The correct answer is D. The author gives examples of wild horses being trained and then adopted by the U.S. Marine Corps.    

Explanation:

In the text presented the author states the way the U.S. Marine Corps, which is part of the Armed Forces in the U.S. decided to adopt a wild horse in 1988 and as a result of the positive performance of this horse continued adopting many other wild horses. For supporting the main idea of the text, which is that wild horses can be adopted and trained the author mainly explains to the audience the way in which the first wild horse was adopted and the performance of it as part of the Mounted Color Guard by providing details about how quickly the horse became an important part of the parades and unexpectedly was not afraid in situations with loud noises.

This shows the author aims at showing to the audience it is possible to adopt horses and integrate them to the Marine Corps by presenting the story of one of the horses or by giving an example of wild horses being trained and then adopted by the U.S. Marine Corps, as this is a fact and shows it is possible wild horses can be part of the Armed Forces.

Martin Luther King’s tone in his “I Have a Dream” speech can be described as
Phantasy [73]

Tone is the author's attitude toward the speech.  Since we know that Dr. King was the author and presenter of the speech, this was one of inspiration, seriousness, hope, and encouraging.  This is not to be confused with mood.  Mood is your feelings from the text.  So, while the tone may be one of hope, to say it was 'hopeful' would be a mood (if that is indeed what you are feeling when hearing it.)

In about five to six sentences, describe how an author can use ethos to persuade their reader. help please !!
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

1.) The main thing a speaker needs to do is convince the audience that they know what they’re talking about. After all, how are you going to sell someone a product you know nothing about? This includes knowing both sides of an argument and presenting each of them accurately. This helps assure the audience that you’ve at least done your research on the subject.

2.) Also, in order to use this strategy effectively, it’s important for a speaker to understand the audience to which they’ll be speaking. By having this background knowledge the speaker can research their subject matter, and then tailor their message in a way that resonates with that specific audience.

3.) In addition, citing credible sources is also a must. For example, if you were trying to persuade your audience to use a certain pharmaceutical product, and you yourself were not a doctor or pharmacist, you might reference or quote known physicians. An audience can forgive the fact that you’re not a certified expert on the subject that you’re presenting, but they may not forgive you for not making an effort to provide an expert’s opinion.
