in paragraph 4, mandela refers to the \spiritual and physical oneness we all share with this common homeland.\ which detail from the passage best illustrates what mandela means by this idea? 1. \each time one of us touches the soil of this land, we feel a sense of personal renewal.\ (paragraph 3) 2. \the time for the healing of the wounds has come.\ (paragraph 8) 3. \we have, at last, achieved our political emancipation.\ (paragraph 8) 4. \we succeeded in taking our last steps to freedom in conditions of relative peace.\ (paragraph 9)

Explanation:

The idea of "spiritual and physical oneness we all share with this common homeland" implies a deep - rooted connection to the land. The statement "Each time one of us touches the soil of this land, we feel a sense of personal renewal" from paragraph 3 best illustrates this connection as it shows a personal and spiritual bond with the homeland. The other options focus more on healing, political emancipation, and achieving freedom rather than the oneness with the homeland.

Answer:

1. "Each time one of us touches the soil of this land, we feel a sense of personal renewal." (Paragraph 3)
