excerpt from cry, the beloved country by alan paton
all roads lead to johannesburg. if you are white or if you are black they lead to johannesburg. if the crops fail, there is work in johannesburg. if there are taxes to be paid, there is work in johannesburg. if the farm is too small to be divided further, some must go to johannesburg. if there is a child to be born that must be delivered in secret, it can be delivered in johannesburg.
which statement best explains how the imagery in this excerpt develops meaning?
a) the description of a child being born reinforces the idea that only immoral people make their way to johannesburg; the city is a place of corruption, despair, and sin. the imagery forecasts that terrible things await anyone who leaves the country for the city.
b) the imagery of both whites and blacks going to the city develops the meaning that the city is a place where opportunities are available for everyone and is a place where, despite challenges, justice can be realized in south africa.
c) the description of those who come to johannesburg shows that people viewed johannesburg as a solution to every problem, conveying the desperation of the people while foreshadowing the idea that johannesburg will be overwhelmed by the number of people coming to it.
d) the imagery used to describe farming supports the idea that farming is obsolete and to indicate the sadness that the writer feels that an ancient way of life has come to an end.
