Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read this excerpt from james baldwin's "notes of a native son":the day of my father's funeral had also been my nineteenth birthday. as we drove him to the graveyard, the spoils of injustice, anarchy, discontent, and hatred were all around us. it seemed to me that god himself had devised, to mark my father's end, the most sustained and brutally dissonant of codas. and it seemed to me, too, that the violence which rose all about us as my father left the world had been devised as a corrective for the pride of his eldest son.which sentence best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the author's purpose?
a.it ties baldwin's father's funeral to his birthday and shows that the author is angry that his father died on that day. b.it compares a term signifying the end of a musical piece with his father's death to illustrate the finality of death. c.it contrasts the somber mood of a funeral procession with the happy memories baldwin has about his father. d.it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Answer:
d. it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.
Explanation:
The text above was taken from the autobiography of a black author, who wanted to show the violence, intolerance and injustices that racism caused in a society.

Answer:
d. it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.

You could give a rebuttal but it make your point less strong without giving your audience an open eye to the counter claim.
Answer:
Claim
Explanation:
Claim. To begin, you must state your initial claim. Once your position is established you present the evidence to support it. The counter-claim and rebuttal are only used in response to the other team/person.

I welcome you all to this meeting. As you all already know, we are experiencing low sales and as a result of this, we cannot maintain running costs and other expenditures that are necessary for the smooth functioning of this business.
As manager who have had over 12 years of experience, i am blessed to have such great employees as you who have performed their individual tasks to the best of their abilities -even though sometimes our best is not good enough- and for this i am proud.
One month from now, this business will be no more and it is painful because this was like my brain child and i assume it is the same for a number of you and i know that this would be tough on everybody, emotionally and financially but if we cannot keep overhead costs, there is no way to pay the workers, is there?

Positive attitude in life can make the world a better place to live in. Do you agree or disagree with reference to the poem ’Dust of Snow’. Express your thoughts bringing out the inherent values.
Answer:
I agree with the poem's message that a positive attitude can make the world a better place.
Explanation:
As we can see in the poem, a positive attitude towards something unexpected or negative can be fundamental to life.
The poem has very few lines, however there is a great message in it. The speaker has an encounter with a raven that throws snow on him, and instead of getting angry, the speaker changes his mood in a positive way: he feels rued and saved.
The speaker could have been angered by this unexpected event and reacted in a bad way, even this could have ruined his day. However, he takes a positive and humorous attitude.
If we all did the same with the bad things that happen to us, the world would definitely be a better place.

us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their
native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these

voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our
Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends."
