Read the excerpt from "The Telephone: A Truer Tale." At about the same time that Antonio Meucci was filing
patent caveats for his talking telegraph, Alexander
Graham Bell was starting to work on his own telephone
model. Bell was an expert in the field of elocution, or
vocal speech. He was very skilled at teaching deaf
students the challenging task of speaking aloud. Just like
Meucci, he enjoyed experimenting. Bell also dreamed of
a world full of useful telephones, just as Meucci did.
However, he had something that Meucci did not. Bell had
a wealthy father-in-law who was happy to invest in his
dream.
Based on the details of this excerpt, a reader can infer
that
Meucci did not succeed because he was not as
talented as Bell.
Bell's expertise in elocution helped him to develop the
telephone.
O Bell succeeded because he had more financial
resources than Meucci.
Meucci's caveats prevented Bell from filing a patent
for the telephone

Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky
