Answer: A) Parallelism.

Explanation: parallelism is a literary device that consists in the repetition of the grammatical structure of different words or phrases in a sentence or paragraph, in order to emphasize an idea or to create an impact in the audience. In the given passage from the Declaration of Independence, we can see an example of the use of parallelism, because all the elements of the list have the same structure (the use of a verb and the pronoun "our") and tense (plundered, ravaged, burned, and destroyed).

How does ellis define middle-class english women, and why does she address her book specifically to them?
g100num [7]

Ellis defined middle-class English women as the “pillars of family life”.

She addressed her book specifically to middle-class English women because, according to her, it is not appropriate for them to be “exempt from the domestic duties which call forth the best energies of the female character”, despite being employed in jobs related to trade and manufacturing,

Ellis wrote beautifully about the social and familial responsibilities of women in her society. In keeping with her time, Mrs. Ellis asserted that women also needed to uphold a high moral standard and seek out noble causes to which they might devote themselves. Ellis represents Britain's rich class; the common classes would hardly recognize Ellis' beliefs and actions.

What does Orwell's word choice of "scrutinized” imply
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The word “scrutinized” suggests that the government is not just idly watching the movements of its citizens, it is actively looking and picking apart everything they do to watch for any sort of infraction. The word “watched” would have had a much less ominous, as well as less active, feeling.
