Which sentence in this excerpt from Thomas Paine's "The Crisis, No. 1" best summarizes Thomas Paine's method of persuasion?   By

perseverance and fortitude we have the prospect of a glorious issue; by cowardice and submission, the sad choice of a variety of evils—a ravaged country—a depopulated city—habitations without safety, and slavery without hope—our homes turned into barracks and bawdy-houses for Hessians, and a future race to provide for, whose fathers we shall doubt of. Look on this picture and weep over it! and if there yet remains one thoughtless wretch who believes it not, let him suffer it unlamented.

Which of the following character traits does the father in “The Bundle of Sticks” most possess?
Schach [20]

Answer:

Wisdom

Explanation:

The father in "The Bundle of Sticks" taught his sons an important lesson on unity. When he noticed that his sons were always quarrelling among themselves, he applied wisdom (the quality of applying good judgement, experience, and knowledge in handling matters) by using a bundle of sticks to teach them an important lesson on unity.

He gave them a bundle of sticks to break individually which they were unable to do. But when he gave them each of the sticks from the bundle, they successfully broke them. He thus taught them that when they are unified no challenge or enemy can overcome them.

5.Complete the dialogue with the words below.
xeze [42]

Answer:

1) Let's

2) thanks

3) free

4) sounds

5) How

6) great

Explanation:

Basically, the choice of the adequate word depends on the context of the sentence.

Sentence 1) expresses a suggestion which means that "Let's" seems like a good choice.

Sentence 2) is refusal and polite way to refuse an offer is by using "No, thanks".

Sentence 3) checks whether someone is available, so we can use the adjective "free".

In sentence 4) the proposal is agreed upon, so we use the phrase "That sounds great".

Sentence 5) is another proposal with the phrase "How about...?"

And finally, sentence 6) expresses confirmation with "That's perfect!"
