The excerpt above is from page 21 of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling. Which passage represents a paraphra

se from the excerpt above?
A wind sweeps gently over the trimmed hedges of Privet Drive, which lies quiet and neat under the dark sky, not a place where one would expect anything out of the ordinary to occur (Rowling 21).
Harry Potter lies outside his aunt and uncle's house, unaware that his life has changed forever (Rowling 21).
While Potter lies outside his aunt and uncle's house, he "[sleeps] on, not knowing he [is] special” and praised all over the country (Rowling 21).
The Harry Potter books are so entertaining because they paint a picture of a world in which we all want to live. We all long to find that extraordinary secret that will reveal our own special quality. Like little infant Potter waiting outside his aunt and uncle's house (Rowling 21), it's just a matter of time until we find that we are, after all, special.

Can someone please help me? :(
TEA [102]

Answer: D

Explanation:

<em>Logos</em> appeals to the audience's logic/reason, <em>Ethos</em> appeals to the speaker's status or authority, making the audience more likely to trust them, and <em>Pathos</em> appeals to the emotions.

The best way to identify ethos is noticing which sentences come from credible sources or smart people. "I'm a doctor, and I can tell you this medicine is safe," something like that. D is the opinion of multiple professional zoologists, so we know it's ethos.

1.Why did Sinuhe feel compelled to leave Egypt? How does this reflect his character?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

1. Sinuhe felt compelled to leave Egypt because he wanted to became a Bedouin and lead a life under a new leader named Renetu who was an Asiatic leader. He was a man not looking for power or authority but a challenging life of a warrior.

2. He yearn to return because he felt the most protected in Egypt where he was always respected for his services to the king. He missed that life of dignity and grandeur in Egypt.

3. The young readers shall learn courage and bravery from Sinuhe who lived like a warrior and died like one. He does not became comfortable in his grand life at the royal palace. He always yearned for change and was calm in adversity.

Explanation:

During Sinuhe exile to Syria, he met his leader Renetu who was a tribal leader and married to his eldest daughter. He also earned the title of commander of military in Syria. However, when he aged, he wanted to go back to his roots in Egypt even after having a family at Syria. One life-changing night at Syria, Sinuhe confronted an attack on his life by a warrior. He fought with him and won but started missing Egypt more. He began to think that power as a military commander in Syria did not bought him loyalty. He wanted to live his last days in peace and was tired of protecting himself in the battle field.

He was fortunate that the king of Egypt also wanted to see him and sent him a letter. He was happy at the thought of going back to his old life and decided to return to Egypt. Hence, he made his eldest son the leader of tribe in Syria and went back to his roots.

This story shows a determination of a man who left everything behind to achieve what he wants. Sinuhe was not only determined but is also tied to his roots which brought him back to his motherland.
