Vonnegut critique the government because of their interference in American society. They wanted everybody to be equal. 

In the excerpt, Hazel praised the announcer for trying and giving his best; making the most out of his God-given talent. 

Vonnegut can develop his critique of American society by saying that everybody is not equal. There are those who are more talented than others. There are those who are more intelligent than others. They should not be afraid to express and flaunt their individuality for fear of making others inferior.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

It is important to understand the demographics of our audience.

Explanation:

Understanding demographics of the audience means to understand what kind of audience it is. We analyse their understanding and beliefs. For example: the way one delivers a speech to children would be different from the way speech is delivered to professors or to corporate people.

Logos is a technique by which audience is convinced with the help of reasoning which has facts and figures. Ethos is a technique in which the speaker establishes a trust or credibility with the audience. Pathos is an emotional appeal or it is way to persuade the audience by evoking their emotions.

Depending on the audience, relevant technique should be used. If one is addressing students, one could use pathos. If one is addressing the farmers for their issues, logos could be used to help them understand things better. Ethos could be used for group of professors as they are learned individuals and should believe in the speaker.

Today's readers have more scientific knowledge than readers of previous
Leokris [45]

The effect today's readers have on reading science fiction stories is, they are less likely to believe the stories could be true.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

This is an era of technology and advancement. If we talk about the readers of previous era, they couldn’t really differentiate between the real ones and the unreal ones while reading stories.

But that’s not the case today, and that’s mainly because almost each one of us try to reason everything based on facts and knowledge.

We’ve sources to get to known about the genuineness of particular books and stories. So today when readers read science fiction stories they’re less likely to believe it because fiction stories in itself are not true.

Please help me ..... to do this essay .. I give a lot of hearts please.....
Ghella [55]

Words in bold are the helping words from the picture.

Title:  Help and you will also receive help

<u> Picture 1:   </u>

It makes me smile when I think about this memory even a year later. It happened in an unexpected place and I was surprised at my own actions. One hot day, I was on my way home after going to a job interview. I was thinking of meeting my uncle for lunch first so I took alternative route through some neatly-cut grass to reach the shopping mall. To my surprise, my eyes spotted something unusual on a patch of grass.    

<u>Picture 2:</u>

Curious, I went nearer to the object and realised it was a wallet. I picked it up and opened to see the contents inside. The wallet contained money and important identification documents belonging to the owner.  

<u>Picture 3:</u>

I was tempted to take the cash for myself and discard the rest of the wallet's contents. However, good overcame the greed in me and I looked for the address in the identification card so I could return the wallet to the owner. When I reached the address, I found him looking anxiously for something outside the door. I called to him and asked what he was looking for.  He told me he had lost his wallet so I showed him the wallet I had found. His face lighted up as he checked the wallet's contents and verified it was the wallet he had lost. He was pleased at my honestly and we had a short chat. I told him I was looking for a job as it was hard these days at job interviews. This young man turned out to be a manager of a big company that I had tried to apply for but got rejected. In return for my good deed, he offered me a job there. I landed a job at a company I liked and it was the best day I ever had.
