Answer:

The author is persuading the public through his character.

Explanation:

Ethos refers to the characteristics of the speaker that can influence the persuasion process, such as his authority, honesty and credibility in relation to the topic under consideration. The speaker's ability to dialogue and his presentation are also included in the skills that may lead to persuasion.

The ethos is the public's perception of its authority and good morals. Translating to our world: It's not enough to be good, you need to look good.

In “The Lottery” how does the fact that names are called and people select their piece of paper work to create suspense?
igomit [66]
The way the lottery is done in "The Lottery" builds suspense by sparking the reader's interest as to what the lottery is. Once the reader comes to understand that being chosen for the lottery is a bad thing (even though it is not clear exactly what it is until the end), it is suspenseful that names are drawn and called out, because it is a slow way to reveal who is <em>not</em> the loser of the lottery, building the anticipation of the reader, and the fear/nerves of the characters. This is a successful way to form suspense for those both in and out of the story, because both the reader and characters know that something bad is going to happen, but it is a mystery as to whom it will happen.

This is for grade 2 student.. Please answer??
NARA [144]
Okay. Say you can bake a cake. Say you can ride a bike. You can make a paper airplane. A cootie-catcher. Anything, you can make anything. What you would have to do it tell how you make it, and from the words below, choose a word/adjective that describes how you make it, whether it be how it looks, sounds, tastes, or feels.

Say I can bake muffins : first I would preheat the oven, beat the butter and sugar, mix it all together, lather it into muffins cups, and so on. I would put it in the oven, and wait for it. Once I would eat it, or anything, I would say that the muffins are fresh out of the oven. They are smooth to my touch. They taste sweet in my mouth. And say I overheated this muffin to burned crisps. They would taste and feel hard.
