Answer:
Compares the "ashes of youth" to a "youth"
Explanation:
In these lines, the author tends to compare himself to the glowing remnants of a fire, which lie on the ashes that once let it burn; it will be extinguished as it sinks. It reveals that the youthful life is gone as ashes which happens to bring one on the deathbed. Therefore, it's comparing the life of a youth as ashes of youth which is gone as one on their deathbed which means inevitable death.

The statement that best describes the author´s claim in this passage is the first one: Violent uprisings were common, but Gandhi worked to show that resistance could be nonviolent.
Gandhi (1869-1948) was an Indian activist who led the Indian Independence movement against Bristish rule. He inspires movements of civil rights and freedom in a context of violent colonization. He employed non-violent civis disobedience claiming that "Non violence is a weapon of the strong".
He was arrested many times, he supported peace armies during both War Worlds. He was finally assassinated at the age of 78 by a militant Hindu nationalist.
I believe that the options that best describe the qualities of the tragic heroine in these two passages are:
- They both show the main character sacrificing her life for her principles.
- They both show the main character experiencing a downfall and awaiting death.
- They both show moments in the main characters' experiences that evoke pity.
The tragic heroine trope portrays a female protagonist who ends up suffering terribly due to a fatal flaw in her character.
