C, since the reader can focus on the more important details of the text, rather then the fluff in the beginning
The sentence that seems to match the language and culture of Cervantes's time most closely is A. He dismounted briskly from his horse, ready to engage in battle.
Cervantes wrote during the era of Baroque, which means that every writer's style was embellished and fancy and had a lot of sophisticated words. So the option that best conveys this tone and style is A. The other sentences are either too plain or too informal.
Question:
Line 1-13: What does King's explanation that he does "not wish to speak with Hanoi and the National Liberation Front, But rather to my fellow Americans" Suggest about his purpose in this speech? Why does King use the phrase "my fellow Americans"?
Answer:
Martin Luther King Jr. directed his speech to the American people in an attempt to point out the double standards of the American government and to generate support and empathy towards the cause for which he was already an advocate.
His logic was simple. If the soldiers can fight together, why couldn't' they live together as Americans?
Explanation:
Martin Luther King Jr. was a Civil Rights Spokesperson and Activist. He was an American Baptist preacher until he was assassinated.
The decision by Martin Luther King (MLK) to focus channel his speech towards the American people suggests that the purpose of the speech is to fight the ongoing racism which was prevalent at home.
He saw it as a double standard for the country to create a united military outside of the home front (black and white soldiers alike) when the same people would hardly live together on the same street back in America. His speech also called attention to the fact that it was the poor who were often conscripted into the Army. His speech purports that besides the ongoing racism in the nation, there was also discrimination against the poor folks.
In MLK's speech, he was not speaking to whites nor blacks, but to America. MLK's conviction was that America is for all whether they were Blacks, Whites, Hispanic, Indians, etc.

Answer:
"Till at last there was only one small fish left in all the sea, and he was a small 'Stute Fish, and he swam a little behind the Whale's right ear, so as to be out of harm's way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail and said, 'I'm hungry."
Explanation:
The part of the excerpt that best demonstrates that the author's purpose is to entertain children with a humorous story is the second one.
We have two animals that speak to each other as if they were people. Both of them could be amusing to children - one is a small fish, and the other is a big hungry whale that can stand on its tail. The story also has a rhythm, which makes the story more dynamic and interesting to children.
I think it was hope she thought that two unlikely people could find love like this so she felt like there was hope for them after all
