Answer:

B). By describing the losses the Japanese suffered shows how quickly the Americans were able to fight back despite the destruction of ships and aircraft.

Explanation:

The central idea is demonstrated as the dominant idea that is advanced throughout the narrative(as intended by the author) that functions to unify the plot(bring all the elements together in one thread).

As per the question, the central idea(of mirroring the strength of Americans) is advanced throughout the course of the narrative by involving the supporting details like 'describing the loss that were born by Japanese reflects that how swiftly the Americans retaliated despite the damage of their ships and aircraft' . It assists to develop and highlight the central idea of 'displaying the tenacity and courage of Americans and failure of Japan in letting them down'. Thus, option B is the correct answer.

AUTHOR'S STYLE RHETORICAL DEVICES A. DIRECTIONS: Identify four rhetorical devices in this excerpt from a persuasive speech. Expl

Marianna [84]

Answer:

1. Parallelism

2. Anaphora

3. Alliteration

4. Epiphora

1. To get ahead, a person needs to have good goals, study hard and plan well for the future.

2. The professor needs to either publish more books or work with his students.

3. She is having good days, bad days, long days and short days.

4. Hike the Appalachian Trail is exploring the Panama Canal and the Mississippi ford.

Explanation:

I have been able to show the four rhetorical devices used in the given passage.

Parallelism is the use of a particular grammatical structure in a sentence. We see it in the line: "We all should have our say in the political leaders we elect: the young student and the old retiree; the struggling worker and the wealthy businessman."

Anaphora is the rhetorical device that repeats a word or phrase in a sentence at the beginning of successive classes.

It is seen in the line: "It is a privilege, it is a right, it is a duty."

Alliteration is the rhetorical device that repeats the same letter or sound at the beginning of words that adjacent or closely connected.

It is seen in the line: "You must vote! If you love your country, you must vote. If you believe that your country can be better, you must vote."

Epiphora is the rhetorical device that repeats a word or phrase at the end of successive clauses.

It is seen in the line: "You must vote! If you love your country, you must vote. If you believe that your country can be better, you must vote."

Lena avoids... at night because it is dangerous.

alexandr402 [8]

The grammatically correct sentence would be C.
Lena avoids driving at night because it is dangerous.
The rest are grammatically incorrect as follows. :)
Drive, is used more for future tense in general.
To drive, is an infinitive which when defining that we can determine is not needed in the sentence.
Drove, is past tense and our sentence is present tense.
Cutting, is not only present tense, the correct tense, an action 'ing' word but it is also a gerund which completes the sentence accurately.

Hope this helped! If you need anymore help, have any other questions or need further explanation just let me know!! :)
