One of the basic points in your statement is that the action that I and my associates have taken in Birmingham is untimely. Some have asked: "Why didn’t you give the new city administration time to act?" The only answer that I can give to this query is that the new Birmingham administration must be prodded about as much as the outgoing one, before it will act. We are sadly mistaken if we feel that the election of Albert Boutwell as mayor will bring the millennium to Birmingham. While Mr. Boutwell is a much more gentle person than Mr. Connor, they are both segregationists, dedicated to maintenance of the status quo. I have hope that Mr. Boutwell will be reasonable enough to see the futility of massive resistance to desegregation. But he will not see this without pressure from devotees of civil rights. My friends, I must say to you that we have not made a single gain in civil rights without determined legal and nonviolent pressure. What is King’s claim in this passage?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

King's claim in this passage is that a "determined legal and nonviolent pressure" must be mounted to end segregation in Birmingham.

Explanation:

A claim is an assertion or a statement that something or an event is correct as stated.  A claim may not be true.  It is therefore subject to proof.  That is why claims usually require evidence to substantiate them.  For instance, in preparing a set of financial statements, the principal officers (the chief executive and the chief financial officers) make assertions (claims) that the information presented therein is factual, fair, and truthful, etc.  Such assertions remain mere claims until they are proved to be true.  This is why external auditors, who are supposedly, independent of the management of the company, are expected to confirm or disconfirm such claims before the financial statements can be relied upon for any decision.

In the excerpt from Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut what is ironic about this excerpt?

Answers

Answer:

“He is a genius and an athlete, is under-handicapped, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous.”

Explanation:

The options to the question are:

“If you see this boy,” said the ballerina, “do not—I repeat, do not—try to reason with him.”

“He is a genius and an athlete, is under-handicapped, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous.”

“My God—” said George, “that must be Harrison!”

“Gee—I could tell that one was a doozy,” said Hazel.

Irony can be defined as the state of affairs that is contradictory opposite to what one would normally expect.

The ironic thing about the excerpt from Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut is option B because it is contradictory for someone that is considered a genius and an athlete to be looked upon as "under-handicapped" and "regarded as extremely dangerous".

Consider the complex character Tajima Shume in “Tajima.” How do Tajima’s actions and interactions advance the plot and develop a theme in the story? In your response, describe a theme of the story and explain how the author uses characterization to develop the theme and advance the plot. Use evidence from the text to support your response. Your response should be at least three complete paragraphs.

Answers

Answer:

Tajima was a ronin who was well-read and also loved traveling. On one of his travels, he met with a wandering priest and found out they were going the same place and they struck up a conversation to make their journey smoother and before long they were talking about more intimate affairs.

The priest tells the ronin Tajima about his desire to erect a monument for Buddha and how much he has gotten so far which was two hundred ounces of silver. Tajima immediately has it in his heart that he must have possession of that money.

During a boat ride, Tajima tripped the priest and he fell over and drowned.

Taking the priest's money, he took on a new name Tokubei and began trading with the money and soon amassed great wealth

Three years after, he began to be haunted by the ghost of the priest until he was thought to be mad.

A nearby priest was called to attend to Tokubei and it was discovered that the priest didn't drown all along but survived and forgave Tokubei and asked him to repent. Tokubei gave him the money he stole plus interest and lived happily after.

The theme of the story is "Poverty drives a man to crimes which he repents of in his wealth."

The author used indirect characterization

*a ronin is a samurai without a master, without honor.

How does Leaphorn feel about change?

Answers

Answer: He is resistant to some Navajo taboos, but feels open to change If that is necessary to get into Navajo's behavior and solving the case.

Explanation: Joe Leaphorn is a veteran detective whose mission is to solve a criminal case. To do that, he realizes that he must leave his world view, and analyze the rules, conversations, and behavior of the Navajo community. Throughout the story, he gets more involved in getting to understand their behavior rather than solving the case itself.      

   

Answer and Explanation:

Joe Leaphorn was a fictional character which has created by Tony Hillerman, who was a mystery writer. He was as traditional as his grandfather. He valued him a lot. He was a police officer and to handle the crimes he used his Navajo believes. He uncovered the culprits using his old traditional belief-system. In Navajo, they believed that nature and man depend upon each other. Moreover, we can’t separate them.

Despite his traditional views, he was restricted to some taboo of Navajo beliefs. He was of the view that many people believe in those systems, which resulted in violence.

Furthermore, he was the person who can change himself according to the character the people around him want to be. He was trying to change himself the way white men live. Because he was unable to understand, Ted Issac left his love of life when she needed him.

Answers

Answer:

"Keeping faith," means to be true, consistent and honest with one's words or promises.

Machiavelli's advice is to his followers is that princes should break their promises if it's no longer in their favour to keep it or if events change. He also advised that they lied about the reason why the faith was broken.

He stated that a ruler should always tell people what they want to hear regardless of how true or false it is.

Liverotto is an example of a prince who sized political power via unscrupulous means. After serving in the Army, he returns home and sized power by slaughtering the powerful men under his uncle in the guise that he had come to impress them with the army.

Megan's mother looked after Andy during those months with something close to genuine fondness- not pity, not obligation-as though Andy had become the son she always wanted.

Explanation.

The start of a sentence should be capitalized- the only capitalized word at the start of a phrase is 'Megan's'.

Megan's mother looked after Andy PREP

during those months.

The base sentence uses with as the preposition so-

Megan's mother looked after Andy with something close to genuine fondness-

the (-) indicates an appositive so you need another - to close it.

Megan's mother looked after Andy with something close to genuine fondness- not pity, not obligation-

Original sentence uses as.

Megan's mother looked after Andy with something close to genuine fondness- not pity, not obligation-as though Andy had become the son

Fit in the last phrase and close the sentence with a period.

Megan's mother looked after Andy during those months with something close to genuine fondness- not pity, not obligation-as though Andy had become the son she always wanted.

During those months, Megan's mother looked after Andy with something close to genuine fondness - not pity, not obligation - as though Andy had become the son she always wanted.
