Read the excerpt from "The Story of a Warrior Queen." Queen Boadicea looked so beautiful and fierce as she stood there, with her

blue eyes flashing, and her golden hair blowing round her in the wind, that the hearts of her people were filled with love for her, and anger against the Romans. As she spoke, fierce desires for revenge grew in them. They had hated their Roman conquerors before, now the hatred became a madness. So, when Boadicea had finished speaking, a cry of rage rose from the Britons. They beat upon their shields with their swords, and swore to avenge their Queen, to fight and die for her and for their country. Then Boadicea, leaning with one hand upon her spear, and lifting the other to heaven—prayed. She prayed to the goddess of war, and her prayer was as fierce as her speech, for she had never heard of a God who taught men to forgive their enemies. Which detail in this excerpt reveals heroic qualities and supports the universal theme of loyalty to one's country? Queen

The power of Boadicea is highlighted in this excerpt, using adjectives such as fierce, beautiful, and the imagery of "her golden hair blowing round her in the wind" giving the illusion of someone otherworldly, superior to common beings. Her speech rouses deep passion in the people, it's a call for action that is responded eagerly. Loyalty to the Queen is loyalty to the Country, the soldiers pledge their lives to her, hence they pledge their lives to fight for the country against the Romans. Her rage is mirrored and multiplied, till everybody is willing to die for her, to avenge their country.

How does the pace and tempo change in the stanza "I know the action in the street is excitin" in Hamilton?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The song gets more intense and louder (crashendo which is a music term for getting louder) because Hamilton is referring to how he sees the bigger picture. He realizes that "the action in the street is exciting, but Jesus between all the bleeding and fighting I've been reading in righting. We need to handle our financile situation. Are we a nation of states? What's the state of our nation". He understands that there is more to the revolution than simply fighting.

I hope this helps!

Btw I LOVE Hamilton!

Now that you’ve read and listened to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s "Four Freedoms," compare the experience of listening to a speech to
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Your answer should include these points:

Content: Discuss how Roosevelt uses both logical and emotional appeals. Note how he first explains why some Americans favor “appeasement” tactics, but these actions are both morally and practically wrong: “We are soft-hearted but we cannot afford to be soft-headed.” He also explains how staying out of the war is no guarantee that the United States will remain safe from German aggression, and he cites the examples of Norway, Belgium, and the Netherlands.

Emotional appeals: Note how Roosevelt invokes the four freedoms. He explains how the United States must go to war to protect Americans and people around the world.

Rhetoric: Roosevelt uses repetition effectively throughout his speech:

Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

By repeating the word our, Roosevelt emphasizes that the war is a joint effort that will require “personal sacrifices” from every American.

Parallel structure: The repetition of the phrase “not satisfied” emphasizes that Roosevelt, leaders in the armed forces, and the American people are united in the idea that more must be done to increase the production of armaments.

Tone: Note how Roosevelt varies his tone across the speech. For example, he raises his voice when he says the phrase “everywhere in the world” to stress that Americans will be making sacrifices not only for their own countrymen, but for the world.

Pace: Note how Roosevelt pauses before important words such as healthy, peace time, and victory at the end of the speech to emphasize these ideas.

Which sentence exemplifies the logical fallacy "fear"?
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

If we don't elect Mrs. Smith to the senate, we will definitely see a rise in taxes.

Explanation:

According to Clinical psychologist Rian McMullin, "Logical fallacies are unsubstantiated assertions that are often delivered with a conviction that makes them sound as though they are proven facts." The statement above uses the rise in taxes which is something that people are scared of. The assertion appears to be factual but it simply a campaign style to promote a candidate.
