75 read on another website but i'll give you the guidelines! excerpt from autobiography of ma-ka-tai-me-she-kia-kiak, or black hawk by black hawk it begins in this paragraph: "i was born at the sac village, on rock river, in the year 1767, and am now in my 67th year. my great grandfather, nanamakee, or thunder, according to the tradition given me by my father, pyesa, was born in the vicinity of montreal, canada, where the great spirit first placed the sac nation, and inspired him with a belief that, at the end of four years he should see a white man, who would be to him a father. consequently he blacked his face, and eat but once a day, just as the sun was going down, for three years, and continued dreaming, throughout all this time whenever he slept. when the great spirit again appeared to him, and told him that, at the end of one year more, he should meet his father, and directed him to start seven days before its expiration, and take with him his two brothers, namah, or sturgeon, and paukahummawa, or sunfish, and travel in a direction to the left of sun-rising. after pursuing this course for five days, he sent out his two brothers to listen if they could hear a noise, and if so, to fasten some grass to the end of a pole, erect it, pointing in the direction of the sound, and then return to him. read through on the separate website! and ends with this paragraph: “you have all witnessed the power that has been given me by the great spirit, in making that fire, and all that i now ask is that these, my two chiefs, may never let it go out. that they may preserve peace among you and administer to the wants of the needy. and should an enemy invade our country, i will then, and not until then, assume command, and go forth with my band of brave warriors and endeavor to chastise them.” at the conclusion of this speech every voice cried out for nanamakee. all were satisfied when they found that the great spirit had done what they had suspected was the work of nanamakee, he being a very shrewd young man. how does the structure of the text develop the author's ideas? by contrasting his grand-grandfather's encounter with the great spirit with his encounter with a white man, the author emphasizes the differences between those experiences. by stating a claim and giving examples, the author shows how the belief in the great spirit led to his great-grandfather becoming chief. by using flashbacks, the author shows how an encounter with a white man led to his great-grandfather becoming chief. by using a narrative, the author shows how the great spirit influenced his ancestors' actions.

Ответ:
I kept on debating whether is was C or D! But it is D.
To sum it all up, I thought C was the answer because all if these things are true: By using flashbacks (first paragraph) the author shows how an encounter with a white man (also first paragraph BUT it was the GREAT SPIRIT that lead him to becoming chief because he told him about the white man) led to his great-grandfather becoming chief (third paragraph)
It's not A because the author isn't contrasting anything. Its not B because the author isn't stating a claim and giving examples, he is actually using flashbacks (supports option C)
It's D because everything about this option is true, By using a narrative, the author shows how the Great Spirit influenced his ancestors' actions (NOT THE WHITE MAN IT WAS THE SPIRIT THAT LEAD HIM TO THE WHITE MAN AND THEN LATER BECAME CHIEF)
So not C its D :P This question really got me.
