The correct answer is B. A hypophora is when the writer asks a question and answers it immediately.
Answer: The right answer is the B) "What's the fundamental challenge of our day? It is to end economic violence. Plant closing without notice, economic violence. Even the greedy do not profit long from greed. Economic violence."
Explanation: In this excerpt from Reverend Jesse Jackson's inspirational and remarkable speech, which he delivered at the 1988 Democratic Convention, there is an example of hypophora (from the Greek "carrying it under"), a figure of speech where the speaker poses a question AND then answers it, and which, therefore, is different from a rhetorical question, where the question is posed but not answered. Jackson asks his audience what is the fundamental challenge of our day, and instead of letting them wondering, he ventures and shares with them a straightforward and sincere answer, which shows his confidence, his authority and his control in the subject, as well as his attempt to engage them, have a dialogue with them and spark their curiosity.
