To increase the credibility of the essay

Further Explanation:

A Rhetorical device which is also known by the name of ‘Stylistic device’ is a technique which an author or a speaker uses to communicate to the listener or the reader a meaning with the goal to persuade them towards considering a topic from one given perspective and the sentences used under a Rhetorical device are designed in such a way that the words under it encourage or sometimes provoke an emotional display of the given perspective or an action. These devices can be used to ‘evoke’ an ‘emotional response’ to the audience but it is not the sole or primary purpose of rhetorical devices.

Many times, Rhetorical devices are used by writers while writing essays or novels and using ‘rhetorical devices’ in essays helps to increase the credibility of an essay.

The witness's voice was steady and firm as she averred, "That is the man I saw."

Agata [3.3K]

If we imagine ourselves in the scene in which the witness speaks with a firm and confident voice saying "that is the man I saw", the most probable thing is that it convinces us because she is very sure of herself, the witness does not doubt it for a moment, she/he is stating it.

The word averred can be replaced by stated since they have the same meaning. Other synonims can be claim, declare or affirm.

Does Woolf agree with the bishop

antiseptic1488 [7]

The wolf does not agree with the bishop upon the comment that he made about the women.

Explanation:

In the chapter "A room of one's own" which was written by Virginia Woolf, the bishop made a very strong statement about the women. He said that it was impossible for the women of the past, present or the future women to come, to have genius of Shakespeare. He was very adamant about it and wrote it in his papers.

Responding to this approach of the bishop, Woolf said in a sarcastic way that "the borders of ignorance shrank back" which means that Woolf did not agree to what Bishop said at all.

Identify the sentence that uses a modifier correctly.

Ann [662]

Answer: C) When Alex came home, his parents were waiting up for him.

Explanation: a misplaced modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is improperly separated from the word it modifies or describes. Because of the separation, sentences with this error often sound awkward, ridiculous, or confusing. In the sentence A, it isn't clear who was driving (the bears or the speaker), in sentence B, it isn't clear who was snoring (the alarm or the speaker), in sentence D it is unclear what was eight feet long (the surfboard or the store), so the sentence that uses a modifier correctly, is the corresponding to option C.
