The correct answer is the following: <em>option B. It can be said that Jefferson's purpose in the excerpt is to gain sympathy for the American cause.</em> The excerpt provided in the question belongs to the Declaration of Independence wrote by the Founding Fathers of the United States. In the excerpt, Thomas Jefferson, one of the Founding Fathers, is trying to gain sympathy for the American cause by not only focusing the blame on the British monarchy but also by denouncing the British people in general. In the excerpt, Jefferson charges against the citizens of the United Kingdom by highlighting that they all have chosen to look to the other side when it came to the American cause, "They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity".

Examine Dr. Faustus’s status as a tragic hero. Does he deserve this label? Explain your answer. Your answer should be at least 1
Virty [35]

Dr Faustus can be considered a tragic hero for various reasons. Firstly, we can conclude that he is not completely bad or evil, he just makes a critical error and decides to sell his soul to the devil due to his thirst for knowledge. This makes us relate to him due to his imperfect nature and hunger for knowledge and consequently we pity him more. Secondly, he is of high standing and is a great scholar, which makes us question how these things can happen to such people and this makes his tragic destiny seem even more gloomy to us. When we look at Aristotle's definition of a tragic hero where he defines him as someone not 100% good or bad who makes us feel sorry for their miserable fate, the character of Faustus fits this definition perfectly. All in all, his human vices paired with his inquisitive nature are the main reasons why we are obliged to consider Dr Faustus a tragic hero.
