In "A Shocking Accident" by Graham Greene, the pathos or sense of suffering and sadness found was the main character's (Jerome) father got into a very tragic accident or death. However it is represented as a 'joke' or a 'laughing matter', for his father died because he was killed by a falling pig.

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.

fgiga [73]

<h2><u>PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST!</u></h2>

Answer:

See below:

Explanation:

A - Lawrence Kohlberg interviewed a group of young men about moral decision making.

D - Preconventional reasoning is based on following one’s moral principles, but Postconventional reasoning is based on doing what is best for oneself.

D - “Once a person begins to think in a Stage 5 way about what benefits the community as a whole, they will almost never go back to a Stage 2 level of looking out for themselves first.” ( Paragraph 16)

B - Kohlberg could understand how people decided what was the right thing to do.

Write a summary of the article “How do we tell right from wrong?”  

--> Sorry friend, you're going to have to write the summary yourself.

I hope this helps! I was not fully sure if the answer was C or D for the third question, but I put D because preconventional reasoning is external (if that makes sense). Have a good night!

- sincerelynini
