Answer:

A) to show the connection between education and freedom

Below are the first two paragraphs you are suppose to reread not the intro portion.

Explanation:

Very soon after I went to live with Mr. and Mrs. Auld, she very kindly commenced to teach me the A, B, C. After I had learned this, she assisted me in learning to spell words of three or four letters. Just at this point of my progress, Mr. Auld found out what was going on, and at once forbade Mrs. Auld to instruct me further, telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read. To use his own words, further, he said, "If you give a [slave] an inch, he will take an ell. A [slave] should know nothing but to obey his master—to do as he is told to do. Learning would spoil the best [slave] in the world. Now," said he, "if you teach that [slave] (speaking of myself) how to read, there would be no keeping him. It would forever unfit him to be a slave. He would at once become unmanageable, and of no value to his master. As to himself, it could do him no good, but a great deal of harm. It would make him discontented and unhappy."

These words sank deep into my heart, stirred up sentiments within that lay slumbering, and called into existence an entirely new train of thought. It was a new and special revelation, explaining dark and mysterious things, with which my youthful understanding had struggled, but struggled in vain. I now understood what had been to me a most perplexing difficulty—to wit, the white man's power to enslave the black man. It was a grand achievement, and I prized it highly. From that moment, I understood the pathway from slavery to freedom. It was just what I wanted, and I got it at a time when I the least expected it. Whilst I was saddened by the thought of losing the aid of my kind mistress, I was gladdened by the invaluable instruction which, by the merest accident, I had gained from my master.

Answer: D. Jackson relies on long, flowing sentences, whereas Rutledge relies on short, direct sentences.

Explanation:

Andrew Jackson’s address to the Congress and Michael Rutledge’s “Samuel’s Memory” certainly differ in writing techniques and language use. In Jackson's speech, there are long sentences, which makes the speech convincing and helps him demonstrate his intelligence. However, Rutledge's sentences are often short, quite simple and straightforward.
