I don’t understand the question
I believe it’s C. Not sure but it seems as if that’s what it is.
"His confidence is transformed by the crowd’s response" is the way among the choices given in the question that the <span>author portray Scotty in this excerpt. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". I hope that the answer has come to your great help.</span>
The correct answer should be Leonardo did not intend for his inventions to do harm.
I saw on the Internet that B and D are incorrect, so we have to choose between A and C. A is also incorrect because Leonardo had much greater plans for his inventions that simply to investigate the properties of snow. This leaves us with C as the correct answer - he wanted to advance science, rather than create a bad invention.
The figurative language used in the excerpt "The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds" is the <u>paradox</u>.
The paradox connects in the same situation two opposite things in a construct phrase that together acquires sense: although it seems more logical that when knowledge increases, ignorance reduces or fades away, the meaning of this sentence is that the more we know, the more we discover that yet we have much to learn; Then, the connection of the increasing knowledge with the unfolding ignorance makes sense.
