The answer is C: laid back.

The term  laid back, which means relaxed, is a colloquial and figurative term that can best substitute the word lazy, but without the negative connotations. It should be noted that the word is informal, so that in certain contexts, most notably formal contexts —like communication with an authority figure or in academic settings—, it would not necessarily be the best word choice.

Answer:

D. acknowledge the potentially embarrassing circumstances under which she is delivering her speech

Explanation:

Most of the students at Wellesley College did not want Barbara Bush to speak because they believed that she was only famous because of her husband (president at the time). A majority of the students wanted Alice Walker to give a speech instead, however this did not occur. Bush is trying to use comedic relief in this line to lighten the mood surrounding her speech.

Which best describes the diction in "ain't i a woman?"
yanalaym [24]
The essay "Ain't I a Woman" is quite impressive. For me, it says that the writer is fed up of being a slave and being treated as a second class citizen in the society. She had many children and they were all sold off into slavery. As for me, I would have not been able to continue on after having one taken from me.
