Persuading is convincing a group or single person of a belief while proving gives facts and reasons to show belief is correct. something fact based such as in science you can conduct experiments to prove something is true. there are some things many people believe in such as certain religions but you can’t necessarily prove them to be true

Proving is different from persuading; one focuses on fact and why/how it is, while the other is led by bias and emotion.

Proving doesn't necessarily lead to knowledge, most of the time "proving" something is how facts are utilized when coming to a conclusion.

Persuading can lead to belief, though the act of persuasion is mostly seen in commercials, or any act of selling-

We prove things, by utilizing known facts related to the problem/questions

There are strong notions that we believe strongly in and cannot prove, it can be called Bias. An example of this can be but is not limited to: "Guns should be taken away from gun owners because guns 'kill'."

Write a story that ends with i woke up in my bed at home<br>​
OleMash [197]

Answer:

It was the middle of the night. I had just woken up for some strange reason. I checked my watch. 12:00 am it read. I looked out of my bedroom window and saw the moon shining silver against the deep, damp, dark night sky. Suddenly, a strange shape, glinting golden in the marvellous moonlight, moved in front of the moon, blocking it completely out of view. It slowly descended and hovered over our lawn. Then I saw a mysterious man that jumped off and put a pink parcel on our sir walter buffalo lawn.  

I hopped out of bed, and as I did, the strange shape flew away. Something seemed to be calling me towards the pink parcel. Slowly, I moved out of my messy room, and started stepping down the stairs. It was as if a ghost had grabbed me by the hand and was tugging me along.

Outside, it was dark and cold.  

I moved slowly towards the package, picked it up and opened it. Inside there was a little device. I sat down on the wet, green grass and started to fiddle with it. I opened it and turned the disc that was inside. Numbers and letters started appearing. I moved my hand towards the knob at the end. I pressed it and suddenly I was surrounded by people on a beach dressed in grass skirts and with flowers around their necks. They treated me like a queen! I thought I might stay there forever. I was enjoying myself so much when a bright light shone on me.

I woke up in my bed with the sunlight streaming through the window. I looked out of my bedroom window and saw a strange man putting a pink parcel on our lawn. I went downstairs and opened the door.

When I was outside, the man had gone. I picked up the parcel and opened it. Inside was something wrapped in wispy white wrapping paper. On the front it said ‘TO ANNA’ in big bold capital letters. I opened it and screamed with delight. It was a new book from my favourite series, The Menace. I remembered then that it was my birthday and we were going to Hawaii to celebrate. Oh dream, here we come, I thought. It was the perfect start to the perfect day

answer:

I choose quote #2 because it explained how the general used to have kids go into the jungle and then he would find the kid. The kids in this story were all hunted down and killed by the general and the general mentions this because the world is for the strong, the kids in this case were strong but eventually they gave in and the other strong (The general) who found the kids and killed them relates to the second part which states to be taken by the strong. So the genral argues with rainford before rainford gets hunted down in the jungle.

I empathize with a fellow teammate, and the outcome was Positive. I shared with him that our coach loves us so much and he knows the sport so much more than us. Since he knows the game so well, He makes you do the things you may thing is not right. However, it actually is the right thing to do.
