The author's purpose is to persuade the reader that child labor is wrong. Which passage best supports this purpose?

English

What the question is asking, I believe, is what will best communicate the idea and persuade people the most.

The answer, I believe is the picture of the sweaty, dirty, exahusted children in coal mines.

The first choice doesn't work, obviously, because there is nothing mentioned about child labor.

The second choice works word wise, but it has no visual. You are also hearing it through someone else's words, as if third person.

The fifth choice would be correct, BUT the fourth choice is better. With the fifth, you see children working. That's sad. But, with the fourth, you not only see the children working, but tired, exahusted, and dirty. That truly communicates how horrible child labor is.

Hope I helped.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Character

Explanation:

Authors will describe characters explicitly either by observation of another character or via a narrator. The purpose of this is to allow the reader to get to know the character intimately in order to use any behaviour that they display later as understandable based on how they were described when they were introduced.

Building the characters also allows the writer to engage the reader's emotions by giving the character likable, unlikable or relatable traits. These are often full of descriptive words and very intimate details about the Character that sometimes only they themselves will know.

Which lines from the text best support this theme? "The wind that carried west from Ilium brought me to Ismarus, on the far shor
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

"I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships, tied them down under their rowing benches, and called the rest: All hands aboard; come, clear the beach and no one taste the Lotus, or you lose your hope of home."

Explanation:

Homer's "The Odyssey" is an epic narrative about the journey of Odysseus and his men after the Battle of Troy, returning to their home in Ithaca. But the journey would take decades before they could set foot on the island, encountering mortals and gods along the way, who will pose as obstructions to their journey.

One characteristic of a leader is that a good leader takes responsibility for those in their charge. This theme is also found in this epic in the character of Odysseus when he marched the men he had sent to survey the land of the Lotus-eaters. When they failed to return safely back to the ship, courtesy of the Lotus that they were offered, Odysseus decided to deal with it on his own. So, he brought the men back and took them to the ship, ensuring that they are safely tied to the deck, and sailed out of that place before more of his men succumb to the lotus.

Thus, the correct answer that best supports the theme of such leadership quality is <em>"I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships, tied them down under their rowing benches, and called the rest: All hands aboard; come, clear the beach and no one taste the Lotus, or you lose your hope of home."</em>

can some one explain to me this aphorism "the reward of virtue is virtue;the I only way to have a friend is to be one .
swat32

Breaking it up:  "the reward of virtue is virtue;the I only way to have a friend is to be one .

"the reward of virtue is virtue". Meaning: when giving hope and kindness, hope and kindness shall be received.

"the I only way to have a friend is to be one ". Meaning: treat a friend as you would want a friend to treat you.
