Which words best describe Douglass's tone in this excerpt from What to the Slave is the Fourth of July? (5 points)

English
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

The tone presented by Douglass in his speech "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July," is forceful and angry.

Douglass expressed his anger on the celebration of American independence in which African-Americans still lived in bond as slaves. A country where not every citizen enjoys equality, justice, and freedom.

By using the rhetorical question, Douglass is conveying his grief for being called to speak something about American independence day, whereas his fellow brothers and sisters are in slavery.

Therefore, the tone of the excerpt is angry and forceful. Thus option B is correct.

which verb would make this statement an example of personification the cell phone a, lit up b, shook c, rang d,danced
goldfiish [28.3K]
<span>The correct answer is D. danced. Personification is a figure of speech in which inanimate objects or animals get human characteristics. So, obviously, a cell phone cannot really dance, but humans can, so if you use that verb to show that a mobile phone started ringing, then it's a personification because you assigned it human qualities that objects do not normally possess.</span><span />
