Answer:

Yet every one of these disasters has actually happened somewhere, and many real communities have already suffered a substantial number of them. A grim specter has crept upon us almost unnoticed, and this imagined tragedy may easily become a stark reality we all shall know.

Explanation:

Pathos refers to an appeal to emotion. This is one of the three most common rhetorical appeals, the other ones being ethos and logos. In this case, the author uses pathos in the last sentence, as she uses extremely negative and hopeless words to describe the future. The use of words like "grim specter," "imagined tragedy" and "stark reality" is meant to appeal to the readers' emotions and in this way make the argument more persuasive.

What is unique about Kurt Wenner's artwork? Explain linear perspective, interposition, and texture gradient. How did Wenner use
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kurt Wenner's artwork is very unique for many reasons. He creates artwork with optical illusions that allow them to seem as though they are part of our own 3D world. Wenner accomplishes this by using many techniques such as linear perspective, meaning that depending where the person was viewing the painting it would seem different, but if they viewed from a specific point it would appear as though it was in our 3D would due to the elongated style of painting. Another technique that Wenner uses is interpositioning, he places objects in the painting strategically in order to make them appear to have depth. All of this coupled with texture gradient which makes objects look incredibly detailed and realistic makes the paintings come to life.

How are satire<br> and sarcasm different​
Ber [7]

Satire is the use of humor or irony to point out flaws in something, whether it be fashion, a person, but it is commonly used in politics.

Sarcasm is using irony to make something said hurtful.

Satire is used to point out flaws and be hurtful, Sarcasm is used just to be mean and hurtful, it isn't used to point out flaws. That would be your difference.

What might be some of the results of not marketing to children?​
kolbaska11 [484]
Marketing serves to persuade consumers to purchase a particular product or use a service. The advertising often targets a specific group, such as senior citizens or young, single people. Companies selling toys and other youth-oriented products often use psychological tactics to manipulate children into wanting the product. While often effective, marketing to young children comes with disadvantages. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, a child under eight lacks the ability to understand that the advertisements are solely there to sell them on a product. Young children are more likely to believe anything they hear or see in advertising because they aren't cognitively able to realize the selling purpose. Children don't understand that advertising claims are sometimes embellished or emphasized just to make the sale.
