Answer with Explanation:

The "Chorus" and the "Chorus Leader" in Strophe 1 show different tones and attitudes when it comes to describing the army from Argos, which Polynices commanded as they were about to attack Thebes.

The Chorus uses an "optimistic or positive tone" while the Chorus Leader uses a "pessimistic or negative tone." Just by stating, "O ray of sunlight," at the beginning, the Chorus then gives hope to the people in Thebes. Although the warriors were marching towards Thebes, the beautiful sunlight was more dominant than the white-shields of the warriors.

On the other hand, the Chorus Leader's tone sets the city aback. It used the phrases "piercing screams" and "hordes of warriors in arms." These give tense to the situation. These also reinforce the power of the army, which renders the city helpless with its angry warriors coming in huge number.

Explanation:

This is mostly an opinion piece, so whatever side you choose make sure to provide reasoning (this can be ethos, pathos, or logos). If your not sure what side to choose, do some research first.

<h2 /><h2>Thesis</h2>

Complex sentence(s) answering all parts of the prompt briefly. Max 3 sentences. This should come AFTER background information on your topic. So in this case, provide a few details about crime, facial recognition, and public involvement/response that align with your thesis (answer to all prompt questions). As long as you answer the question in a "introduction" and list reasons in "body paragraphs", you will do great!

<h2>What are ethos, pathos, and logos?</h2>

The three artistic proofs!

LOGOS - appeal to logic and reasoning

Evokes a rational response. Readers get a sense of, "Oh, that makes sense"

A FACT is something that can be proven true
A STATISTIC is numerical fact/data/percentages
CAUSE/EFFECT is the way a writer shows relationships
An EXAMPLE is a scenario or situation

ETHOS - appeal to ethics and morals

Helps reader to see the author as reliable, trustworthy, competent., and credible. The reader might respect the author or his/her views.

Expert Witness
Celebrity Quote (written or spoken)
Quote from a well-known and reliable source
Anything else that may suggest something is right/wrong or moral/immoral

PATHOS - appeal to emotions and psychological response

Evokes an emotional response. Persuasion by emotion.

Emotionally loaded language
Vivid descriptions
Emotional examples
Anecdotes, testimonies, or narratives about emotional experiences or events
Figurative language
Emotional tone (humor, sarcasm, disappointment, excitement, etc.)
