Read these sentences from the excerpt: An independent pipeline attempted to bring it to Pittsburgh, but to reach the works the p

ipeline must run under a branch of the Pennsylvania railroad. It refused to permit this, and for months the oil from the line was hauled in wagons from the point where it had been held up, over the railroad track, and there re-piped and carried to Pittsburgh. How does the language in these two sentences affect their tone?
1) The phrase "hauled in wagons" conveys an admiring tone.


2) The phrase "under a branch of the Pennsylvania railroad" conveys a scientific tone.


3) The words "re-piped" and "carried" convey an old-fashioned tone.


4) The words "refused to" and "held up" convey a disapproving tone.

Answer:

The language in these two sentences affects their tone because the words "refused to" and "held up" convey a disapproving tone.

Explanation:

The excerpt mentions in its lines that the project itself was not approved, and it gives the information in that mood, besides the words "refuse to" and "held up" are denial verbs that reinforce the same tone of disapproval in the sentences, the other options are not correct because they do not have any supporting elements so say they express a different tone.

<span>4) The words "refused to" and "held up" convey a disapproving tone.

I believe this would be correct. There is no admiration ot old-fashioned tones in the passage. 2 is an unlikely tone</span>

Read the paragraph Nari wrote after researching weather.
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

bandwagon appeals

Explanation:

The paragraph written by Nari contains a fallacy known as bandwagon appeal. The bandwagon appeal fallacy is committed when one tends to buttress their argument by basing it on the what appeals to what everyone seems to believe or like, and therefore the popularity seem to stamp an authority to give an argument validity.

This is evident in Nari's statement when she cited that more people choose tropical locations, and also celebrities also show themselves spending vacations in sunny locations. Nari seem to be committing the fallacy known as the bandwagon appeal, which can also mean appealing to popularity.

Nari should revise her writing to remove bandwagon appeals.

What did the archetype of the devil usually symbolize in American romantic literature?
Nataly_w [17]
Since we are talking about the American romantic period, I'd say that what the archetype of the devil usually symbolizes in the literature of that era is C. the romantics' fascination with the supernatural. 
They were crazy about the dark and mysterious creatures, so maybe that is the correct answer.
