Why certain topics are given prominence over others

English
1 answer:
Natalka [10]3 years ago
8 0
This is because of what we called "new criteria" where people decide which topic they decide to talk about. This maybe based on their experience, intuition, interest and culture.
How the issues are interpreted and the emphasis given to them would also matter. Study shows that bad news is more newsworthy than good news.

Answer:

the same purpose

an appeal to emotion

an appeal to reason

Explanation:

Both of the passages focus on the same purpose. It tries to convince the readers by<em> appealing to emotion</em> and<em> appealing to reason. </em>

Passage 1 appeals to emotion by using words and phrases such as <em>"dread"</em> and <em>"methods of barbarism." </em>These allow the readers to feel what the writer is claiming. Passage 2 appeals to emotion by using the words <em>"awake to life and freedom"</em> and<em> "long suppressed.</em>" It tries to convince the readers that India needed the freedom because it has been suppressed for a long time.

Besides appealing to emotion, both passages also<u> appeal to reason.</u> Passage 1 mentioned about the<em> "late war"</em> which happened in history. This is considered an evidence to his argument. Passage 2 mentioned about the<em> "dawn of history of India"</em> which backs his argument.

So, this explains the answers.
