Based on the given excerpt above, I can say that the what the carp represents here are DEATH and INNOCENCE. Death here refers to how the twenty-pound carp was being treated and innocence refers to the teachers and boarding students who tasted the carp. This excerpt is actually from Yun Wang's "The Carp" and this lyric poem reflects his bad experiences from his father, such as imprisonment and torture.

Read the excerpt from President Reagan’s Address at Moscow State University.
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

In this excerpt, Reagan uses:

C. allusion to give his speech more authority.

Explanation:

Allusion is a figure of speech in which a reference is made to something or someone. It is common for the author or speaker to not explain much, since he assumes the audience knows to whom or what he refers.

<u>In this particular case, President Reagan used allusion with the purpose of conferring his speech more authority. The Bible is a well-known book, even in countries where Christianity is not prevalent. In the U.S., a country largely constituted of Christians, alluding to the Bible is a way to immediately inspire respect and evoke obedience. Therefore, mentioning the wisdom "contained in the book of Genesis in the Bible" helps Reagan's speech sound more authoritative, more worthy of respect</u>.

The answer is "He diminishes the importance of his past, reinforcing the idea that they are all Americans now." The excerpt is entitled "Give me Liberty or Give me Death!". This is all about fighting for the freedom of America from the British colonizers. This is to pursuade the listeners to fight for their country as soon as possible.
