Read this excerpt from paragraph 10 of “letter from a birmingham jail" and answer the question. -- just as socrates felt that it was necessary to create a tension in the mind so that individuals could rise from the bondage of myths and half truths to the unfettered realm of creative analysis and objective appraisal, so must we see the need for nonviolent gadflies to create the kind of tension in society that will men rise from the dark depths of prejudice and racism to the majestic heights of understanding and brotherhood. what is king's most likely reason for comparing socrates' ideas about tension in the mind with the tension of those who were involved in nonviolent direct action in birmingham? a. the uplifting goals king sought while writing in birmingham are as relevant today as they were when socrates wrote about in athens. b. the strain among opposing groups in birmingham was similar to the creative blockades in ancient athens, to which socrates referred. c. the situation in birmingham required an appeal to city officials, which was similar to socrates' petition for action to the greek city-states. d. the actions of socrates served as an example for king of how harmony was eventually achieved among warring groups during ancient times.

Which two passages in this excerpt from the death of ivan illych does leo tolstoy use to suggest that ivan ilych feels like his life is slipping away from him? "what's the use? it makes no difference," he said to himself, staring with wide-open eyes into the darkness. "death. yes, death. and none of them knows or wishes to know it, and they have no pity for me. now they are playing." (he heard through the door the distant sound of a song and its accompaniment.) "it's all the same to them, but they will die too! fools! i first, and they later, but it will be the same for them. and now they are merry . . the beasts! " anger choked him and he was agonizingly, unbearably miserable. "it is impossible that all men have been doomed to suffer this awful horror! " he raised himself. "something must be wrong. i must calm myself—must think it all over from the beginning." and he again began thinking. "yes, the beginning of my illness: i knocked my side, but i was still quite well that day and the next. it hurt a little, then rather more. i saw the doctors, then followed despondency and anguish, more doctors, and i drew nearer to the abyss. my strength grew less and i kept coming nearer and nearer, and now i have wasted away and there is no light in my eyes.
