This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

So today, we dumped another 70 million tons of global-warming pollution into the thin shell of atmosphere surrounding our planet, as if it were an open sewer. And tomorrow, we will dump a slightly larger amount, with the cumulative concentrations now trapping more and more heat from the sun.

What type of appeal does Gore use to warn about global warming?

A. He uses his position as vice president to persuade his audience.

B. He uses scientific facts to convince the audience.

C. He uses emotional words to persuade his audience.

D. He uses exaggerations to upset the audience.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. He uses emotional words to persuade his audience.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, Al Gore who was the 45th vice president of the United States, is trying to persuade his audience by using emotional words.

Instead of talking about scientific facts, Gore's strategy is to use phrases like <em>"And tomorrow, we will dump a slightly larger amount, with the cumulative concentrations now trapping more and more heat from the sun." </em>to demonstrate how humans pollute the environment and even seem to intentionally want to destroy it.

This makes humans look like <em>"monsters"</em> and raise awareness in the audience.

This is a characteristic of persuasive speech, where attempts are made to persuade the audience about a particular point of view.

Why does the play state that Anne received her diary upon entering the Secret Annex, instead of on her thirteenth birthday, whic
LenaWriter [7]

Explanation:

I could not find the play that you are talking about in you question but I will try to answer it with some information that could be helpful to you.

Anne Frank did receive her diary on her thirteenth birthday but maybe it was hard for directors to show that in the play, since Anne Frank did write in her diary all of the horror situations that she was experiencing.

It was easier for them to show her diary receiving when she has entered the Secret Annex because the<em><u> bookcase</u></em> was considered as the entrance to the Secret Annex that was the hiding place for her and her family.
