Answer:

Pathos is represented in this work by the sadness and melancholy caused by the tragic death of the main character's father.

Explanation:

Pathos means "suffering and experience". In Aristotle's rhetoric, this translates into the ability of the speaker or writer to provoke emotions and feelings in his audience. Pathos is associated with emotion, refers to the appeal to the emotional side of the target audience. In short, pathos seeks to empathize with the public. When the author shows in the book "A Shocking Accident" all the suffering, melancholy and pain that the character is feeling through the sudden death of his father, the author is able to move the readers and communicate with them through a plot, using pathos.

Read the introduction to an argumentative essay.

Answer: By adding closing sentence

Explanation:

The introduction will be more effective if the writer would add a closing sentence. The main idea of closing sentences is to establish and restates the most important thing about the argumentative essay, to show what are the key and the main idea of that essay.

This introduction needs strength and stable information because these pieces of information are incomplete and they are left hanging. Because it is the argumentative essay it would be good to be clear about what the author is arguing and what is he trying to describe.

Emily: I never felt so alone in my whole life. And George over there, looking so...I hate him. I wish I were dead. Papa! Papa!
Maru [420]
It’s clear that George and Emily feel hopeless in this situation. They do not want to be marry, but they are being forced to. Universality is when something may apply to a large group of people, maybe even everyone, such as universal themes.

Emily and George’s reluctance shows this to many different types of groups. Smaller groups of people who are forced in to arranged marriages or pressured to marry a person they don’t love can greatly relate to this, as they feel trapped in a fate that they don’t like and don’t want to go through with.

However, on a bigger scale, it can also apply to everyone. Every single person on this planet has had moments where they’ve felt utterly trapped and hopeless when being forced to do something or witness something. It could be as small as being called on by the teacher when you don’t know the answer to the question, or as big as being forced to live with someone who you don’t like for the rest of your life.

This reluctance that Emily and George show in their following through with their marriage can be relatable to everybody, no matter on what scale that relatability can be found.
