Sentence 1 should have a question mark instead of an exclamation mark
Answer:
The use of counterclaims
Explanation:
According to a different source, these are the two excerpts that this question refers to:
Read the excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr.'s "The American Dream" speech.
<em>In a real sense, we must all learn to live together as brothers, or we will all perish together as fools.</em>
Now read the excerpt from the Governor George Wallace statement.
<em>The true brotherhood of America, of respecting the separateness of others . . and uniting in effort . . has been so twisted and distorted from its original concept . . .</em>
What technique makes the two excerpts effective when used together?
The technique that makes these two excerpts effective is the use of counterclaims. In these passages, the speakers suggest main ideas. However, these are strengthened by the fact that they are supported by counterclaims. In the first example, King argues that we must all live together as brothers. This is his main claim. On the other hand, in the case of Governor George Wallace, he claims that the true brotherhood of America lies in respecting the separateness of others. This statement serves as the counterclaim to King's argument. Therefore, these statements become more effective when used together.
Answer:
Characterization can be defined as the way a writer presents and develops a character which can be direct characterization or indirect characterization. In "The gift of the Magi" by O. Henry, The statement '<em>He looked thin and very serious' is</em> an example of direct characterization.
Explanation:
The irony of "The gift of the magi".
There is<em> situational irony</em> present in the gift of the magi" Situational irony means that there is a gap between expectation and what happens. This irony is shown in when Della and Jim bought each other gift which turned out to be useless. Jim sold his gold watch to buy Della a set of fancy combs and Della sold some of her locks to buy Jim a watch, This is a clear example of situational irony.
The theme of <em>Love </em>is shown in "The gift of Maggi" Della and Jim have deep love for each other as they were willing to sacrifice their possession for each other.
