Hey. 10th Grader speaking here. The last time I took an SAT Practice Test, I saw this passage of Frederick Douglass, and this exact question.
Personally speaking, I put 2., but I believe that it's between 2. and 3. You make the choice.
2. because a portion of slavery was removed from the Declaration of Independence, and the Declaration says that all men are "equal"
3. because the U.S Government did not take care of African Americans, and did not pay too much attention to the issue of slavery. Slavery is unethical, so some politicians where trying to say that, while some just ignored it.
Alliteration- 4th line- heart,heart,heart
thats all i can help with
Answer:
19:
a. have you ever been back to the town where you were born
b. you will miss your plan unless you don´t hurry up
c. I remember checking that I had my car keys with me when I left the house.
d. I wish I hadn´t been rude to sally last week, as she is not speaking to me now.
Explanation:
The mistakes:
• “I hear you will go to Paris last month”
Should be- “I heard you went to Paris last month.”
• “I am sure you will.”
Should be- “I’m sure you did.”
• “Will you see Sophia...”
Should be- “Did you see Sophia...”
• “I did heard Ridley...”
Should be- “I did hear Ridley...”
• “I will see our old friend Steven Eastwood last week.”
Should be- “I saw our old friend Steven Eastwood last week.”
• “He will be doing very well.”
Should be- “He was doing very well.”
• “It was called U.T...
Should be- “It is called U.T...”
• “You must saw it.”
Should be- “You must see it.”
That’s all! The main problem through out this passage was the tenses. The mistakes should be put into past tense.
Hope this helps; have a good day! :)
