erica [24]

Answer: C. The words hideous, revolting, and false most affect the tone and meaning of this passage, so as to show the speaker's disgust over slavery.

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) was an American social reformer, orator, abolitionist and writer. Having <em>himself escaped from slavery</em> in Maryland, he became a leader of the abolitionist movement in Massachusetts and New York, famous for his oratory and antislavery writings.

On July 4th, 1852, he delivered a speech at the commemoration of signing of the Declaration of Independence.  In the speech, he addressed the issue of slavery, and the injustice the slaves were subjected to. The use of words <em>hideous, revolting and false</em>, demonstrates his disgust over slavery.

Answer:

Parents cannot control their child's decisions.  

Explanation:

"Bul_GO! -Gi" addresses the story of a mother who, despite being a very talented artist and wishes her son to follow in her footsteps, she does not impose anything on her. She doesn't require him to do the same as she does, but she respects the boy's individuality and allows him to make his own decisions about how he wants to run his own life. This creates a very good relationship between them, capable of making the child appreciate the mother's wishes.
