C. It calls attention to the urgency of the message.

Answer:

C. It calls attention to the urgency of the message.

Explanation:

One example of the loaded language in this excerpt is "suddenly and deliberately". The seriousness of the language and the message calls attention to the urgency of the message. The loaded language does nothing to establish the speaker's credibility. While there is a confident and reassuring tone at some points during the speech, the loaded language in this excerpt does not add to that tone. There is also no contrast between past and future.

In this passage from Hamlet, act IV, scene VII, King Claudius tells Laertes why he is not taking action against Polonius’s murde
Kazeer [188]
These lines are correct:

<span>The other motive,
Why to a public count I might not go,
Is the great love the general gender bear him;
Who, dipping all his faults in their affection,
Work, like the spring that turneth wood to stone,
so that my arrows,
Too slightly timber'd for so loud a wind,
Would have reverted to my bow again,
But not where I have aim'd them

Here, Claudius is clearly saying that he cannot accuse Hamlet of anything because the people in Denmark love their prince, so even if he did try to accuse him, nobody would believe him anyway. This is why he doesn't want to accuse Hamlet of Polonious's murder like that, but rather reveal the secret in other ways.

STALIN [3.7K]

I was convicted of a crime and I was taken into a trial with a judge, jury and I was trying to justify the actions I partook in. I claimed that two witnesses at the event had committed perjury and I proposed a fair alibi. My road to justice had been blocked by the judicial decision to mark me as guilty. Their jurisdiction offended me, as they clearly had some racial bias that I was a victim to, I strongly believe that my trial was not just.
