What argument does the author counter in this excerpt from Thomas Paine’s common sense

English

Alenkinab [10]4 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The argument that </em><em>Thomas Paine </em><em>counters in this excerpt from his pamphlet </em><em>“Common Sense,” </em><em>highlights that the </em><em>British didn’t and will not provide adequate resources for the growth and development of its colonies. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Their give and take ratio is never equal. Paine believed that they would suck out the prosperity of the colonies and not even give anything in return. So he didn’t have any high hopes about the British providing security to its colonies or contributing to their welfare. That is why he wanted the independence for all the people of the Thirteen Colonies. His pamphlet’s main aim was to give rise to the fire of independence in the hearts of these people.

Of the two central characters, the adjutant and Timothy Lean, which man appears to be more "calm and collected?" Defend your ans
lutik1710 [3]
I think Timothy Lean appears more "calm and collected" than the adjutant. Though he did not like doing things he had to do, he performed them well. He searched the corpse to look for his things. He lifted the body, with the help of the adjutant, and laid it on the grave. He said a little prayer over the grave. He continued covering the grave with dirt after the private got shot. He covered the upturned face with earth to completely bury the dead.
