Which excerpts from Queen Elizabeth's Response to Parliament's Request That She Marry, rely on a rhetorical appeal to
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The excerpts which show that Queen Elizabeth's response to the Parliament's request was rhetoric are:

1. The realm shall not remain destitute of any heir that may be a fit governor, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm.

2. For though I be never so careful of your well-doing, and mind ever so to be, yet may my issue grow out of kind, and become perhaps ungracious.

Explanation:

Queen Elizabeth responded to the parliament quite persuasively. She appeals using logos to persuade the audience and make her point clear to them. She convinces them that she is capable enough to rule alone. She appeals them to give her strength.

She said that Parliament should not worry that she is not married or doesn't have any child. Having one doesn't guarantee that the heir would be competent enough to rule. She is herself quite capable to rule effectively and is a capable leader.

Select the correct answer. Which literary technique does the poet use in these lines from Beowulf? That [sword] was not useless
Rzqust [24]

The Poet uses litotes as a literary technique in the sentence That [sword] was not useless to the warrior now from Beowulf.

Litotes is a technique that communicates in a positive message through a negative structure, we can see in the sentence the use of was not, but the general meaning is a positive one saying that the sword was in fact really useful.

The other options are not correct because those techniques make reference to sounds and metrics or use of a combination of words no the general meaning of a sentence.
