Read the excerpt from My Story. Back in the spring of 1955 a teenage girl named Claudette Colvin and an elderly woman refused to

give up their seats in the middle section of a bus to white people. When the driver went to get the police, the elderly woman got off the bus, but Claudette refused to leave, saying she had already paid her dime and had no reason to move. When the police came, they dragged her from the bus and arrested her. The author uses a chronological text structure in this excerpt because it
gives readers a clear picture of the sequence of events.

helps readers get into the minds of the people described.

helps readers see the pros and cons of the situation.

gives readers a vivid and detailed description of the bus.

Of course, the chronological description helps to clearly understand the sequence of the dates or events. But we can not see the dates, only the events. This excerpt is from Rosa Parks book, "My Story" where she describes a woman who didn't give up her seat. The chronological description helps us to see this racial injustice in a more detailed way with chronological order. The correct option is the first one.

In the song "Revolutionary Tea," why do all of the stanzas end with a phrase repeated three times? Select all that apply.
tamaranim1 [39]

The correct answer is the following:<em> option b and option d</em>. In the song "Revolutionary Tea" all of the stanzas end with a phrase that is repeated three times. This happens because the song is <em>based on the form of a traditional English country song</em>, which follows a poetic style of writing, in which repetition is used to enhance the lyricism and therefore create more enthusiasm to the writing. It was also used as a rhythmic r<em>efrain to be sung by groups of people in taverns </em>during those times, so if the song had a good repetition through it, it ensured that it would rhyme and that groups of people in taverns or bar would be more inclined to sing them together.

Read the excerpt from Anthem. Here, on this mountain, I and my sons and my chosen friends shall build our new land and our fort.
Nadusha1986 [10]

The imagery of "the heart" suggests that the relationship between the society the narrator plans to build and the outside world will be the following: membership for the new society on the mountain will be open to anyone.

In chapter twelve of Anthem, which is the chapter from which the excerpt was extracted, Equality 7-2521 and the Golden One decide that they will launch a new race in the abandoned house they found from the Unmentionable Times. This new race that they vow to create will accept individualism, and they intend to make it the heart of the earth, i.e., <em>the central piece of the planet, </em>the core that will keep life flowing for humanity (much like a heart keeps the body alive by pumping blood). A humanity that believes in individualism, the word "I", and the supremacy of the ego.

Over [174]
<span>The correct answer would be D. Answer C neglects any opposing viewpoints, and is more of a closing sentence for the opposing argument generated in Answer D. Although the answers A and B throw Proposition S into a negative light, they do not themselves generate an opposing argument. Rather, they are just quick statements supporting the argument presented in answer D. D most sufficiently represents an opposing viewpoint as it acknowledges the other side of the argument, presents a statement that opposes this acknowledged argument, and follows with multiple supporting statements to strengthen the reasoning for opposing Proposition S. The passage continues to support this statement with: These city governments would be required to pay for public services in areas where local politicians have failed to find a way to fund their own projects. Approximately $12.3 million dollars of tax revenue would be redirected toward county projects. Many programs at our new community center will have to be cut. (Answer A) *This would affect more than 40,000 citizens of Northfield. The construction of Northfield Park would probably have to be put on hold. (Answer B) The passage closes with. What is good for Northfield is good for all of Westport County. (Answer C) As these are just supporting statements for the argument presented in Answer D, or closing the letter, they cannot be the main opposing viewpoint being addressed. Therefore, they would be incorrect.</span>
