This question is incomplete. The complete excerpt of the speech is here:

After contemplation, I conclude that this award which I receive on behalf of that movement is a profound recognition that nonviolence is the answer to the crucial political and moral question of our time – the need for man to overcome oppression and violence without resorting to violence and oppression. Civilization and violence are antithetical concepts. Negroes of the United States, following the people of India, have demonstrated that nonviolence is not sterile passivity, but a powerful moral force which makes for social transformation. Sooner or later all the people of the world will have to discover a way to live together in peace, and thereby transform this pending cosmic elegy into a creative psalm of brotherhood. If this is to be achieved, man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

The correct answer is C. Hopeful

Explanation

In the previous excerpt from his Nobel Prize acceptance speech, Martin Luther King Jr expresses his ideas about the movement he led for nonviolence and how it allowed him to change aspects of society in which African Americans were radically segregated saying "this award ... is a profound recognition that non-violence is the answer to the political and moral question." Later, he projects this idea of peaceful struggle into the future by giving viewers a feeling of hope by saying "Sooner or later all the peoples of the world will have to discover a way to live together in peace." According to the above, it can be established that Martin Luther King Jr uses a hopeful tone because he projects his thoughts towards the future.

Is summarizing is a useful alternative to quoting?

lyudmila [28]

There are some differences betwee summarizing and quoting. Summarizing: doesn't match the source word for word, presents a broad overview, so is usually much shorter than the original text, involves putting the main idea/ideas into your own words, but including only the main point, must be attributed to the original source. Quoting: match the source word for word, must be attributed to the original source, appear between quotation marks, are usually a brief segment of the text. So, as for me, summarizing is not really useful alternative to quoting.

Which word correctly completes the sentence? In these tournaments, one can't always be sure when __________ next match will be A

Veronika [31]

Out of your 3 possible answers, B. ones' is the correct one and I will explain why. Answer A is a contraction of one and is. When you put "one is" into the blank space you can tell that it is not right. Answer C is incorrect because when you place an apostrophe after an s it is implied that there should be another s that follows and so you do not need to put it there. This means that answer B is correct since it doesn't have the extra s.
