Pepsi [2]

Answer:

A. To demonstrate Equiano's lack of knowledge about European customs due to living in an isolated part of the continent.

Explanation:

Olaudah Equiano in the autobiography written by him demonstrated all the travails he went through while being transported across the Atlantic Ocean by the White men. In paragraph five, Equiano asked a series of questions to his fellow countrymen on board with him on the ship. He asked about the country of the white men, and if they had their own women. He also asked about how the vessel could go and was amazed when the workings of the vessel were explained to him.

All these show that Equiano had no knowledge of the European way of life because he had lived in Africa all his life.

Read the excerpt from a transcript of a debate.
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

D). While the CDC has mentioned the impact of hunger on students, the CDC has also stated that unhealthy eating is linked to lower grades and test scores.

Explanation:

'Logos' meaning 'appeal to reason or logic' is demonstrated as one of the three artistic 'modes of persuasion'(as Aristotle stated), the other two being ethos(appeal to ethics) and pathos(appeal to emotion). The authors employ 'logos' to convince the audience by offering appropriate logic or reason to accept or refute a claim or idea.

In the given question, option D illustrates the negative claim that employs 'logos' to nullify the positive claim. It disproves the affirmative claim 'hunger is a factor in poor performance in school' by proposing the logical fact that 'CDC has also stated that unhealthy eating is linked to lower grades and test scores' which strengthens the negative/counterclaim. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
