Answer:

B. alliteration

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to the repetition of the same letter of sound at the beginning of contiguous words or nearby words. Therefore, the line includes the words <em>gown, grassie </em>and <em>green</em>, which have the occurrence of the initial sound /g/; as well as the words <em>sleeves </em>and <em>satten</em>, which begin with the same sound /s/.

Hi have you read ana Frank? well if you did i need your help... in act 1 sence 3
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Scene 3 starts out with everyone anticipating Mr. Franks signal that everything is fine and that they can break the silence. They don't want to be found, of course. When everything is clear, everyone is relieved. Anne takes Peter's shoes and he chases after her, and ends up getting angry. Peter goes to his room and Anne leaves him alone. Anne talks about how after all day, she just want to move around and dance, and that "there's something wrong with that boy [Peter]." Anne's father dances with her.

Peter feels ashamed when his mother is teasing him about his "little girl-friend" (Anne). The conversation is shifted when Mr. Frank comments how Miep is running a little late. Then, everyone hears a car outside screech. Everyone stops what they're doing to listen. But they hear it driving away, and everyone is relieved. Anne comes out of Peter's room after feeding his cat, and is wearing his clothes. Everyone is amused seeing her, and seeing Peter so angry. Peter calls her Mrs. Quack Quack, trying to distract the others with this. Anne and Peter continue to pester for a while.

Mrs. Frank thinks that Anne has a fever, but decides she's all right. Mr. Van Daan come into the room. They discuss their school work. After Anne asks Mrs. Van Daan if she can try on her coat, they start talking about boys and Mr. Van Daan seems like he's heard all about these stories too many times. Anne and Mr. Van Daan get into a little argument when he's looking for his pipe. Anne accidentally spills milk on Mrs. Van Daan's special coat. Mrs. Van Daan is absolutely furious. The Franks have a conversation about how Anne should be more like her sister, Margot, who is always kind to the guests. Anne is angry with this idea.

Miep finally arrives and everyone gives her their list of things they need. Mr. Kraler arrives as well, which is a surprise to everyone. His visit is rare, but he is a very likable person. He come with some news, that another Jew, a dentist, is in trouble, and needs somewhere to hide. He asks them if he could stay with them.  They discuss where the new guest would sleep for the few days he is there. Dussel, the new guest, meets everyone. Mr. Kraler says that he helps them because he doesn't like the Nazis telling the Dutch what to with Jews. Anne tells Dussel that they are sharing a room since space is tight.

While Anne and Dussel are going to sleep, they talk a bit, and Dussel tells her that he will have to get used to having a room mate since he has no one. Anne tells him the protocols and schedule. Dussel tells her he gets along with children well, so she won't have to worry. They talk and get to know each other a little bit, and get along just fine.

The scene ends.

‘All sport should be fun, fair and open to everyone. These days, sport seems to be more about money, corruption and winning at a
sleet_krkn [62]

1st place for corruption goes to sport.

Fair, fun and accesible. In an ideal world sport would display these imperative qualities that would guide us to a healthier and happier nation. However, capitalism, corruption and greed seem to be the prevailing dark forces shaping and tainting the sport industry. I think we can all agree this needs to stop.

It is outrageous how sport is now centred around income. Why does a footballer earn more than a midwife? I’d like to see Messi free-kick his way into safely delivering a newborn. It is outrageous how sport is centred around fame and pollitics. It is outrageous that sport has began to embody discrimination and exclusive traits.

What message are we sending our increasingly obese population if we support these sports pumped with money greed and corruption? It is undeniable that the commersialisation of these corrupt sports is responsible for more at home arm-chair viewing while the fat deposits itself in your arteries and much less people actually partaking in the sport.

But who can blame them? These armchair viewers really have it all figured. No one wants to partake in sport with its current greedy nature. Not naturally gifted – sport isn’t for you. Not wealthy – sport isn’t for you. With rising fees to even join a gym, let alone a competitive club, partaking in sport seems no less than impossible.

Albeit, I may be passionately over the top and seemingly degrading sport entirely, however this is not my intention. I merely believe sport should adapt a new welcoming attitude making it for everyone and thrillingly fun. Still don’t agree? Listen to the facts. In a survey in 2016 it was found that only 20% of girls over 16 partake in sport, further research showed that this percentage would increase to 80% if it were not for the dauntingly competitive nature of sport. It would be ridiculous to ignore these statistics. The sport industry needs to be changed. It needs to be changed now.

When did ‘taking part is all that counts’ be replaced with ‘second is the first loser’? As an ex-competitive gymnast I can assure you with full confidence that at the vulnerable and impressionable age of 8 I was conditioned as if I were a robot to aim for 1st place; second was failure. Second was me chocking back sobs as the tears stained my pillow. What did this conditioned aggressively competitive attitude cause? Me to win? No, it caused me to quit the sport and feel an unnerving wave of nausea when I so much as see gymnastics on TV.

I am not alone. Sports vile and toxic competitive turn for the worse can only be described as the death of sport, with the sporting leaders and officials dressing its corpse; decorating it as if it is something we should be celebrating. It is time we stopped being ignorant and saw sport for the over commercialised, corrupt and greedy villain it is and not the daydream of fair fun, and accessible opportunities.

Repetition of the word “we” creates an appeal to emotion by showing that patriotism unites people and can help solve problems.

<h3>What is rhetorical technique?</h3>

A rhetorical device is a language technique that uses a specific phrase structure, tone, or pattern of meaning to elicit a specific response from the audience. There are various kinds of rhetorical devices, and each one is a unique tool that can be utilized to create an argument or strengthen an already convincing argument.

Few Types of Rhetorical Devices :

  1. Logos- In this category, devices aim to persuade and convince people using logic and reason. They frequently employ statistics, cited facts, and official declarations to support their claims and persuade the audience.
  2. Pathos- These rhetorical strategies rely on appeals to emotions. This could entail making the audience feel pity or sympathy, or it could entail making them angry in an effort to spur them to action or alter their viewpoint.
  3. Ethos- The goal of an ethical appeal is to persuade the listeners that the speaker is a reliable source, that their opinions matter, and that they should be regarded seriously because they are serious and possess the knowledge and wisdom needed to know what is morally appropriate.
  4. Kairos- This is one of the most challenging ideas in rhetoric, these devices rely on the notion that a certain idea or action has reached its proper time. One of the arguments is how timely the idea is.
