Answer:
The correct answer is B)
Explanation:
A) First, a clause is an incomplete sentence or a group of words that can't stand alone or one that does not have meaning standing by itself.
B) Furthermore, it must have a verb and a subject.
A verb, if you recall is an action word while a subject is "<em>the person or thing being referred to</em>".
Looking at the clauses in option B we can see that they both meet the above conditions.
Let's see clause one - "<em>And may there be no </em><u><em>moaning</em></u><em> of t</em><u><em>he bar</em></u><em>,
"</em>
It is clear that the verb here is "moaning" while the subject is "the Bar".
It's clear to see that these group of words meet the conditions given in A and B above because left by themselves, they make no meaning.
Let's take a look at the second clause:
"<em>When I put out to sea</em>,"
"I" here is the subject. It is a pronoun. A pronoun is simply a word that can be used instead of the noun. That is a noun can easily but inserted in the place of "I". Hence, we have "I" as the subject.
"<em>Put Out</em>" here is a verb which means to relocate.
So "When I put out to sea" also meets the conditions in A and B above.

In the excerpt from the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson. He used ethos as a rhetorical appeal
through A. by establishing the source of the representatives’ authority. Ethos is a Greek word that means "character" that is utilized to represent the guiding beliefs or ideals that characterize a community, nation, or ideology.
George Bergeron's character is, literally, extremely intelligent, strong, and capable. We know this because of the number of handicaps he is forced to wear by the government. His weights, for example, are so tiring that his wife suggests he risk removing them even thought the consequences are severe for doing so.
Because of his handicaps, George is a character who is incapable of changing, reacting to a situation, or even remembering what he his doing and he is such a rule-follower that he won't use his intelligence or strength to go against the government.
A reader can see that the handicaps put on George are a metaphor for the burdens that the majority of the population of America are encumbered by in real life. While most people don't have pounds of bird-shot strapped to their necks, it is clear that people ARE burdened by great amounts of debt, jobs that pay little, stresses like large families, consumerism, etc that hold them back from participating fully in life. The "handicaps'' of the story are literally meant to show how much weight we are putting on the wrong things in our lives.
Vonnegut uses characters like George to demonstrate how little people are actually living. They are flat, unfeeling, unemotional, and unable to communicate, resist, or change. It is obvious that George SHOULD react to seeing his son's violent death broadcast on national television, but he is completely incapable of doing so because of the handicaps attached to him. The lack of character development, coupled with the excellent description of George's strengths due to his handicaps is what allows a reader to understand that the character is meant to be criticized. Readers are meant to ask themselves, how could he not react? How could he not remember? Why won't he question the ideals of the government? Why won't he risk himself for something that could save his son?
