Read the passage about the life of Jackie Robinson.
At the outset of Jackie Robinson’s career in Major League Baseball, leagues were still segregated. Jackie was drafted by Branch Rickey to change all of that and integrate baseball. Branch knew Jackie would face some tough times, and Branch made him promise not to fight back when he faced this racism, which often came from his own teammates and angry crowds. Despite the threats that he and his family faced, on April 15, 1947, Jackie became the first African-American athlete to play in the major leagues. In his decade-long career with the Dodgers, Jackie led his team to win the National League pennant several times and to achieve the greatest victory of all: winning the World Series.
In addition to breaking the color barrier in the world of athletics, Jackie became a vocal champion of civil rights. In 1949, he testified on discrimination before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Additionally, Jackie wrote letters to every American president who held office between 1956 and 1972 expressing various levels of discontent about his belief that not enough was being done to advance the cause of civil rights. In his lifetime, Jackie was not only a voice for African-American athletes, he was a voice for the nation.
A yearbook page for Jackie Robinson states “Remember when . . . you stood up to racism and just played baseball?” What image would best illustrate this?
an image of Jackie Robinson sliding into home base
an image of Jackie Robinson ignoring angry crowds
an image of Jackie Robinson writing letters to the president
an image of Jackie Robinson standing with his teammates

Highlight all instances of parallel structure. there is no longer any room for hope. if we wish to be free—if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending—if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight!
