Answer:

The answer is indeed letter B. Many citizens are upset by our lack of participation.

Explanation:

We have a first-person point of view when the author or narrator of a literary work includes him/herself in what is being said, and tells events from his/her own point of view. In this case, first-person pronouns are employed - I, we, my, our, me, us etc. Compare the examples below:

- Joshua and Mike thought it was a bad idea. They decided not to do it. --> third-person point of view

- Joshua and I thought it was a bad idea. We decided not to do it. --> first-person point of view

Among the options provided, the one that presents a first-person pronoun indicating a first-person point o view is letter B. Many citizens are upset by our lack of participation. We can assume the author of this sentence, along with other people, did not participate enough at some event. Citizens are upset with the author and the others.

Answer: B) Many citizens are upset by our lack of participation.

Explanation: when writing a text or sentence, an author can use different types of narrator (or points of view) depending on the effect he/she wants to produce in the audience. From the given options, the one that lapses into the first person point of view is the corresponding to option B: "Many citizens are upset by our lack of participation" we can know this by paying attention to the pronouns used (in this case the pronoun "our" tells us that is a first person perspective).

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are a few viable answers to this question.

What we know of Eva is that she has her veterinary license, and currently has her own practice open. Even though it is not specified in the text, we can infer that Eva does have lodging in an apartment or rental home. This makes saving to buy a house over a period of time less urgent since she does currently have a place to live, even though she would like to eventually own her own home.

I feel that the best choice is option #3, she is prioritizing her goals and adjusting from a short-term to a long-term goal. Investing in a home takes a lot of time and saving. Since it is not specified how much student debt Eva has, we can assume that with her practice open, she will be able to pay off her student loans in a timely fashion, as well as save money on the side for a home. Option #4 could also have a case made for it, but I feel that option #3 is the best option.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Ethos

Explanation:

The speaker includes himself and members of the public for those primarily responsible for being concerned with the price of tuition charged to students. This represents the use of ethos, as a rhetorical resource that allows the speaker to present thoughts, positions and attitudes that place him on the same level as the audience, because they equate his character and identification with that of a collectivity.
