What is one similarity between diction and jargon ? what is one difference between the two ?
frozen [14]
Diction is word/phrase choice in a writing, and jargon is a set of terms that are used within a specialized group--for example, legal terms used within a law office would be considered jargon. not everyone knows what a docket is, or what it means to be subpoenaed. diction is simply the words a writer chooses when crafting a work.

they're similar in the way that they're both parts of language and they're both rhetorical strategies. jargon can make a person seem more professional, as they use the specialized language of their skill, and that ties into diction because specialized word choice can have a great effect on people.

Answer:

B.  Although the Sultan’s father was cruel, the Sultan’s kindness undoes the harm his father caused to Hasan Abdallah.

Explanation:

Neil Philip retold the story of "The Keys of Destiny" from <em>The Arabian Nights</em>. The plot revolves around the new king Sultan Muhammad Ibn Thailun and his wisdom in ruling the kingdom of Egypt.

In the given story, Sultan Muhammad had just found out about the captive Sheikh Hasan Abdallah who his father had kept in a dungeon for refusing to read the manuscript. When the Sultan recovered the Sheikh, he apologized for what his father had done and returned the manuscript to the old Sheikh. This led to the Sheikh proclaiming <em>"Allah is wise, who makes the poison and the antidote to flower in the same field".</em> By this line, what the Sheikh meant was that the former Sultan may have been cruel, but the current Sultan's kindness undid the wrongs his father had done to him.
