Below is an excerpt from Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech. What sort of tone would you use if you were to read

his speech out loud? Why would you use that tone?
"I Have a Dream" Speech (excerpt)
Aug. 28, 1963

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.

Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity.

But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land. So we have come here today to dramatize an shameful condition.

The following question references the novel The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane.
netineya [11]

Answer:

Before Henry joined the army, he envisages fighting in grand battles and being swept away by their "sweep and fire" and because of this he wants to become a Greek or "Homeric" figure. He is dissuaded by his mother from joining the army but he goes against her wishes and enlists.

When he leaves for war, his mother goes contrary to his expectations and instead of convincing him to be a war hero, she gives him a simple advice.

She asks him to take care of himself and be careful and not be a rebel and fall into the group of bad soldiers. She tells him, "<em> don't know what else to tell yeh, Henry, excepting that yeh must never do no shirking, child, on my account. If so be a time comes when yeh have to be kilt or do a mean thing, why, Henry, don't think of anything cept what's right."</em>

From the quote above, his mother implores him to always do the right thing when he is faced with the opportunity to do wrong.

Svetradugi [14.3K]
Dear Sr/Madam:

I am writing to you to complain about a product that I requested from your company a week ago. 

On September 30th, I ordered a set of book which were supposed to arrive 2 days ago. Not only they arrive this morning but that also are in very poor conditions. 

I would like to have any kind of explanation and a change of set. If it is not possible to get new books, I would lie to get a re-found because it is impossible to me to work with the books in such a way.

I look forward to hearing form you shortly.
