Question

1. part a: how does paragraph 3 contribute to the development of ideas in the text? a. it proves how intelligent martin luther king jr. was from a young age. b. it shows how many world leaders ended up impacting the civil rights movement. c. it shows how martin luther king jr.s upbringing contributed to his commitment to activism and religious leadership. d. it shows that martin luther king, jr.s beliefs were not his own, but that his ideas were largely borrowed from other lesser - known leaders.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Focusing on intelligence from a young age is not the typical focus of a paragraph about MLK's contribution to ideas in a text about his role (like Civil Rights), so this is incorrect.
• Option B: The paragraph is about MLK, not multiple world leaders impacting the Civil Rights Movement, so B is wrong.
• Option C: MLK's upbringing (family, religious background, etc.) often contributes to his activism and religious leadership, which is a key part of developing ideas about his role. This is a valid contribution.
• Option D: MLK's beliefs were his own, and the idea of borrowing from lesser - known leaders is incorrect and goes against what we know about him.

Answer:

C. It shows how Martin Luther King Jr.'s upbringing contributed to his commitment to activism and religious leadership.
