conclusion

Answer:

Freedom is being able to think, say, and do what you want — to live your life as you please. Safety is being protected from harm — to live your life without fear of danger.

Though people may uphold freedom as an ultimate virtue, it’s limited in society. You can’t have absolute freedom because it takes away from the safety and the freedom of others. If anyone could do whatever they wanted, and they chose to hurt and kill, that restricts someone else’s freedom to live as they please.

But you also can’t have absolute safety. That would require monitoring and limiting the actions of everyone, submitting to a protective but also authoritative body. Restricting actions limits freedom, but it also limits safety because you become vulnerable to whoever you trust for protection.

Absolute freedom and absolute safety don’t exist in the real world. They rely on each other. Freedom needs safety to be free, and safety needs freedom to be safe.

Within the structure of a society, an ideal government holds the authority and responsibility of balancing the two — giving as much freedom and as much safety as possible to as many people as possible.

Read the excerpt from "Ellis Island.”

"We lived there for three days—Mother and we five children, the youngest of whom was three years old,” recalled Angelo Pellegrini, whose family moved from Italy when he was 10. "Because of the rigorous physical examination that we had to submit to, particularly of the eyes, there was this terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected. And if one of us was, what would the rest of the family do?”

Along with everyone else, Angelo’s family was examined for contagious diseases, such as chicken pox, measles, mumps, scarlet fever, and tuberculosis. If an illness could be treated, the sick were hospitalized on the island. About 2 percent were sent back to where they came from.

an illustration of a patient with chicken pox
an illustration of a hospital room at Ellis Island

The kitchen? This is making even less sense now. My grandmother never allows
anyone but my mom into her kitchen! Why on earth is she insisting I come over here on a
Saturday and head to the kitchen? When I turn to say goodbye to Mom, she gives me a wink

you have become." I seriously have no idea what is going on here, and I must admit that this
whole thing is becoming increasingly more aggravating,
And then, as I walk in to Abuela's kitchen, it begins to make a lot more sense. Sitting on
her kitchen table are an apron and The Book. I turn to Abuela, and she offers me a glowing

pride. "Only the women in our family are given the privilege of knowing the secret recipes
found in The Book. My Abuela shared its contents with me when I turned thirteen, and now I
have the honor of sharing it with you."

Which excerpt from The Land, Part 4 is an example of direct characterization of Paul?

I asked him if Mitchell could go with us. "He's right good with horses now," I said. "He's gentle with them, and they trust him.”
"No," I said. "No, I won't be here, not here on my daddy's land. One day I'll have land of my own. I've got to have something all my own."
