Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian, two of his greatest works are: "Resistance to Civil Government" (also known as "Civil Disobedience") and "The Mask of Anarchy". His ideals can be summarized by this statement: “the Government should not have more power than the bestowed by its citizens”.

Henry David Thoreau left the woods to return to civilization for one reason:

He felt he had spent enough time there.

Here is the evidence to support that choice:

it seemed to me that I had several more lives to live, and could not spare any more time for that one. It is remarkable <u>how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves.”</u>

Which best describes the type of appeal used in this part of the speech? a logical appeal an ethical appeal an emotional appeal
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

This is the excerpt the question refers to:

It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time the Japanese Government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace.

The appeal of that excerpt is: logical appeal

Explanation:

In the excerpt, a logical fact is being pointed at: Japan is very far from Hawaii, and because the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was not only unexpected, but also successful (for the Japanese), it must have been planned many days or weeks ago.

An deadly attack on foreign soil, that is far away from home, cannot be rushed out. It needs planning, and that is obviously what the Japanese did.
