Answer:

a."Then came out of the House a grave, tall Man carrying the Holy Writ before the supposed Wizard…"

Explanation:

The letter A shows the passage that most clearly makes the witch trial seem ridiculous. This is because the tall man who will judge the "Wizard" uses the bible in front of the supposed Wizard, as if a book could prevent the supposed Wizard from freeing himself from this judgment, or as if the bible could protect everyone from an ordinary man who was being accused. In short, this passage has a ridiculous appearance, because the Bible is unable to protect or prevent anyone and the accused man could do nothing about his trial.

You have been assigned to compose an essay about the necessity of stopping pollution and littering Which statement would best su
kramer

The statement that best summarizes the appeal of pathos is option D)Numerous industries pollute the environment with no repercussions.

<h3>What is pathos?</h3>

Pathos is a literary device that authors use to cause a great emotional impact on the reader.

In an essay about the necessity of stopping pollution and littering, the statement that has the biggest emotional impact on the reader is option D) Numerous industries pollute the environment with no repercussions.

Since we can see that it is not only one industry, but several and nothing is being done about it. It addresses a bigger part of the problem.

<h3>Incorrect options</h3>
  • Options A and B only address one of the topics, either littering or pollution, so they do not summarize the appeal of pathos since they lack impact.
  • Option C does not address the necessity of stoping pollution and littering, it is stating something about the topic that makes us feel good, but it lacks impact and does not show the necessity of stopping pollution and littering.

in 75 words, discuss how the popularity of such works as benjamin franklins poor richards almanach and the way to wealth represe
Travka [436]

Benjamin Franklin's "The Way To Wealth" signifies the change from the "puritan plain" writing style to the "protestant work ethic" style. In fact, it wasn't just the writing style that changed, it was American values, traditions, nationalism, and culture that changed during this time as well. The popularity of The Way To Wealth showed that more and more Americans were concerned with higher levels of intellectual knowledge, than they did for futile religious dogma and rhetoric. Furthermore, Americans weren't so in love with being a colony of the British Empire, so this area in time also represented a gradual change in the American value of British nationalism, to American nationalism. Therefore, besides the fact that Americans were switching from the puritan faith to the protestant doctrine, they were also beginning to change their values in regards to education and British nationalism. The reason being, they no longer wanted education for the rich, but they wanted it for everyone and they weren't fond of being taxed like crazy by Great Britain.

Most office workers spend more than fifty percent of their time at their desks, for example, they spend their time preparing doc
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Comma splice.

Explanation:

A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are joined together by a comma to be used as a single sentence. This construction is wrong as the two independent clauses need to be joined by a conjunction to be taken as a single sentence or be separated into two sentences.

In the given sentence, the error is in the use of the comma between "de sks" and "for example...". Instead of the comma, we can use a period/ full-stop, thereby making it into two independent sentences.

Thus, the correct construction will be

<em>Most office workers spend more than fifty percent of their time at their desks. For example, they spend their time preparing documents, answering calls, and scheduling appointments.</em>

Why do Giles Corey and Francis nurse appear at the proctors house? This is also from the book “the crucible”
noname [10]

Answer:

They arrived because they wanted to warn John Proctor that their wives being arrested. ... He arrived to arrest Elizabeth Proctor and to search the house for any poppets. He is a warrant and is the person that arrests the accused.

More:

In Act Two, it becomes frighteningly apparent that the accusations of witchcraft have gotten out of control.  Elizabeth Proctor tells John at the beginning of the act that "there be fourteen people in jail," but by the time that Mary Warren gets home at the end of the day, that number has increased to "thirty-nine."  It becomes personal when Herrick and Cheever show up at the Proctor's door to arrest Elizabeth, on suspicion of sending her spirit out to stab Abigail in the stomach with a needle. So, Elizabeth Proctor is chained and put in a wagon with a lot of other women, to be taken to the jailhouse.

Francis Nurse and Giles Corey are also victims to the out-of-control accusations that are occuring; the same night that Elizabeth is arrested, their wives, Rebecca Nurse and Martha Corey are arrested too.  Rebecca is arrested for the "supernatural murder of Goody Putnam's babies," and Martha Corey for supposedly bewitching a guy's pigs so that they keep dying.  Francis and Giles go to Proctor, because they are seeking help--they want to find a way to get their wives freed.  They had already gone to the jailhouse but they weren't allowed to see their wives, so they come to John's house, desperate to come up with some sort of solution to get their wives released, as they are innocent of any crime.

John wants to help, but tells them to go home that night and that they will "speak on it tomorrow."  He needs time to think, to sort everything out in his head.  The next act shows the three men coming to the courts, and trying over and over to free their wives and friends.
