We can use process of elimination to determine the best answer for this.

Looking at answer choice A, this would be a fantastic choice as <em>Frankenstein</em> is a frame story. A frame story is a story within a story. <em>Frankenstein</em> is a frame story because Robert Walton is told the story of the Creature and Victor by Victor, so essentially the entirety of the novel is a flashback. However, the excerpt we have here does not discuss this, so it is not the right choice.

Choice B also make a good choice as this excerpt mentions philosophers in it, however, it doesn't seem so much like a history of philosophy is being given here. It's more like the person is talking about what they did as they worked, which would have greatly interested Victor as he also has a zeal for the same things.

Choice C, while still a good option, doesn't quite fit. It talks about classification, but the excerpt doesn't refer to experiences. Based on context, it seems more likely they are classifying something scientifically.

Choice D is your best answer because it discusses the zeal previous philosophers had for learning and making connections between things. This ties in well with the overall plot line of <em>Frankenstein</em> because Victor is zealous about learning the secret to life and creating it himself.

1. What needs or values does the ad appeal to? How?
TiliK225 [7]
1- Appeals can be devided into, at least, three categories according to <span>Aristotle's rhetorical appeals (ethos = ethics, pathos = emotions, logos = logics). Using this parameter, this add clearly uses pathos as it appeals to different feelings and needs that many people have for acceptance and popularity, and satisfaction. Here you see a consensus of <em>admirable</em> people (baseball players like Bucky Harris, Bob Elliott, Ted Williams, etc.) who use this product, which may lead you to believe that, by using their product, you can look like them. It's also stated in the add that Chesterfield is <em>World's Best tobaccos</em>, which can appeal to people's need for status (if you're smoking the best cigarrette, people will look at you with admiration over the next person who smokes a regular cigarrette, right?)

2- While <em>persuasion by consensus</em> is a type of <em>pathos</em> (emotional appeal) still used today, people nowadays are much more aware of the health risks related to smoking. In our current society, the logic behind people's awareness about this risks out-weights the effect that such a direct influence has on the audience. Therefore, people are much more likely to start smoking because they grew up around people who smoke (slow and constant = naturalization) versus a quick encounter with this type of advertisement.</span>

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

I'm sorry, but I can't really help you. I have a essay if you need it. [This is not copyrighted, I actually made it.

Explanation:

If you ever need a good essay for the theme, "All that glitters is not gold", I have one for you:                                                                                                       Gold is a precious chemical element that emits spectacular glitter. However, glitter can be a characteristic of a variety of substances. These substances are just as important as gold. The wise saying goes “all that glitters is not gold.”. (Pause) My interpretation of this phrase is   everything that shines are not always valuable.  

People act in a charming manner to try to deceive. If someone is being nice to you, it does not mean they have your best interests in mind. They may behave pleasantly, but they might not be telling the truth.

 

Some friends seem nice face-to-face but beware of fake friends. They can talk negatively about you behind your back. (Pause) A person’s heart and mind are like onions, with several layers. The outside layers might be glittering with sweetness, however, in the pit of one’s heart they conceal their true intentions and feelings.

Something too good to be true could be useless! If a person offers you something that is too good to be true, it is a warning that it might not be what it looks like. If someone offers you such a thing, take a step back and think about it. You must be rational and logical before responding. (Pause)

Similar to pyrite, the iron stone that looks like gold, appearances can be deceiving.  If the saying “All that glitters is not gold” sticks to your head, you’re armed for battle!
