Hello there!
The question states which quote represents her independence let's analyze each quote.
A)“Habitually obedient to John, I came up to his chair: he spent some three minutes in thrusting out his tongue at me as far as he could without damaging the roots…” This quote is incorrect because it says she is obedient to John.
B)“You ought to be aware, Miss, that you are under obligations to Mrs. Reed: she keeps you: if she were to turn you off, you would have to go to the poorhouse.” This quote is incorrect because it says that she is under obligations of Mrs. Reed.
C) “What do I want? A new place, in a new house, amongst new faces, under new circumstances…” This is correct because she is talking about what she wants.
D)I had had no communication by letter or message with the outer world: school-rules, school-duties, school-habits and notions, and voices, and faces, and phrases, and costumes, and preferences, and antipathies—such was what I knew of existence. This is incorrect because it says she has no communication with the outside world therefore not independent.
In conclusion the answer is C! Good luck!
Ethos appeal means that it is appealing to the credibility of the speaker. Anytime that Henry mentions why he is competent enough to speak about what he's speaking about, that's an appeal to ethos. It would be like a doctor mentioning what schools he went to and what degrees he has, before he delivers a speech about some illness or anything similar. You trust him because of his credibility.
Answer and Explanation:
When choosing a subject to research and write about, we must be careful not to come up and stick to a topic that is too broad. If a topic is too broad, it allows for many subtopics to be derived from it, which means the research and the essay/speech will be all over the place. A narrower topic, on the other hand, will speak on a specific subject completely, without jumping from it to another. With that in mind, we can safely classify the following subjects in either "too broad" or "sufficiently narrowed" for a 500 to 800 word essay.
1. The Hawaiian Islands - Too broad. What about them? Their size? Their culture? Their people? Tourism?
2. The process of voting by caucus in primary elections - Sufficiently narrowed.
3. Lifestyle of women in rural Greece - Sufficiently narrowed.
4. Vacations in South America - Too broad. South America has several countries. Will we speak of each of them? Plus, what about the vacations? Their price? The best time to go? How long one should stay?
5. The health benefits of cottage cheese - Sufficiently narrowed.
6. Breakfast foods - Too broad. What about them? Which ones are more delicious? Which ones are the healthiest?
