In this excerpt from President Kennedy of the 1963 Civil Rights Address, he emphasizes his point most by using anaphora to emphasize the lack of equality. Anaphora is a literary and rhetorical device that consists of the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of sentences or clauses. It is used to underscore the importance of certain ideas and to inspire, encourage or motivate the audience. Because of the repetition, it is likely to be remembered long since. In this excerpt, the President repeats "<em>It ought to be possible</em>", as a way of saying that equality has to be a civil right for <em>all Americans</em>.

Which two parts of this excerpt from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim’s Progress show that the central character is devoutly religious
ValentinkaMS [17]

The two parts of the excerpt that shows the central character is devoutly religious and God-fearing are:

"The man therefore read it, and looking upon Evangelist very carefully, said, Whither must I fly?" This shows that the central character is willing to go the path that Evangelist advises him to, it's something that he feels he wants and must do.


"Then said Evangelist, 'Keep that light in your eye, and go up directly thereto: so shalt thou see the gate; at which, when thou knockest, it shall be told thee what thou shalt do.'" This shows that the central character is willing to follow Evangelist's instruction because of both the character's name and where he is saying he should head.

Flair - when somebody does something with what seems natural talent. Doing something amazing


David Copperfield has a flair for captivating illusions

People can have a flair for drama, style, humor.

A knack.

Having a flair for style would mean you were not poorly dressed as a non-example.

People that practice really hard to the point of proficiency will appear to have a flair for the thing they have practiced.


Sorry for the disjointed thought stream in this post, I apparently lack the flair of organized thought today.
