truthful.

 

Some adjectives are easy to think of more than others. When you look at a person, some qualities are visible while others remain concealed.

<h3>Racial and Class Distinctions </h3>

4. When Dalton Conley says that <em>“race and class are nothing more than a set of stories we tell ourselves to get through the world,”</em> he means that people should not over-emphasize racial and class distinctions because they do not make a person human.

 

I concur because race and class are like appendages. People can live without making distinctions based on race and class.

 

Thus, we can agree with Dalton Conley's expressed opinions in "Honky," noting that "To Kill a Mocking Bird" was authored by Harper Lee.
