In this passage from “The Minister’s Black Veil,” what is the author expressing about the main character in the story? From “The

Minister’s Black Veil” In truth, his own antipathy to the veil was known to be so great that he never willingly passed before a mirror, nor stooped to drink at a still fountain, lest, in its peaceful bosom, he should be affrighted by himself. This was what gave plausibility to the whispers, that Mr. Hooper’s conscience tortured him for some great crime too horrible to be entirely concealed, or otherwise than so obscurely intimated. Thus, from beneath the black veil, there rolled a cloud into the sunshine, an ambiguity of sin or sorrow, which enveloped the poor minister, so that love or sympathy could never reach him.(A)   People steered clear of the minister because they were certain he was guilty of some great crime worthy of public condemnation and punishment. (B)The minister was afraid to drink at a public fountain for fear that the veil might fall into the water and reveal his face to those who were watching him.(C) People were concerned about the reason for the black veil, but the minister’s strange behavior made them afraid to approach him to comfort him.(D)    Because the minister was constantly feeling sorry for himself, he stayed away from others and refused their sympathy and love.

As what I understand from the excerpt, Mr. Hooper is afraid to see his reflection, may it be in the mirror or water. People's gossips say that maybe Mr. Hooper committed a mischief in which he is very guilty. He seems to be punishing himself by steering away from people and refusing their love and sympathy. The answer is letter D.

I would say:
Our knight lives optimistically in a fictitious, idealistic past. Sancho withal aspires to a better life that he hopes to gain through accommodating as a squire. Their adventures are ecumenically illusory. Numerous well-bred characters relish and even nurture these illusions. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza live out a fairy tale.Virtually all these characters are of noble birth and mystically enchanted with excellent appearance and manners, concretely the women. And everything turns out for the best, all of the time. And so, once again, they live out a fairly tale. Here we have a miniature fairy tale within a more immensely colossal fairy tale. Outside of the fairy tale, perhaps, we have the down-to-earth well-meaning villagers of La Mancha and a couple of distant scribes, one of whom we ourselves read, indirectly. I struggle to understand the standpoint of the narrator. Is the novel contrasting a day-to-day and mundane authenticity with the grandiose pursuits of the world's elites? This seems to be the knight's final clientele. As for reading the novel as an allegory of Spain, perhaps, albeit why constrain it to Spain?


I hope this helps!!!!

Answer:

B. Logos.

Explanation:

It is not ethos, since it does not appeal to ethics. The speaker is simply stating that the tradition should continue because it has continued in the past.

It is not pathos, since it does not appeal to the listener's emotions.

It is B. Logos. The speaker tries to use conservative logic to persuade the listener that America is where it is because Thanksgiving has been celebrated over the years.

Hope this helps!
