  • The rethorical technique used in this excerpt from Thomas Paine's <em>Common Sense </em>is Allusion<em>.</em>
  • Allusion in writing is used to refer to something, such as a person or an event, in an <u>indirect</u> way.
  • Paine makes an allusion to the <u>New Testament in the Christian Bible:</u> When he writes <em>"ye that oppose independence now ye know what ye do"</em>, he recalls the reader the time Jesus said (before dying on the cross): "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do". He meant that the people who condemned him didn't know that he was the Son of God.
  • To sum up, Paine recalls this moment in Christian history so as to show the reader the seriousness of what it means for society to remain under the rule of George III.

A lead that gives the main information in about 35 words is called what?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

I really hope this helps and you can mark me Brainliest!

Explanation:

Narrative leads are the openings of stories, the "hooks" that capture readers and keep them turning the pages. There is no set formula for creating a lead, since narratives span the spectrum of human existence.

A summary lead concisely tells the reader the main idea of the story or conveys its news value. Most journalists and editors believe that the lead should come in the first sentence or first few sentences of a hard news article. Reporters use the term “burying the lead” or “delayed lead” to describe one placed later in an article.

Staccato lead. The staccato lead makes the most of short, pointed little facts spiking the first paragraph, to attract attention. But unless you get right to the point, it will irritate editors. So use this one sparingly (in fact, use all delayed leads sparingly -- but especially this one)... it attracts attention but it can be annoying.

A contrast lead is used at the beginning of that news story which has two contrasting ideas within it.

Read the sentence.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The correct answer is B (to add personification to “his essay” ).

Explanation:

When the author says his essay won first place, he was over the moon, which means his essay was really good, so the author is adding personification to his "essay", BY SAYING it was over the moon. This is personification because his "essay" cannot literally jump over the moon. This is not possible, so by saying his essay was really good, comparing it to his essay was over the moon, the second sentence would be more personified than the first one.
