Answer:

Rhetorical questions.

Explanation:

Patrick Henry's "Speech to the Virginia Convention" was intended to persuade Virginian politicians through these <u>rhetorical questions</u> in order to induce the readers' thinking into the argument to emphasize a particular point, idea or perception. These questions are usually employed as a thought-provoking tool to subtly influence the audience. <em>These questions tend to elicit their thoughts and strong emotions and their answer would provide support to his central argument.</em> Thus, the rhetorical question would best describe and exemplify this quotation.

Describe the condition in which the narrator finds his friend roderick usher.
stepladder [879]
I found this on line hope it helps 
<span>The narrator arrives on the premises expecting that Roderick will be ill given the letter that he previously received from him.  He says that the letter itself speaks to the nervous agitation that Roderick must be experiencing and expects that Roderick will not be in his right mind.  When the narrator finally makes contact with Roderick he is absolutely shocked by the changes that Roderick's appearance has undergone.  Roderick greets the narrator with such "vivacious" warmth that the narrator is taken aback, questioning the sincerity of the greeting.  However, upon looking more carefully at Roderick the narrator is reassured of the genuineness of his expression and settles down to take in Roderick's full appearance.  Upon examining Roderick's face, the narrator is shocked at the dramatic shift in the narrator's boyhood good looks, comparing Roderick to a wasting away corpse but still maintaining some of the natural appealing qualities which he once bore.  It is clear that Roderick was once a vivacious and attractive individual but now suffers from great anxiety and misery given his condition.  In fact, the narrator is so surprised by Roderick's current condition that he doubts the fact that it is the same person that he once knew.  Moreover, Roderick's actions add to the perplexing nature of Roderick's appearance.  The narrator describes Roderick's inconsistent behavior as being full of life at one moment and absolutely sullen the next.  This strange behavior reinforces previous characterizations of Roderick as anxiety-ridden and ill, which is a dramatic shift from his previous character.  </span>

Which statement best explains why the animals readily accept the increased workload?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

They believe that all of their work benefits the community of animals and ultimately is for the best.

Explanation:

George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is an allegorical play showing how a group of farm animals rebelled against their human master to form their own government. The play deals with themes of greed, a struggle for power, hierarchy, corruption, equality, etc.

In Chapter V, Napoleon declared his intention to build the windmill which meant everyone must put in extra work. This meant that they will have to do their usual work added to the workload of constructing the windmill. But the animals accepted that without any complaint. Chapter VI starts with the statement<em> "All that year the animals worked like slaves. But they were happy in their work; they grudged no effort or sacrifice, well aware that everything that they did was for the benefit of themselves and those of their kind who would come after them, and not for a pack of idle, thieving human beings."</em>

This shows that the animals readily accepted the increased workload because they believed that it is for the benefit of the whole community and their future generations.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
