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.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The best option is letter B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

Explanation:

When quoting what someone said, even if it is a character in a play or a story, we must use quotation marks. Notice that they will separate the character's words from the words of the person who is quoting. Also, if a period or a comma must appear, they should come inside the quotation marks, not outside. Therefore, letter B is the best option because it follows those instructions.

B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

Which statement best summarizes the central idea of
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Probably A or B.

Explanation:

"Other countries with such divisions have in fact divided into new nations...but not this one, impossibly interwoven even in its hostilities." The passage does say America is still together despite the decisions, which makes me believe option B is correct. However, A also could be correct because the main idea of the passage largely is the differences between religion, sexuality, and race in America where "What is the point of a nation in which...speak in theory of hatred, one for the other? What is the point of a nation in which one part always seems to be on the verge of fisticuffs with another?"

Read the excerpt from Gilgamesh: A New English Version.

Gilgamesh answered, "Dear friend, dear brother, I cannot kill Humbaba alone. Please stay here with me. Stand at my side. 'Two boats lashed together will never sink. A three-ply rope is not easily broken.' If we help each other and fight side by side, what harm can come to us?"

The author includes this excerpt to establish Gilgamesh as

A.a compelling speaker.

B.a ruthless warrior.

C. devoted servant of Shamash.

D.a long-distance traveler.

The author includes this excerpt to establish Gilgamesh as a compelling speaker.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gilgamesh is a central character and a hero from the epic poem ‘Gilgamesh’, which is all about bravery, courage, overcoming one’s fear, and power.

The excerpt provides a conversation between Enkidu and Gilgamesh, where Gilgamesh mentions that he cannot kill the monster Humbaba alone.

The author here depicts Gilgamesh as a compelling speaker, meaning the one who’s captivating and evokes interest in a powerful way.

When Gilgamesh says, ‘If we help each other and fight side by side, what harm can come to us’ it shows that he is powerful and courageous.
