The fallacy of <em>logos</em> is "the last time it rained, our local sports team won. It is raining today, so they will win tonight". It's logos because in order to persuade a target audience it uses a statement empowered by logic. The logical reasoning suggests that if the last time the match was played was raining and they won, now that it's raining again, the will win again. The logical thought is that <em>when it rains, the local team wins.</em>
The fallacy of <em>pathos</em> is "If we don't pass this environmental protection bill now, the world will probably end soon". It's pathos because this fallacy tries to persuade by provoking certain emotions or feelings to readers. In this way, the statement is more appalling to the reader and it feels more emotionally attached to it. By talking about the end of the world, the writer is<em> </em><em>trying to evoke feelings of awareness, sorrow and frightening.</em> So by provoking these feelings, <em>readers may become more aware and concerned</em> about the environmental changes that the human kind needs to make now in order to prevent the complete destruction of our world.
The fallacy of <em>ethos</em> is "My favorite teacher said that we should vote for Mr.Martinez, so I believe he is the best". It's ethos because the writer is convincing people by the credibility or authority of the speaker. In this case, the teacher represents a credible and respectful figure. So the reader <em>decides to vote for whom the teacher said just because THE teacher said that.</em>
A, "<span>growing urbanization meant that cities were overcrowded and social problems were growing" is the most plausible answer.
Hope this helps! :)</span>
Answer: The answer is A.
Explanation: Because I took the test.
Answer:
d. Each person has the fundamental right to have absolute control over his or her personal information
Explanation:
When we take the title of the speech into consideration - "Our Privacy on the Internet Should Be More Protected" - the best option of a thesis statement seems to be letter d. A thesis statement consists of one or two sentences with the purpose of informing the reader about the author's opinion and the subject of what will be read, as well as guide the author so that they won't lose focus.
Letter a would be a good option if it didn't mention "genetic information". That topic takes a very specific detour away from the subject of privacy. They can be related, but that is not what we expect after reading the title.
Letter b is not a statement at all. The question asked has the intention of making the reader curious, but does not state the author's opinion.
Letter c is not a thesis statement due to its length. It already develops the argument, which should be done in the speech or essay's body.
That leaves us with letter d. It's a one-sentence statement in which we find the author's opinion and which gives us an idea of what will be developed in the speech or essay.
<span>1. </span>I believe the correct answer is B. The stream of
consciousness technique.
This excerpt is an
example of Woolf's use of the stream of consciousness technique as an
experimental narrative form. This technique allowed her to present inner though
process of multiple characters throughout the text (in this excerpt the
thoughts of Septimus).
<span>2. </span>I believe the correct answer is C. intense
anxiety and fear.
From a description of
the scene, we are transported into the mind of the harrowed war soldier,
Septimus. The words such as wavered, quivered, burst, and throb, give us a
sense of his intense anxiety and fear.
<span>3. </span>I believe the correct answer is: C. "Things
fall apart; the centre cannot hold."
The description of
the scene is reminiscent of the following line from a poem “The Second coming”
by William Butler Yeats is "Things fall apart; the center cannot
hold." Septimus believes that he is the one stopping the world from
bursting to flames:” It is I who am blocking the way, he thought. Was he not
being looked at and pointed at; was he not weighted there, rooted to the
pavement, for a purpose?”
