Paul Rusesabagina might mean that words have the power to make people act or react in a certain situations. Let´s take an example from his text, he asked the question "What had caused this to happen? Very simple: words" He is referring to a "cool" guy who ends up being a militar carrying guns so Paul blames his parents because he thinks that he might have been told "over and over again" how stupid he was, how he never would be attractive or physically fit. This was used to enforce the power of the elite. So this might be considered a clear case in which due to words a person might decide his future. <span />

The term <em>clause</em><em> </em>refers to a group of words that contains a subject and a predicate. The subject is what the sentence is about, while the predicate tells us what the subject is doing or describes the subject.
In order to find the correct answer, we need to look for a subject and a predicate within the underlined groups of words.
In the first example, the predicate is missing.
In the second, it's the subject that is missing.
In the third example, neither the subject nor the predicate is underlined.
In the fourth example, they are both present. <em>I</em> is the subject, and <em>sat</em> is the predicate. That's why the fourth sentence is the correct answer.

Explanation:
these excerpts are from a<u> narrator who comes from a marginalized community engaging in a protest against the government</u>. this kind of oration is known as <u>deceptively simple</u>.
on the surface, the text seems uninviting and simplistic. but the layer of rebellion is subdued by the matter of factly tone to become more of a defiance to which the common person can easily identify and sympathize with. It also s<u>hows the strength of the narrator</u> by not betraying their emotions to the reader.
