Question 1. Give three examples from the text which support Muhammad Ali’s statement that, “I have always believed in myself.”
Question 2. How was Muhammad Ali’s will tested after he retired?
Poem:
I have always believed in myself, even as a young child
growing up in Louisville, Kentucky. My parents instilled a sense of
pride and confidence in me, and taught me and my brother
that we could be the best at anything. I must have believed
them, because I remember being the neighborhood marble
champion and challenging my neighborhood buddies to
see who could jump the tallest hedges or run a foot race
the length of the block. Of course I knew when I made the
challenge that I would win. I never even thought of losing.
In high school, I boasted weekly — if not daily — that
one day I was going to be the heavyweight champion of the
world. As part of my boxing training, I would run down
Fourth Street in downtown Louisville, darting in and out of
local shops, taking just enough time to tell them I was
training for the Olympics and I was going to win a gold
medal. And when I came back home, I was going to turn
pro and become the world heavyweight champion in
boxing. I never thought of the possibility of failing — only
of the fame and glory I was going to get when I won. I
could see it. I could almost feel it. When I proclaimed that I
was the "Greatest of All Time" I believed in myself. And I still do.
Throughout my entire boxing career, my belief in my
abilities triumphed over the skill of an opponent. My will
was stronger than their skills. What I didn't know was that
my will would be tested even more when I retired.
In 1984, I was conclusively diagnosed with Parkinson's
disease. Since that diagnosis, my symptoms have increased
and my ability to speak in audible tones has diminished. If
there was anything that would strike at the core of my
confidence in myself, it would be this insidious disease. But
my confidence and will to continue to live life as I choose
won't be compromised.
Early in 1996, I was asked to light the caldron at the
Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. Of course my
immediate answer was yes. I never even thought of having
Parkinson's or what physical challenges that would present for me.
When the moment came for me to walk out on the
140-foot-high scaffolding and take the torch from Janet
Evans, I realized I had the eyes of the world on me. I also
realized that as I held the Olympic torch high above my
head, my tremors had taken over. Just at that moment, I
heard a rumble in the stadium that became a pounding
roar and then turned into a deafening applause. I was
reminded of my 1960 Olympic experience in Rome, when I
won the gold medal. Those 36 years between Rome and
Atlanta flashed before me, and I realized that I had come full circle.
Nothing in life has defeated me.
I am still the "Greatest." This I believe.

Write a letter to your sister who has gain admission into your former school giving her information about the school and advise her on how to behave well while in school
Answer:
P1, NPA Estate, Housing, Ikd,
Lagos.
12/02/2021.
Dear Vanessa,
I am so happy to write to you at this time. Mom informed me that you just gained admission into my prestigious school. I must tell you that you are in the right place of learning. But I have some few advise and information to give you which will enable you enjoy your learning there and still come out the best.
Firstly, some lecturers can be so frustrating. Therefore, you need to be very smart. Some of them can come into the lecture hall to give impromptu test which they will use as their continuous assessment. So, you must make sure you study very well before going for lectures.
Secondly, beware of bad friends. One thing that is prevalent in that school is the issue of conspiracy. This happens when you move with the wrong company. Move with the right company of friends; those that will help you achieve your dreams.
Finally, do not bury yourself in books alone. Socialize and network with friends and colleagues. Also, remember to take your walk with God very seriously. Attend weekly activities and always have personal time with God.
I will stop here for now and will write to you soon to know your wellbeing.
Patrick, Victor and Praise send their greetings. Take care.
Yours Truly,
Chris.
Explanation:
The letter to my sister is an informal letter. From the above letter written, you will discover that I opened the greeting with her name, "Dear Vanessa". This shows that she is close to me and not a stranger. Also, the body of letter reveals that there is a bond of intimacy between us which makes the writing informal. Then my closing remark also shows that I am writing to a known person.
which of these rhetorical devices does thoreau most clearly use here?
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read the following excerpt from Henry David Thoreau's "Resistance to Civil Government"
It is truly enough said that a corporation has no conscience, but a corporation of conscientious men is a corporation with a conscience.
Which of these rhetorical devices does Thoreau use here?
Answer:
Parallelism
Explanation:
We can say that Thoreau used the parallelism in the paragraph shown above. That's because he wrote phrases that, in sequence, have equivalent meanings and a grammatical pattern that makes them similar within reading. This allows an idea to be highlighted and intensified during the reading of the text.
