Answer:
- <u>Peak</u> is the word that best accomplishes the sentence.
- '<u>Climbing for hours</u>' is the context clue that supports the above answer.
Explanation:
In the given sentence, the most appropriate word to complete the sentence would be 'peak' as it appropriately goes with the context. The word 'peak' <u>implies 'end or top of anything' which is contextually relevant</u> to the meaning of the sentence implying that 'the hikers finally reached the top(of the mountain) after hours of arduous efforts in climbing it<u>'</u>. Thus, the other two words become insignificant(contextually).
<u>Context clues are described as the hints or clues that are provided by the author in order to assist the readers to determine the meaning of an unusual word</u>. These clues usually involve synonyms, antonyms, explanation, etc. Thus, the phrase 'climbing for hours' functions as the explanatory context clue that defines the hikers approach to reach at the top i.e. 'peak'.

Answer:
Well there are 3 most common rhetorical devices
Those of which would be
Ethos: Well this is usually in the form of credibility and shows how reliable a source can be when using this device. Like for example if your gonna quote an article form “George Washington”, its gonna be more eye appealing to others due to him being one of the most famous genrals in US/ history and being the first president and all.
Pathos: This is when your usually combining a feeling and making the reader feel something like for example portating guilt or Sadness could be a useful tool.
Logos: This is just straight up facts, you support your evedine with reliable #1 and Jsut back it up with a ton of facts but don’t use too much or it would just be boring.
Well theres some pathos in this but I would say mainly ethos becuase it shows uncle sam, one of the most common faces in american cartoons and propaganda. It shows a lot of credibility.
Hi,
I would say the tone is C, confused. I'm not entirely sure though, because it sounds as if the author is also frustrated; but I'm leaning towards C.
Tell me in the comments if you get it correct. Good luck!☺
