English

Artist 52 [7]3 years ago
4 0

The statement best explains the type of appeal the author is using in this passage is the option B. The author is making an appeal to ethos by providing facts and evidence to support his argument. The first reason to confirm this, it's because in the passage is clear the intention of showing the importance of learning about other cultures and maintain them and ethos is the closest concept to that meaning. - Ethos: Habits, traditions, costume. Besides, the author presents the government information to strengthen its argument.

Answer: A. The author is making an appeal to ethos by referrig to respected institutions such as the U.S. Congress.

An appeal to <em>ethos</em> is one that relies on the moral advantage that an argument has due to the person who supports it. In this case, the author is telling us that his argument is to be defended because it is supported by institutions such as the U.S. Congress and the Constitution. Congress has established that "Indian Education" is valuable, and the constitution has established the students' rights. This increases the persuasiveness of the argument.

What conflict occurs in the passage?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

The conflict that occurs in the passage is:

<u>an external conflict between the mother, who wants to  show off her famous daughter, and the daughter, who  feels used.</u>

Explanation:

"Rules of the Game" is a short story by Amy Tan. The main character is Waverly Jong, a young girl who becomes an excellent chess player. Waverly is American, but her parents are Chinese immigrants. Her mother, in her broken English, teaches Waverly that the strongest wind cannot be seen, that patience and silence are powerful in defeating one's opponent.

Waverly is extremely intelligent and becomes a sort of child genius when it comes to chess. As a result, she is treated differently at home, being freed from her chores, excused from the table, and having the bedroom for herself. Still, her mother's actions bother her. Her hints at the way Waverly plays are nonsensical, and she feels proud as if she had taught her daughter how to play. Waverly feels used when she goes out shopping with her mother. She is introduced to everyone who will hear "This is my daughter Wave-ly". Her mother wants everyone to know she has a talented daughter.

<u>The conflict here is external, meaning it happens between the two characters, not within them. Waverly shows her emotions, but is misunderstood. Her mother feels offended, thinking her daughter is ashamed of being related to her. They are incapable of understanding each other, of communicating their feelings effectively. Waverly realizes her mother is the strongest adversary she will ever have, but she is smart enough to remember the lessons. At the end of the story, she is carefully planning her next move in life.</u>

Why do authors reinterpret familiar stories?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Authors reinterpret familiar stories because

Option A. To use shared references that allow the audience to feel more

connected to the story.

Explanation:

Authors refer to familiar stories so that they connect with the audience better. Audience already knows a story and when an author reinterprets that story, audience can better understand his version. They can understand his point of view by use of the shared references of that story which they are aware of.

He doesn't do this to improve the story as per option B. Also, he doesn't use simple dialogue in different languages as Option C. Option D is also incorrect which says that author wants to show advancement of literary and artistic tradition.
