Analysis on a song ( I did this for a history class) (you can submit the lyrics yourself) *BRAINLIEST WILL BE APPRECIATED
1)Glory- John Legend and Common
2)Glory was released in 2014 in the midst of the Black Lives Matter movement
3)This song was released as the theme song from the 2014 film “Selma”, which portrays the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches. The movie showcased the battle of the Civil Right movement from 1965. The lyrics made reference to many important events of the Civil Right movement like Rosa Parks' resistance on the bus, the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MLK’s work, Jim Crow laws. “One day when the glory comes” “.. Now the war isn’t over” indicating that decades after the Civil Right movement discrimination against African Americans is still alive, the work isn’t still done yet. “Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle”, interpreting that the constitution and laws of this land support the Jim Crow laws. There was also many references to the crucification of Jesus Christ which points out that religion was also a very big part of the Civil Right movement
Context clues are hints that an author gives to help define a difficult or unusual word. The clue may appear within the same sentence as the word to which it refers, or it may follow in a preceding sentence. Because most of one’s vocabulary is gained through reading, it is important that you be able to recognize and take advantage of context clues.
There are at least four kinds of context clues that are quite common: 1) a synonym (or repeat context clue) which appears in that sentence; 2) anantonym (or contrast context clue) that has the opposite meaning, which can reveal the meaning of an unknown term; 3) an explanation for an unknown word is given (adefinition context clue) within the sentence or in the sentence immediately preceding; and 4) specific examples (an example context clue) used to define the term.
There may also be word-part context clues in which a common prefix, suffix, or root will suggest at least part of the meaning of a word. A general sense context clue lets the reader puzzle out a word meaning from whatever information is available – and this is the most common kind of context clue. Others describe context clues in three ways: 1) semantic or meaning clues, e.g., When reading a story about cats, good readers develop the expectation that it will contain words associated with cats, such as “tail,” “purr,” “scratch,” and “whiskers”; 2) syntactic or word order clues where the order of the words in a sentence can indicate that a missing word must be (for example, a verb); and 3) picture clues where illustrations help with the identification of a word.
