Read this excerpt from "The World on Turtle's Back." These two brothers had creative powers, and with these powers they took cla

y and modeled it into animals. They used these animals to contend with one another. Each brother created a more powerful or more cunning animal than the next. They also created fruits, plants, and medicines for good and for evil. Finally, the right-handed twin made man. It is unknown whether or not the left-handed twin assisted in the creation of man. Man was the right-handed twin's favorite creation. How does this support the idea that "The World on Turtle's Back" is a creation myth? It explains the origin of people, animals, and plants. It describes the rivalry between the two brothers. It shows that animals and plants can represent good or evil. It confirms that man was the right-handed twin’s favorite animal.

The correct answer is the first option, "it explains the origin of people, animals, and plants.

The second, third and fourth options can't be considered as correct because there isn't a part of the text that can tell us about any rivalry between the two brothers, it also doesn't explicitly say anything about animals and plants representing "good or evil" and the last option definitely doesn't answer the main question.

instead, the first option accordingly represents this symbolic narrative (The World On Turtle's Back). This is a creation myth because it refers to how the world began and how animals, plants, fruits, medicine, and people were created. We can note it when it says:

  • "These two brothers had creative powers... they took clay and modeled it into animals"
  • "They also created fruits, plants, and medicines"
  • "The right-handed twin made man"

What rhetorical device is being used in this example?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The Rhetorical device used in the example is Pathos.

Explanation:

Rhetorical Device is simply a literary tool which helps us to understand the structure and writing style of any particular sentence.

‘The Glass Castle’ is a book by Jeannette Walls where she describes her own life story of poverty. The line, Years from now when all the junk they got is broken and long forgotten,’ Dad said, ‘you’ll still have your stars’ is an example of Pathos rhetorical device. The appeal of this device is based on emotion.

The line depicts how her father provides an justification for not having any Christmas present for his children. There’s a deeply felt emotion in this line. The helplessness of a father and a sadness of his kids.

disa [49]

Answer:

couplet

Explanation:

The couplet, as stated in the question above, is a poem that presents successive lines of similar metrics, rhyming with each other and presenting basically the same number of syllables. Generally these poems have at least two lines of poetry that rhyme and may not have a limit on the number of lines. This type of poem has become very popular in English-speaking countries, as it gives more freedom for accommodation when it comes to the number of lines, but they have some difficulty regarding the number of syllables and the metric between the lines.
