Twain is informing people aboutn how young kids are being pushed to do things they dont want to do. As in peer preasure, cleanrly this young boy should not be smoking or chewing tabacco but he tries because of the people laughing at him about not being able to chew tabacco. Mark Twain is conveying a former problem that we still have but do not acknowledge anymore. This happening will not just affect an individual, but everyone around.

Is the repetition of the words "He has" an example of
Igoryamba

Answer:

C. Anaphora

Explanation:

An analogy is a comparison of things using figurative language/imagery. So Choice A is incorrect.

Logos is a persuasive technique. It appeals to people's <em>logic. </em>The phrase "He has" doesn't appeal to logic. So Choice B is incorrect.

Parallelism means a close connection between two things/two things that mirror each other. "He has" does not parallel anything. So Choice D is incorrect.

A Red Herring is a misleading or false statement meant to negate or confuse the audience. This doesn't make sense in terms of "He has," so Choice E is incorrect.

By process of elimination, we're left with C. Anaphora. An anaphora is the repetion of a word or phrase at the start of several sentences. This makes sense and is the most logical answer.
