Answer:

- Grab the attention of colonists who may not understand the urgency of his cause.

Explanation:

Repetition is one of the most commonly employed literary device that involves repetition of words or phrases in order to emphasize a point and enhance the clarity and understanding of the content or ideas proposed.

'Common Sense' by Thomas Paine is acknowledged as one of the most influential essays in the US history. It proposes crucial arguments that challenged the entire structure of the British government and challenged its tyrannical norms and denial of the basic human rights to the citizens of the colonies. Paine employed a variety of techniques to persuade the US audience to demand freedom and a democratic government.

As per the question, the repetition of 'ye' exemplifies the author's purpose to 'grab the attention of the colonists to make them understand the urgency of the cause' and persuade them(colonists) to demand their rights and freedom.

Helppppp!! Pleaseeee!!!! What is the meaning of "exotic foods"? I'll give 15!!!
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Exotic food is food that a person finds strange and/or unfamiliar. Exotic food can be unusual types of meats, fruits, vegetables or spices or it can be the way that the food is prepared.

Exotic foods are generally foods that are not native to your country. Exotic foods are not foods that you find in most dishes. Spices are a great example of exotic foods. These can add fragrance and flavor. Rose water or flowers are also exotic. Asian food can contain spices and leaves that you rarely see. As our food tastes expand many foods that used to be exotic are more common. Papayas, mangoes, kiwi, jicama, and cilantro used to seem exotic. Even saffron, though expensive, was rarely seen or used. Lychee nuts, lemongrass, and miso paste ten years ago were also rarely used. Make a visit to an Asian or Latino market for exposure to so many exciting and delicious exotic foods.
