Winning his directors' approval was almost insignificant in contrast to the task which now lay ahead of the Dodger president. He made certain that word of his plans did not leak out, particularly to the press. Next, he had to find the ideal player for his project, which came to be called "Rickey's noble experiment." This player had to be one who could take abuse, name-calling, rejection by fans and sportswriters and by fellow players not only on opposing teams but on his own. He had to be able to stand up in the face of merciless persecution and not retaliate. On the other hand, he had to be a contradiction in human terms; he still had to have spirit. He could not be an Uncle Tom. His ability to turn the other cheek had to be predicated on his determination to gain acceptance.

I hope this helps you guys! I know most people who post answers for unit tests never provide the actual answers written out so it's hard to get the correct answers since teachers switch up the answers on unit tests. I promise that if you use these answers you will get a 100. You're welcome! :)

By the way, I posted these answers for a different question on the unit test and today I realized it would probably be a good idea for me to post them for the first question so here it is! I know I'm probably a little late to help the kids in 2020 doing this unit test but I hope I at least helped someone out there. Have a great day and never forget; You are loved more than you will ever know!

zukos mom remember not every one has the same answer and questions so please stop posting answers and answers we have answers already and if you don't like it then just leave this page. Now I am off to go play some sports when i come back I hope to see that nothing has changed.

also I found it weird that your name is zukos mom and then theres someone names zukos ex, so i'm saying that you are the same person cause I don't think that someone would have the nerve to put zukos ex and then another one put zukos mom.

Unless you are really his mom then I am truly sorry, I just went on a page and it was all like "Miss Sue", "miss sue's mom", "miss sue's sister" but miss sue died in 2018.

I got 100 percent and the questions and answers are below. 1:✔ 2:✔ 3:✔ 4:✔ 5:✔ 6:✔ 7:✔ 8:✔ 9:✔ 10:✔. 1: Which sentence from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." best shows that Chavez is trying to connect with his audience to persuade them to join his cause? ✔ "My friends, as we enter a new decade, it should be clear to all of us that there is an unfinished agenda" "Pesticides have created a legacy of pain, and misery, and death for farm workers and consumers alike." "We have witnessed truckloads of grapes being dumped because no one would stop to buy them." "Our workers labor for many hours every day under the hot sun, often without safe drinking water" 2: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." Economic pressure is the only language the growers speak, and they are beginning to listen. Please, boycott table grapes. Which persuasive element does Chavez use in this passage? using words to connect with the audience using facts to support an argument ✔ stating a clear purpose or goal creating a strong introduction 3: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." My friends, as we enter a new decade, it should be clear to all of us that there is an unfinished agenda, that we have miles to go before we reach the promised land. Which words in the passage show Chavez’s attempt to connect with his audience? ✔ my friends new decade unfinished agenda promised land 4: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." The crop which poses the greatest danger, and the focus of our struggle, is the table grape crop. These pesticides soak the fields, drift with the wind, pollute the water, and are eaten by unwitting consumers. The poisons are designed to kill and pose a very real threat to consumers and farm workers alike. What is Chavez’s purpose in this passage? to inform people about how farmworkers and consumers work together to fight the dangers of pesticides to convince people that pesticides are used mainly in the fields where table grapes are grown to entertain people with stories about the ways in which pesticides travel from the fields into homes ✔ to persuade people that everyone is affected by the harmful chemicals found in pesticides 5: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." The time is now for people, of all races and backgrounds, to sound the trumpets of change. As Dr. King proclaimed, "There comes a time when people get tired of being trampled over by the iron feet of oppression." The strong language in this passage shows that Chavez wants people to feel that true equality is a nearly impossible goal. always follow in their leaders’ footsteps. ✔ work together to fight against social injustices. change their opinions about peaceful resistance. 6: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." In our life and death struggle for justice, we have turned to the court of last resort: the American people. And the people are ruling in our favor. As a result, grape sales keep falling. We have witnessed truckloads of grapes being dumped because no one would stop to buy them. As demand drops, so do prices and profits. The growers are under tremendous economic pressure. We are winning, but there is still much hard work ahead of us. I hope that you will join our struggle. Which sentence clearly states the purpose of Chavez’s speech? "And the people are ruling in our favor." "As a result, grape sales keep falling." "As demand drops, so do prices and profits." ✔ "I hope that you will join our struggle." 7: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." The prestigious National Academy of Sciences recently concluded an exhaustive five-year study which determined that pesticides do not improve profits and do not produce more crops. What, then, is the effect of pesticides? Pesticides have created a legacy of pain, and misery, and death for farm workers and consumers alike. Based on the details and language in this passage, the reader can conclude that Chavez wants to inform people about how long pesticides have been studied. ✔ convince people that pesticides do much more harm than good. entertain people with stories about the profits of pesticides. persuade people to support scientists who study pesticides. 8: Which detail from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." best supports the theme that the fight for social justice often requires determination and sacrifice? "[Dr. King] once stopped an armed mob, saying: ‘We are not advocating violence. We want to love our enemies. . . . Be good to them. . . . We must meet hate with love.’" ✔ "Dr. King knew that he very probably wouldn’t survive the struggle that he led so well. But he said, ‘If I am stopped, the movement will not stop. . . . For what we are doing is right.’" "Dr. King’s dedication to the rights of the workers who are so often exploited by the forces of greed has profoundly touched my life and guided my struggle." "The United Farm Workers are dedicated to carrying on the dream of Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr." 9: Read the excerpt from "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." The children live in communities surrounded by the grape fields that employ their parents. The children come into contact with the poisons when they play outside, when they drink the water, and when they hug their parents returning from the fields. . . . We have no choice, we must stop the plague of pesticides. How do the examples in this passage best support Chavez’s purpose? They show the types of difficult labor that farm workers do so that people will stand up for them. They show the hardships that farm workers experience so that people will act to protect them. They show the harmful role that pesticides play in communities so that people will try to improve them. ✔ They show how the dangers of pesticides are spread so that people will work to get rid of them. 10: Read the excerpt from a speech by Cesar Chavez, "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr." During my first fast in 1968, Dr. King reminded me that our struggle was his struggle too. He sent me a telegram which said, "Our separate struggles are really one. A struggle for freedom, for dignity, and for humanity." I was profoundly moved that someone facing such a tremendous struggle himself would take the time to worry about a struggle taking place on the other side of the continent. Just as Dr. King was a disciple of Gandhi and Christ, we must now be Dr. King's disciples. Dr. King challenged us to work for a greater humanity. I only hope that we are worthy of his challenge. The theme that “all people who fight for freedom are united” is best supported by ✔ the fact that Dr. King sent Chavez a telegram offering support.
