Answer:

"she expressed<em> them </em>imperfectly”

Explanation:

The speaker is not complying with concord. Her reference is ,realised by <em>them</em>,  ambiguous. <em>Them</em> lacks any reference if we move backwards in the excerpt. We may assume <em>them</em> refers to what she had to say,but <em>it</em> shoudl have been used , instead. However, <em>them</em> may refer to <em>thoughts</em> that comes later in the excerpt:"She expressed<em> them</em> imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect.", in these sentences ,which are not coherently linked , we infer that <em>them</em> is referring to <em>thoughts.</em>

I think that the options you have are gloom, temptation, forgiveness and suspicion. The option that you are looking for is gloom which is more inclined to a depressed environment with those words.

What is the authors likely purpose for structuring the essay like the Declaration of Independence
DIA [1.3K]

The most likely purpose for structuring the Declaration of sentiments like the Declaration of Independence is D. to cite the document and support her argument that women have the right to vote.

She states clearly "Now, in view of this entire disfranchisement of one-half the people of this country, their social and religious degradation,—in view of the unjust laws above mentioned, and because women do feel themselves aggrieved, oppressed, and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights, we insist that they have immediate admission to all the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of these United States". She doesn't intend to overthrow the government, or to shame the Founding Fathers, but for women to become rightful citizens of the United States.

Answer:

C. third-person point of view

Explanation:

First, let's break down what first-person, second-person, and third-person point of views are.

First-person is when the narrator is addressing themselves. It's like when you write in a journal or diary. It uses words like "I" or "me" to talk about themself and what happened to them. For example: "I saw a cat on the road to today. It waved to me."

Second-person is when the narrator is addressing to you. It uses words like "you" to talk to the reader. Usually this is used in speeches or commercials. For example: "You saw a cat on the road today. It waved to you."

Third-person is when the narrator is not one of the characters but is addressing them. It uses words like "he" or "she" to talk about the characters. For example: "He saw a cat on the road to today. It waved at him."

Now that you know all the different kinds of point-of-views, we can answer the question. You have to look at the pronouns(he,she,they, etc) that the author is using. If you look back to the passage, the author uses "her" and "she."

This is definitely not first-person because first-person uses "I."

This isn't second-person because second-person uses "you."

This is third-person because third person uses "she." The answer is third-person point of view.
