Answer:

C.) to demonstrate how cowardly the British army can be

Explanation:

The "American Crisis" which is a series of articles were written by Thomas Paine between 1776 to 1783. One of the purposes of the article is to inspire the Americans to fight the British in their quest for the Revolution War.

He, however, referred to Joan of Arc, by stating that "...Britain has trembled like an ague at the report of a French fleet of flat-bottomed boats; and... after ravaging the kingdom of France, was driven back like men petrified with fear; and this brave exploit was performed by a few broken forces collected and headed by a woman, Joan of Arc."

Hence, it can be concluded that Paine most likely refers to Joan of Arc "to demonstrate how cowardly the British army can be."

Name one of the Bad Writing/Good Writing pairs listed in your textbook and explain how that pair affects style
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Wordiness

Explanation:

In writing style, it is really important to consider the most appropriate words choice in order to communicate the right message to the reader. This is a matter that can result subjective, because it depends, in great sense, of the writers' opinions.

Wordiness is one of the important points to be considered when writing, since it refers to the excessive use of words to say something that could be said in a simpler way. Qualifiers and redundant pais are some examples that can be presented in this category. For example:

Bad writing:

It is completely necessary that the report be presented this afternoon considering the fact that the last deadline for submission is met today.

Good writing:

The report needs to be presented this afternoon, because today is the deadline.

In this case, the same message has been transmitted to the reader in a clear way using less words.
