Answer:

C

Explanation:

The historic event Jackie Robinson is referring to is:

Option C: Governor Faubus’s calling of the Arkansas National Guard to prevent nine African American students from entering Little Rock Central High School, despite the US Supreme Court’s ruling against segregation

Explanation:

The 'Brown vs. Board of Education' made a rule that public schools would be integrated and there would be no segregation made between the whites and blacks in the school. In case it is done, it would be against law. But the governor of 'Arkansas', Governor Faubus, was against this law and he stopped nine African American students to enter Little Rock Central High School.

Jackie Robinson wrote a letter to President Eisenhower urging that he should take quick action and protect the rights of those nine African American students. President's intervention was important in preventing their rights.

What makes this excerpt from Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens an example of direct characterization? The elderly female was a wom
insens350 [35]

Direct characterization is when the author specifically tells the reader the traits of a character. In this excerpt, Dickens tells you that the woman is elderly, wise, experienced and knows what is "good for children". If Dickens had used indirect characterization, he would have need to shown her wisdom and experience by including specific examples. The reader would then be lead to develop his own conclusion about the whether or not the woman was wise and experienced.

What is the main idea of this passage?
KonstantinChe [14]
I think the answer is B. It is not A, for it IS mandatory as it says that in the text. It is not C, because it is not said in the text, and it is an opinion. And it is not D, yet it is true. It has not been spoken of in the text. Therefore, B is your best bet. Hope this helps!

what is ironic about the lion &amp; the tiger’s adventure? Or, what makes the end of the Lion &amp; Tiger’s adventure so funny?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: The Lion and the Tiger's words differ from their actions - instead of killing people as they planned, they help them.

Explanation:

<em>Irony</em> is a literary device in which a situation results in a completely different outcome than expected. In<em> "The Cowardly Lion and Hungry Tiger"</em>, L. Frank Baum's story, the Lion and the Tiger only appear to be brave - the Lion describes he will tear a person to pieces, while the Tiger plans to eat a fat baby. However, when they encounter a baby and a person, they help them instead of eating them. The Lion helps a person that falls down, while the Tiger finds a lost baby and brings it to its mother.
