What two traits does this excerpt from Alice Gerstenberg’s Alice in Wonderland reveal about the White Queen’s character? ALICE: Am I addressing the White Queen? WHITE QUEEN: Well, yes, if you call that a-dressing. It isn’t my notion of the thing, at all. ALICE: If your Majesty will only tell me the right way to begin, I’ll do it as well as I can. WHITE QUEEN: But I don’t want it done at all. I’ve been a-dressing myself for the last two hours. ALICE: Every single thing’s crooked, and you’re all over pins; may I put your shawl straight for you? WHITE QUEEN: I don’t know what’s the matter with it! It’s out of temper. I’ve pinned it here, and I’ve pinned it there, but there’s no pleasing it. ALICE: It can’t go straight, you know, if you pin it all on one side, and dear me, what a state your hair is in! WHITE QUEEN: The brush has got entangled in it! And I lost the comb yesterday. ALICE: (Takes out the brush and arranges the QUEEN’S hair.) You look better now! But really you should have a lady’s maid! The White Queen is bossy. The White Queen is proud of her appearance. The White Queen is absentminded. The White Queen is a strict ruler. The White Queen is careless.

In the reading, statement on the assassination of martin luther king, jr., which of the following inferences is best supported by the second paragraph? martin luther king dedicated his life to love and to justice between fellow human beings. he died in the cause of that effort. in this difficult day, in this difficult time for the united states, it’s perhaps well to ask what kind of a nation we are and what direction we want to move in. for those of you who are black—considering the evidence evidently is that there were white people who were responsible—you can be filled with bitterness, and with hatred, and a desire for revenge. question 5 options: a) the speaker is urging the same non-violent response that was preached by the slain martin luther king, jr. b) the speaker doesn’t want people to be angry about the death of martin luther king, jr. c) the speaker is trying to encourage racial resentment. d) the speaker wishes he hadn’t been born an american citizen.

Read the excerpt from elie wieselâ€™s all rivers run to the sea. why were those trains allowed to roll unhindered into poland? why were the tracks leading to birkenau never bombed? i have put these questions to american presidents and generals and to high-ranking soviet officers. since moscow and washington knew what the killers were doing in the death camps, why was nothing done at least to slow down their â€śproductionâ€ť? that not a single allied military aircraft ever tried to destroy the rail lines converging on auschwitz remains an outrageous enigma to me. birkenau was â€śprocessingâ€ť ten thousand jews a day. stopping a single convoy for a single nightâ€”or even for just a few hoursâ€”would have prolonged so many lives. based on the paragraph, the author would most likely agree that it is best to avoid confrontation at all costs. people need to be proactive when they witness an injustice. countries should remain neutral to keep alliances strong. moscow and washington are to be blamed for the holocaust.

The harlem renaissance dawned in an era of pervasive racism and segregation. although legally "free," many african americans were still bound by ideas that had their roots in the slavery of earlier centuries. identity and freedom are important ideas presented in many of the poems from the harlem renaissance. furthermore, the values of identity and freedom are not unique to particular times and places. as hughes expresses in "dream variations," all humans want to be able to develop their identities in freedom. what role does freedom play in the poems you read in this unit? what is required of a society to enable each individual to be true to his or her identity and be free to live by that identity? write about at least three of the poems, describing how the poet uses imagery to depict freedom and identity, the lack of it, or the desire for it.
