Why is the phrase "purple host" ambiguous?
pantera1 [17]
Purple host could be ambiguous, or not clear, because of the figure of speech and the double meanings. Purple host could be taken literally as a host with a skin pallor of purple. But it could also mean that the host is feeling proud, hence they use the color purple as symbolism. Also, it could mean one way or another. Hence, the answer is letter C.

Which phrase from mark Antony's speech best shows that he is using ethos?
Ludmilka [50]
The mode of persuasion "ethos" appeals to beliefs or ideals of a community and also an authority figure's character or credibility to influence individuals through morals.


In the famous play "Julius Caesar", Mark Anthony changed the opinion of the Romans by making them hate Brutus and the conspirators using "ethos" to put their credibility on the spot with irony and sarcasm when he repeatedly calls them "Honorable Men"; on the other hand he praise Caesar's loyalty to him when he calls him "His faithful friend", making people empathize with his character.

Imagine you're writing an appeal to answer if students should be allowed to skip their senior year. Construct a rhetorical quest
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Students have dedicated years of their lives to studying. <u>Regardless of whether students want to pursue higher education or enter the workforce, what benefit does one extra year of studying really provide? </u>Advanced students often take classes at the community college where credits will transfer to a university in conjunction with their highschool work. Those who want to enter directly into the workforce won't learn anything in their last year of school that they will really need.

Explanation:

A rhetorical question is a question that doesn't need an answer. There are many different rhetorical questions that we could ask, but this is an example of what one may look like. Since the seniors want to skip their senior year, we need to show that it isn't really necessary.

In at least one hundred words, discuss Cervantes’s Don Quixote can be seen as an example of an allegory. Use evidence from the t
snow_tiger [21]
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?

Which of the following topics would be suitable for a short research paper?
Margaret [11]

An in depth study of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein would not be a short research paper. Ideally you would have to have a more specific research question/focus on one aspect of the novel. An in depth study is too broad.

An analysis of protagonists in Jane Austen's works once again would not be a short research paper, if it was limited to one or two of her books then yes but not all of them.

A comparison of Homers Illiad and Odyssey once again is too broad a topic and if you were to compare everything in both novels you would be looking at a rather lengthy research paper.

Moby D*ck is full of symbolism and if you could find a way to summarize effectively and succinctly the story and maybe just focus on the actual whale as the subject matter and what it represents in the book you could definitely make a good relatively short research paper out of it.  

Alternatively would be an analysis of Edgar Allan Poe's narrative style in The Black Cat. The Black Cat is a short story and ideal for this type of research paper.
