Answer:

D). Direct Quotation.

Explanation:

Direct Quotation is demonstrated as the reporting or copying of the exact words, phrase, or sentence of either the author or his work. Such words are exactly quoted from the work within the quotation marks to acknowledge the original work and enhance the credibility of the work/discourse.

As per the question, the given excerpt exemplifies a 'direct quotation' which is identified by the use of quotation marks preceded by the author's name whose work has been referred to. Here, the exact words of Dwight McDonald have been quoted to captivate the readers' attention towards that particular idea of 'individualistic and antiscientific style'. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Poe's short story "The Fall of the House of Usher" was published in 1839, and Bierce's short story "The Middle Toe to the Right
umka21 [38]

The right answer is letter b: <em>the houses in both passages are described as having an air of rot, gloom and loneliness</em>.  

Poe's character describes Mr. Roderick Usher's house as one he cannot help to consider a "melancholy view" where "there  was an iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart" . Said house caused an "insufferable gloom" in the observer's spirit.


In a similar thread of thought, Bierce's tale about the Manton house describes its looks as sufficient to affirm it is<em> "haunted"</em>. He describes the house as <em>"slowly falling into decay"</em> as <em>"cobwebs weave in the angles of the walls like strips of rotting lace..."</em> all while standing <em>"a little way off the loneliest reach of the Marshall and Harriston road". </em>

IceJOKER [234]
Logic and the use of facts are an effect element for persuasion. Appealing to the audience/reader’s logos is going to get them to listen to reason. Facts and logic cannot be manipulated by emotion, so it makes for a much stronger argument. That is what people will listen to the most.
