The correct answer is C. Protest music

Explanation:

In any text, the introductory paragraph is the first paragraph and this introduces or explains the main topic and focus in the text. Due to this, readers can know what to expect when they read the introductory paragraph. In the case presented, the author explains in the introduction many people san protest songs in multiple ways "one lone person with a guitar. They sang in segregated bus stations, picket lines, freedom marches..." and this was the way people show resistance and promoted a cause. According to this, it is likely the text is about "protest music" because the author mentions in the introduction the way people use protest music in different ways, and this is the main focus and context in the introduction rather than oppression, human rights or raising awareness.

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
