What basic request does the speaker make of the person he addresses

English
1 answer:
docker41 [41]3 years ago
8 0

A speaker addresses a person for various reasons. For example, s/he may see that the listener is distracted and s/he may want the addressee to focus more on what s/he has to say. Moreover, it can happen in the middle of a speech, because what will follow is really important and s/he feels the need to underline it by asking for more attention from the listeners.  Furthermore, the speaker may address a person because s/he may want to talk specifically to this person about something or in order to give him/her the stand.

So, from all the above, it could be concluded that the basic request of the speaker when s/he addresses a person is to grab the listener's attention.

Rus_ich [418]

Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce was born on June 24 in 1842. He was an American short story writer, journalist, poet, and Civil War veteran.

One of Bierce's book, The Devil's Dictionary was named as one of "The 100 Greatest Masterpieces of American Literature" by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration. His story "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" has been called as "one of the most famous and frequently reproduced stories in American literature"

"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" written in 1890 and originally published by The San Francisco Examiner on July 13, 1890, and was first poised in Bierce's book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians in 1891. The story is set during the American Civil War, and it is known for its irregular time sequence and twisted ending.

The sentence from "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge"  that refers to the reality of Farquhar’s situation in the dream sequence he envisions is:

"His neck ached horribly; his brain was on fire, his heart, which had been fluttering faintly, gave a great leap, trying to force itself out at his mouth."
