Answer:

There are many romantic elements present in 'RIP Van Winkle'.

Explanation:

Romanticism refers to a style used by the author that focuses on imagination and emotion.

Washington Irving's 'RIP Van Winkle' is a story that is set before and after American Revolution.

In the whole story, Irving seems to be fascinated by nature and admires its beauty. He glorifies the natural world. He also talks about freedom and life at countryside away from war and industrialization. He describes the beauty of nature by addressing 'Hudson' river as lordly and uses personification to describe nature's beauty. For instance , he calls the sky clothed in blue and purple clouds.

There is no reason why a person who is fifteen years old should not be allowed to get a driver's license. There is nothing magic
slega [8]

Answer:

Not reasonable because it ignores valid objections that could be raised.

Explanation:

As the author says "There is nothing magic about the number of years in a person's age", it is true there is nothing magic but this is not reasonable because there are two crucial points related to age and driving:

i- development and healthy;

ii- criminal liability and civil responsibility.

Both teenagers and older people have specific age related conditions. Many scientific studies suggest that teenagers don’t have their brain and psychological characteristics fully developed, because they haven’t fully developed their cognition and sense of responsibility they may choose to take more risks when driving such as using cellphone or drinking and driving. On the other side the elderly tends to loose physical strength, having issues with vision, audition or mental abilities, or responding slowly to events and be impaired to operate a vehicle.  

So many states will define a minimum age for driving based in the age of criminal liability and civil responsibility stated in the constitution or in laws. It is not just about parents trust and sense of responsibility but also about laws and substantial knowledge about human development.

What literary term is used when the author states "Ah, Loneliness"?
goldenfox [79]
The author uses the literary device personification in “Ah Loneliness”. Personification is giving a humanlike quality to something that is not human. In the poem the speaker talks to Loneliness as if it is a person that can talk back to him. He even capitalizes the L at the beginning of loneliness like you would the name of a person.
