<span>Read the excerpt. And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. Which rhetorical device in this excerpt from John F. Kennedy’s Inaugural Address is being used? I would say antithesis is being used by JFK ie by turning the question around of what your country can do for you to what you can do for your country he grabs the interest of the audience by coming up with the opposite meaning.</span>

1. The word in the passage that is used connotatively is: C. Suffered

  • To use a word connotatively means that a word can change its meaning when used in different contexts such as the verb suffer here, that its general meaning is <u>"to feel pain or to be in an unpleasant situation"</u>, but if you say "<em>who on account of his illness was suffered to be out of irons" </em>the verb suffer here means <u>"to allow " or to permit": </u><em><u>"</u></em><em>who on account of his illness was </em><em>allowed</em><em> to be out of irons."</em>

2. Papago song's purpose is : D. To express

  • In the phrase <em>"and the wind seems to be blowing backward" </em>the author of the song maybe wanted to express things were not going how they were supposed to.

3. The primary source from early American and colonial literature is: A. the autobiography of Olaudah Equiano.

  • <em>The Interesting Narrative of the Life Of Olaudah Equiano</em>, an autobiography published in 1789,  dealt with themes such as slavery in West Africa and how the experience, which was also personal, differed from slavery in the Americas. However, this autobiography helped in the creation of the 1807 Slave Trade Act, which ended the transatlantic slave trade for England and its colonies. Therefore, studying his work nowadays continues to be important when learning about African and African-American literature and history.

4. The effect of the repetition in the lines from Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven is:  A. It creates an anxious tone.

  • Repetition in literature is usually used to increase enthusiasm or creating anxious tones and, as the purpose of Poe in these lines is to increase suspense and also, terror, when telling the story, the use of repetition works pretty well here.

In the sentence "I want to sleep when I'm tired," the words "to sleep" are a/an
artcher [175]
<span>In this sentence, the words "to sleep" are an D. infinitive phrase. This is because the words start with an infinitive to sleep, which takes the form of to + verb. It isn't an adjective, but a verb, so it cannot be a predicate adjective. It is a direct object, not an indirect one. It isn't a prepositional phrase, because it doesn't start with a preposition.</span>
