Question
read the sentence from notes of a native son.
hatred, which could destroy so much, never failed to destroy the man who hated and this was an immutable law
which best explains why baldwin uses the word \immutable\?
○ to de-emphasize the serious nature of the law he describes
○ to emphasize the inescapable nature of the law he describes
○ to contrast the law he describes with other laws of human nature
○ to compare the law he describes with laws based on morality
The word "immutable" means unchangeable or permanent. In the sentence, it frames the cycle of hatred as an unbreakable, unavoidable rule, which matches the idea of an inescapable law. The other options do not align: it does not downplay the law's seriousness, contrast it with other human laws, or compare it to moral laws.
