The section that states "this imagined tragedy may easily become a stark reality we shall know" is the best line

4 0

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.

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

<em>She could be in many more circus performances if she'd learn when to stop clowning around.</em>

This is the sentence that contains the pun.

What best explains the pun here is that Kiko is a circus act at a circus show but she does not know when to be serious as she gets so silly during rehearsals.

The show directors believe she would be in more circus performances if she would learn when to stop clowning around.

The pun here is clowning around.

Explanation:

A pun is a play on words. It is a literary device that has two different meanings.

From the answer above, a clown is someone that makes people laugh through making funny faces and jesting. A clown is usually found in a circus.

Kiko works in a circus and because of her playful nature, she doesnt appear in a lot of circus performances.
