Answer:

Using the baby plays into a human instinct to protect young children from harm.

Explanation:

Smoking is an unhealthy habit that does not only affect smokers but those around them as well. The effect smoking has on health and its consequences are usually not enough to get people to give up this habit, as many simply ignore the warnings shown on the cigarette packaging. The given poster uses a different approach - it reminds people that smoking is harmful not only to them but children surrounding them, too. Being protective over children is a part of human nature, and the creator of the poster relies on that instinct.

In three to the four sentence explain how repetition affects the story told in this part of Gilgamesh

seropon [69]

Here is what i know hope it helps. repetition is a frequent technique the author used in the Epic of Gilgamesh, as is the theme of duality. Repetition reinforces themes present in the story, or attributes of a character. Sometimes repetition can also draw contrasts between different events or characters. Besides reinforcing elements in the story, repetition also suggests that these stories may have had a strong oral tradition and were largely passed down in this manner before being committed to these tablets.

Which statement best explains the paradox in the excerpt? It is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition.

tatiyna

This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the excerpt from Dispatches.

By autumn, what had begun as an adventurous expedition had turned into an exhausting, indecisive war of attrition in which we fought for no cause other than our own survival.

Which statement best explains the paradox in the excerpt?

a. it is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition.

b. it is unusual that soldiers should ever be forced to fight merely to survive.

c. it is surprising that the expedition turned out to be so exhausting and difficult.

d. it is unfortunate that the soldiers did not have the easy time they had anticipated.

Answer:

The statement which best explains the paradox in the excerpt is:

a. it is odd that war should ever be viewed as an adventurous expedition.

Explanation:

A paradox can be defined as a statement that at first may seem to contradict itself or simply to be absurd. We all know how horrific war is. Battles involve suffering, pain, trauma, killing/dying, or becoming forever disabled. For that reason, it seems absurd that someone would describe war as "an adventurous expedition." An adventure is often an activity seen as both exciting and dangerous. However, it is not fatal. We do not expect to go on an adventure and die.
