<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is 'participial phrase'.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the following sentence:

'The old man sat at the window,<em> remembering the days when he would have gone outdoors</em>'.

Here, the italicized words are an example of participial phrase.

A phrase which looks like a verb but actually functions as an adjective while modifying a noun in the same sentence is called a participial phrase.

So in this sentence, 'remembering' is the present participle and 'remembering the days' is the participial phrase. The participial phrase modifies 'he'.

Overall, how does Martin Luther King's use of rhetorical devices affect his message? Does it make his speech more powerful? Why
Aliun [14]

The use of rhetorical devices by the African-American Civil Rights leader was very effective and this is shown in his infamous speech, <em>I Have A Dream</em> as he makes use of repetitions and asks some pertinent questions to convince his audience.

His speech was both moving and very effective and this solidified him as a powerful orator.

<h3>What is Rhetorical Appeal?</h3>

This refers to the use of words to convince a person and also the literary devices that is used to convey this.

Hence, we can see that the use of repetition by Martin Luther King Jr was very effective as he repeats the words "I have a dream" as he talks about a free, equal, and just society where people are not judged by the color of their skin, but the content of their characters.
