What is the authors purpose in both patrick Henry’s speech and Thomas paines common sense?
Makovka662 [10]

The author's purpose in both Patrick Henry’s speech and Thomas Paine's common sense is discussed below.

<h3>What distinguishes Patrick Henry from Thomas Paine?</h3>

Thomas Paine employed a sardonic, formal tone, whereas Patrick Henry used a furious, yet emotional tone. But in the end, Patrick Henry's delivery worked better at persuading American colonists to support independence.

The best course of action is to PERSUADE THE COLONISTS TO RESIST the BRITISH RULE.

When the British were in charge of the colonies, these two authors published their writings. The main goal of the writings of these two authors is to persuade the colonists that refusing to rebel against the oppressive British authority serves no useful purpose and that doing so is the only option for them to achieve independence.

Need help with this please
meriva

Okay. I hope I'm right with this

1.) Princes is showing ownership so it's princes' rescues is rescue's and dragons is dragon's

2.) Chocolates would be Chocolate's, and again, ownership, mothers is mothers'

3.) You don't put an apostrophe in takes because you don't put apostrophes in verbs.  There is no apostrophe in minutes because it's telling how many minutes it takes to get somewhere. Of course in a sentence like, "Let's have a minute's talk," you would place an apostrophe but not in this case. (Not sure about this answer) And suns you would put an apostrophe after the s because it is again showing ownership.

4.) Don't put an apostrophe in lilacs or curtains because grammar rules are weird. But you do put an apostrophe after the s in rooms because it's the rooms charm. The room owns that charm and it's talking about just one room.



Hope this helps. I don't know if everything I've said is right but I've done my best.

Need help badly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
trasher [3.6K]
The authors purpose for writing this was to discuss of the different Apollo programs, the type of missions they had and what they did.

The author emphasizes on what the Apollo missions were about and how long they were. The author emphasized on these details to show that the moon landing came in steps and didn’t just happen on the first day.

The methods the author used was dates and they helped by showing us how long the missions took.

The authors point of view is in third person, this point of view affects the meaning of the text by showing that the author did not have first hand experience about the Apollo missions. This makes the text more informative as for the author to know these exact details they would need to do extension research.

Which kind of pronoun is the underlined word?
romanna [79]
I see only two pronouns here: "you" and "I" - they are both personal pronouns, so the correct answer, whichever of them is underlined, must be "personal".

Some more information that might help:" a reflexive pronoun usually ends with -self, for example: oneself.

A demonstrative pronoun is for example "this"
