Part 3: Claim and Evidence
Nata [24]

Explanation: .  Almost at the start of the story, in the second paragraph, Richards "hastened" (12) to bring his sad news.  But if Richards had arrived "too late" at the start, Brently Mallard would have arrived at home first, and Mrs. Mallard's life would not have ended an hour later but would simply have  gone on as it had been.  Yet another irony at the end of the story is the diagnosis of the doctors.  They say she died of "heart disease--of joy that kills" (11).  In one sense they are right: Mrs. Mallard has for the last hour experienced a great joy.  But of course the doctors totally misunderstand the joy that kills her.  It is not joy at seeing  her husband alive, but her realization that the great joy she experienced during the last hour is over.

           All of these ironic details add richness to the story, but the central irony resides not in the well-intentioned but ironic actions of Richards, or in the unconsciously ironic words of the doctors, but in Mrs. Mallard's own life.  She "sometimes" (13) loved her husband, but in a way she has been dead, a body subjected to her husband's will.  Now his apparent death brings her new life.  Appropriately this new life comes to her at the season of the year when "the tops of trees [...] were all aquiver with the new spring life" (12). But ironically, her new life will last only an hour.  She is "Free, free, free" (12), but only until her husband walks through the doorway.  She looks forward to "summer days" (13), but she will not see even the end of this spring day.  If her years of marriage were ironic, bringing her a sort of living death instead of joy, her new life is ironic too, not only because it grows out of her moment of grief for her supposedly dead husband, but also because her vision of "a long procession of years" (12) is cut short within an hour on a spring day.

Write an essay in which you critique and evaluate how the author of “Tipping System Exacerbates Unfair Pay at Restaurants” build
Airida [17]

The essay required by the above question is intended to assess your ability to interpret, write and identify rhetorical appeals in a text. For that reason, I can't write the essay for you, but I'll show you how to write it.

First, it is important that you read the entire text “Tipping System Exacerbates Unfair Pay at Restaurants,” understanding the arguments raised by the author and the message that the text is intended to promote.

In this reading, you should analyze how rhetorical appeals were established and developed by the author.

Rhetorical appeals are presented in an essay to convince readers about something. These rhetorical appeals are called ethos, pathos and logos. You can identify them as follows:

  • Ethos: It tries to convince authors through ethical and moral concepts, showing the good and bad elements in a society and dictating how individuals should act in a correct, fair and positive way.
  • Pathos: Try to convince readers through sentimentality, showing elements that move the reader and stimulate their emotions.
  • Logos: Try to convince the reader through logical elements, where the reader must stimulate reasoning, interpretation and thinking.

Once you have identified the rhetorical appeals, you can write the essay as follows:

  1. Introduction: Present the article you reviewed, the author and the main subject of this article.
  2. Body: Write two paragraphs showing how rhetorical appeals are used in this article and what the author's purposes are in using them.
  3. Conclusion: Show how effective the use of these appeals is and how important they are in the text.

There are many ways to help others and we must always be looking for both big and small ways to make a difference.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Inessa [10]

The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that I suppose the struggle to live has been so great you could not think much about what you fed the mind, but I came away feeling that right there, in one of the biggest and richest states in the country, we had a big area that needed books and needed libraries to help these schools in the education of the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds.
