The rhetorical devices that President Trump uses in this excerpt are options 3 and 5.

Trump uses overstatement in sentence number 5.

Overstatement is saying something to lay emphasis or give a profound meaning, as to make the point more important than it is. As a result, Trump uses overstatement when he puts emphasis on the word America.

Moreover, he uses repetition in sentences number 6 and 7.

Repetition is a rhetorical device in which the person repeats the same word or phrases several times, to make the idea more concrete or memorable. This device appears when Trump uses the word "protect" multiple times in his speech.

How many personal pronouns are in the passage? (Do not count any reflexive, intensive, or indefinite pronouns.)
kifflom [539]

In this passage we have 21 personal pronouns and they are all “I”

" For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good. So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and make."

Read each statement, and identify whether it conveys an objective tone.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Introduction:

We use an objective tone to provide information in a neutral, impersonal way.<em> An objective tone focuses only in the facts and sticks to the information only</em>, it avoids personal pronouns and judgmental words.

When a text tells us something about the writer (his opinion or how he feels about the subject) we are using a subjective tone.

Answer:

You will regret not listening to me if you fail to use my solution.

  • <em>This statement is</em><em> not written in an objective tone</em><em>, because the writer is expressing his opinion on how the reader will feel if he or she doesn't use the writer's solution. </em>

Extending the library's hours by one hour on weekends will maximize students' ability to conduct research.

  • <em>This statement is </em><em>using an</em><em> </em><em>objective tone</em><em> because it is sticking to the facts and not expressing any opinion on the topic. </em>

Thank you for taking the time to consider this proposal.

  • <em>This statement </em><em>uses an objective tone</em><em>, because it doesn't tells us how the writer feels about the proposal. </em>

Composting waste from lunches is one of my best ideas for helping to save the environment.

  • <em>This statement </em><em>is not using an objective tone</em><em>, it is using a subjective tone because the writer lets us know he is excited for having one of his best ideas.</em>
