Question

we trust that you will continue to stand by us as we tackle the challenges of building peace, prosperity, non-sexism, non-racialism and democracy.
we deeply appreciate the role that the masses of our people and their political mass democratic, religious, women, youth, business, traditional and other leaders have played to bring about this conclusion. we bow humbly before a my second deputy president, the honourable f.w. de klerk.
we would also like to pay tribute to our security forces, in all their ranks, for the distinguished role they have played in securing our free democratic elections and the transition to democracy, from disunity which still what to see the light.
the time for the healing of the wounds has come
the moment to bridge the chasms that divide us has come.
the time to build is upon us.
we have, at last, achieved our political emancipation. we pledge ourselves to liberate all our people from the continuing bondage of poverty, deprivation, suffering, gender and other discrimination
we succeeded to take our last steps to freedom in conditions of relative peace. we commit ourselves to the construction of a complete, just and lasting peace.
we have triumphed in the effort to implant hope in the breasts of the millions of our people. we enter into a covenant that we shall build the society in which all south africans, both black and white, will be able to walk tall, without any fear in their hearts, assured of their inalienable right to human dignity—a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world.
as a token of its commitment to the renewal of our country, the new interim government of national unity will, as a matter of urgency, address the issue of amnesty for various categories of our people who are currently serving terms of imprisonment.
we dedicate this day to all the heroes and heroines in this country and the rest of the world who sacrificed in many ways and surrendered their lives so that we could be free.
their dreams have become reality. freedom is their reward.
we are both humbled and elevated by the honor and privilege that you, the people of south africa, have bestowed on us, as the first president of a united, democratic, non-racial and non-sexist south africa, to lead our country out of the valley of darkness.
we understand it still that there is no easy road to freedom.
we know it well that none of us acting alone can achieve success.
we must therefore act together as a united people, for national reconciliation, for nation building, for the birth of a new world.
let there be justice for all.
let there be peace for all.
let there be work, bread, water and salt for all.
let each know that for each the body, the mind and the soul have been freed to fulfill themselves.
never, never and never again shall it be that this beautiful land will again experience the oppression of one by another and suffer the indignity of being the skunk of the world.
let freedom reign.
the sun shall never set on so glorious a human achievement!

1. how does the speaker present his ideas in the sentence?

our daily deeds as ordinary south africans must produce an actual south african reality that will reinforce humanity’s belief in justice, strengthen its confidence in the nobility of the human soul and sustain all our hopes for a glorious life for all.
a the speaker uses alliteration and parallel structure to highlight what he believes are the important and necessary actions of south africans.
b the speaker uses an extended metaphor to illustrate what he believes are the important and necessary actions of south africans.
c the speaker uses passive voice and specific examples to ensure that the audience understands the necessity of bold actions.
d the speaker uses only concrete detail and vivid imagery to establish connections with his audience.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: The sentence "Our daily deeds as ordinary South Africans must produce an actual South African reality that will reinforce humanity’s belief in justice, strengthen its confidence in the nobility of the human soul and sustain all our hopes for a glorious life for all." uses alliteration (e.g., "daily deeds", "reinforce...strengthen...sustain") and parallel structure (the list of what the deeds should achieve) to highlight key actions.
• Option B: There's no extended metaphor here; it's a direct call to action with literary devices, not a metaphorical narrative.
• Option C: The speaker uses active voice ("must produce") and the example isn't about passive voice or specific examples for urgency.
• Option D: The sentence doesn't use only concrete detail and vivid imagery; it's more about rhetorical structure (alliteration, parallelism) than imagery.

So Option A is correct.

Answer:

A. The speaker uses alliteration and parallel structure to highlight what he believes are the important and necessary actions of South Africans.
