The first excerpt is satire because satire is the use of humor, irony, or exaggeration. 

The second excerpt is repetition. The phrase, "Now is the time..." is being repeated.

The third excerpt is rhetorical questions. Throughout the excerpt, there are questions being asked which the readers aren't supposed to be answered. Instead, the questions are there to make a point.

Can you tell me what Is Verbosity?
m_a_m_a [10]
You have asked quite an ordinary question, specifically related to the definition as well
as perhaps the usage of a certain 9-letter word in the English language, being the
official language of the United States of America, the United Kingdom, and several
other of the Earth's sovereign nations, and in addition, the lingua franca de facto
across most of the length and breadth of the totality of our entire planet.  In response
to your question, a working definition of the word concerning which you have inquired
may easily be formulated by any reasonably well read or well educated English
speaker, provided that he is an individual who happens to frequent the website known
as <Brainly.com> and chances to encounter your question before such time as two
responses have already been posted by others.  In conclusion, we can summarize
briefly the content of any correct response to the question, as follows: The term
'verbosity' ... a noun comprised of four syllables ... is the practice in speech or writing
of using an excess of words.  Put in other words, it is the the use of a great and
usually an excessive number of words, or the habit of being wordy.

This week you read about the women's suffrage movement and the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), two major efforts to establish equa
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Please read the explanation/ discussion below:

Explanation:

The woman suffrage movement began in 1848, when a women’s rights convention was held in Seneca Falls, New York. For the next 50 years, woman suffrage supporters worked to educate the public about the validity of woman suffrage. And in 1920, due to the collaborated efforts of National Women’s Party (NWP) and National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA), the 19th Amendment was ratified. It was the single largest extension of democratic voting rights in our nation’s history, and it was achieved peacefully, through democratic processes.

Susan B. Anthony, an American social reformer and human rights activist who played a pivotal role in the women's suffrage movement said, “We ask justice, we ask equality, we ask all the civil and political rights that belong to citizens of the United States, be guaranteed to us and our daughters forever.” Women, across the globe has fought for the fundamental rights that include the right to live free from slavery, violence, and discrimination; to be educated; to vote; to own property and to earn a fair and equal wage. Unfortunately, what is termed as Women Right is basically nothing more than what every individual human being is entitles for.  

The same was proposed in the Equal Rights Amendment that stated, “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged be the United States or by any State on account of sex”.

Why does the author's description of what Edison observed during his visit to the laboratory—"the 20-kilowatt Langmuir amplifyin
ad-work [718]

I believe the correct answer is: Using technical language helps the author stress the complexity of the scientific advances and technological achievements that Edison observed.

 

In this excerpt from “"Edison Marvels at the Magic of Electricity" from the New York Tribune (October 19, 1922), author intentionally incorporate such highly technical language to stress the complexity of the scientific advances and technological achievements that Edison observed.
