Read the excerpt from Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinis

hed work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

In the excerpt from Abraham Lincoln´s Gettysburg Address the example of parallelism is

          …and that government of the people, by the people, for the people,      shall not perish…

<em>The sentence structure is the same giving it a certain rhythm and the triple repetition with which the information is conveyed more persistently.</em>

mario62 [17]

Answer:

D. He doesn't always agree with the choices of who is honored by the public.

Explanation:

This excerpt is from Jonathan Swift's (1667 – 1745) satirical article "A Modest Proposal" - <em>for preventing the children of poor people in Ireland, from being a burden on their parents or country, and for making them beneficial to the publick.</em>

Option C states almost the same thing as in option D. But option D better explains the situation.

There is also a sharp sense of satire in author's usage of words "fair, cheap and easy". Jonathan Swift's satire is aimed toward government whose policies even in matters of such great importance are economy centered.

How does Baldwin characterize the “American Negro slave” in paragraph 17? Use details to support your answer.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

He characterized the American Negro Slave as unique of all the black slaves of the world because his identity was impossible to trace unlike the other slaves like the Haitians who could trace their origin to some African kings.

Explanation:

James Baldwin in Paragraph 17 of his essay, 'Stranger in the Village', mentioned that the American Negro Slave was unique of all the black slaves in the world because while the other Slaves could still trace their identities down to somewhere, the American Negro Slave could only trace his identity to the bill of sale which was the entrance paper of his forebears into the American society.

Some Haitians could trace their origin to some African kings but that was quite difficult for an American Negro slave to do. Thus, came his search for his identity within the American society.

How does the author foreshadow Arachne’s fate through her characterization
lozanna [386]
The author has implied Arachne’s fate through playing the character as someone full of pride, someone who thinks that her weaving skill is the best that no-one can give her advice. The character thought that even the gods have not allowed insulting her skills. As her punishment, she became a spider who will live, weave and spin.
