Answer:

C. "That year [1999] was the first time I saw snow. I played in the

wondrous white stuff until my fingers and toes were frozen," wrote

the author.

Explanation:

A. is not the right answer. The verb is the key part of the sentence and can’t be put in the explanation in the brackets. If there is no verb, the sentence without brackets couldn’t be complete.

B. is not the right answer. Snow is mentioned in the first sentence of the speech, therefore it is implied that “wondrous white stuff” is snow, which means there is no need for explanation in the brackets.

<u>C. is the right answer.</u> <u>In this case, the information in the brackets simply completes the initial sentence, giving the readers fuller knowledge of the matter.</u> Yet, the sentences would work on their own even without the information in the brackets. <u>Brackets and the information between them only serve to explain to us what “that year” means for the author.</u>

D. is not correct. The brackets saying I refer to the author are not needed here, as that is explained by the “wrote the author” at the end.

Which line from "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” supports Douglass’s claim that the Fourth of July is not a cause wort
Gelneren [198K]
It is this line: "<span>Fellow-citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions! whose chains, heavy and grievous yesterday, are, to-day, rendered more intolerable by the jubilee shouts that reach them."

Douglass admits that the Independence Day is an important date when a great thing happened for all Americans. But he thinks it is inappropriate to celebrate a nationwide holiday when there are millions of members of this nation who are not free and able to celebrate. This festivity makes those people feel even worse.</span>

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

President John F. Kennedy, known for his diligence and persuasion, called for a news conference about the hikes in steel prices by 3.5 percent. President Kennedy used strategies such as; repetition, diction, statistics and emotional appeals to approach steel companies.

President Kennedy starts off by setting a strict tone, "In this serious hour in our nation's history", to let steel companies know the increase in steel prices is a national problem, moreover, Kennedy informs the steel companies that the problem affects everyone thus repetition. President Kennedy constantly uses "we" to show that even a man of his place and class is affected by this outrage. Afterwards, President Kennedy uses a cause and effect strategy while combining a guilty type of tone in the third paragraph, "If this rise in the cost steel prices is imitated by the rest of the industry instead of rescinded, it would increase cost of homes, autos, appliances, and most other items for every American family", to convey the grace results of imitation of increasing steel prices from the rest of the industry.

Furthermore, Kennedy uses emotional appeals as well as carefully picked diction to persuade the citizens and steel companies to his side. To begin, Kennedy picks specific words that he knows will have a negative and persuasive emotion. In the first paragraph, Kennedy says, “Constitutes a wholly unjustifiable and irresponsible defiance of the public interest", Kennedy intentionally makes steel companies look selfish and show they are more against the "public emotions". In the second paragraph, he states, "...tiny handful of steel executives whose pursuit of private power and profit exceeds their sense of public responsibility can show utter contempt for the interests of 185 million Americans", Kennedy separates the "tiny handful of steel executives" from the 185 million Americans showcasing how insignificant the "tiny handful of steel executives" are and on top of that, it shows how they can't sacrifice their "private power" and "profit" for their "sense of public responsibility". Not to mention, Kennedy implements pathos in the same paragraph by targeting the "war" point of view since America was in the middle of the Vietnam War. He addresses the sacrifices the people are making, "When we are devoting our energies to economic recovery and stability, when we are asking Reservists to leave their homes and families for months on end... at a time when restraint and sacrifices are being asked of every American", while the steel companies prioritizes in this dark hour.

In this impressive speech, John F. Kennedy establishes a very distinctive line between "185 million Americans" against a "tiny handful of steel executives" while also, impressively, including himself with the 185 million Americans, us versus them, to tell his citizens of how redundant and unneeded the price increase of steel.
