Answer:
This is an example of pathos! Pathos is a rhetorical device which appeals to the emotions. By having the audience imagine a sad scenario such as this one, the author is employing pathos.
The power (or exponent) of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.
It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number.
In this example the little "2" says to use 8 two times in a multiplication:
82 = 8 × 8 = 64
But power can also mean the result of using an exponent, so in the previous example "64" is also called the power.
Another example: 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
• the power is 4: "2 to the power 4 is 16"
• or we can say the power is the result of 16: "the 4th power of 2 is 16"
The reader sees that there is a great deal of external conflict, especially between Lennie and various people such a Curley's wife, whom he ultimately kills accidentally. George, in his trying to take care of Lennie, often intervenes in the "man vs man" conflicts because Lennie's limited abilities causes him to miss the nuances of life among groups. George does have some internal conflict, since he has to decide whether or not to kill Lennie. He makes the decision to "put him out of his misery" which has not happened yet but would be "external" if he had to face the "mob" after Curley's wife's death.
