PLEASE HELP. (60 points)

English
1 answer:
Citrus2011 [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Martin Luther King uses the image of a festering boil in order to convince the church of the need to bring the injustice of racism to light. Perhaps the most important aspect of the metaphor, along with the ugliness and toxicity of both a boil and racism, is the fact that to open a boil is a painful and scary process. Just as it is easier in the short term to let a boil stay untouched, due to its sensitivity, the church did not want to address the issue of racial injustice due to the uproar and it would cause in its communities.

Dr. King uses figurative language to compare the pus-flowing ugliness of a popped boil to the violence and disorder that must arise from facing the problem of race relations head on. In doing so, he both addresses the toxicity and ugliness of racism in society, and also the need to go through the painful experience of bringing it to light.

kramer

Answer:

Paine's opinion is that God will not allow the colonists to be conquered because they have tried so hard to avoid war.

Explanation:

"(...)<u>my secret opinion</u> has ever been, and still is, that God Almighty will not give up a people to military destruction, or leave them unsupportedly to perish, who have so earnestly and so repeatedly sought to avoid the calamities of war(...)"

That's the key opinion of the excerpt from Thomas Paine's essay. The rest of the phrases and sentences are arguments or secondary key points that derivates from that principal statement: As we have sought to avoid the calamities of war, God Almighty won't give us destruction.

Feldman has also reached some of his own conclusions about honesty, based more on his experience than the data. He has come to b
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Employees tend to be more honest when they like their boss and their work.

Explanation:

A counterclaim is an objection to an original claim. The original claim from the excerpt is the belief that employees tend to be more honest when they like their boss and their work. The counterclaim, however, is saying that employees are only honest when there is a financial incentive.

Feldman's experience however shows the first claim to be true for him. His experience as a delivery man for several years made him observe that employees are more honest when they like their bosses and their work, whereas, those further up the corporate ladder who were expected to be more honest since they had more financial incentives, were actually the ones cheating.
