Answer:

A) Stubborn

Explanation:

<em>Inflexible</em> refers to something or someone that is not able or willing to change or adapt their opinions, habits, attitude or ideas, similar to a stubborn person who refuses to change their opinions, habits, attitude, ideas or positions, especially in spite of good arguments or reasons to do so.

In the passage, the sentence "He answered with inflexible humility" conveys that he answered with a determined or stubborn humility, meaning that he had no intention to act without humility.

Why do you believe that you are reliable<br> needs to be persuasive and of high quality and formal
olasank [31]

Answer:

I am a reliable person because I am responsible, loyal, and know how to keep secrets.

People always rely on me since I have never failed with my tasks at work or my studies. They know that I work hard to succeed in my daily duties and always have everything planned to avoid failing at what I have to do if a problem arises.

Another quality that defines me as a reliable person is my loyalty. I stand with the ones that I consider to be my friends or valuable people for their beliefs and actions. In other words, I help them and am by their side on the good and the bad days, supporting them even when no one else does because I believe in them and their potential.

The last thing that makes me a reliable person is that people always come to me to tell me about their problems or secrets because they know that they can trust me. I never have, and would never, divulge private information; even if it keeping other's secrets puts me in compromised positions, I would not tell what the other person has confided me.

I consider that being responsible, loyal and someone who you can tell your secrets are the main characteristics that make a person reliable. Besides, it is hard to find in today's world, but I am lucky enough to have them.

Explanation:

When we write a persuasive essay, we have to convince the reader. To do so, we have to be confident and give clear facts. We have to explain why we are reliable in different paragraphs giving evidence and facts. It is important to make an impacting conclusion where we restate the main points of the essay.

We also write in the introduction three characteristics that define us as someone reliable. This technique shows confidence and demonstrates in a summarized way why we are reliable.

Firdavs [7]

Explanation:

Interesting in<em> “Speech to the Second Virginia Convention”</em> by Patrick Henry we note his use of figurative language to buttress his point and to compel his listening audience. He said emphatically, <em>"We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts." </em>

Meanwhile, Ellen Sirleaf Johnson uses similar figurative language used by Henry, depicting the inaction of the world's government as a form of keep silent. She said,

<em>"the call for the reform of the United Nations...rings louder in its definite silence.. we urge the nations of the world...to bring this long silence to an end."</em>
