Richard Nixon's "Checkers" speech was a response to accusations that he misused campaign funds for non-political expenses. Which

paragraph in this excerpt from the speech uses the red herring fallacy? But I have never done that for this reason: I have found that there are so many deserving stenographers and secretaries in Washington that needed the work that I just didn't feel it was right to put my wife on the pay roll. My wife's sitting over here. She's a wonderful stenographer. She used to teach stenography and she used to teach shorthand in high school. That was when I met her. And I can tell you folks that she's worked many hours at night and many hours on Saturdays and Sundays in my office, and she's done a fine job, and I am proud to say tonight that in the six years I've been in the House and the Senate of the United States, Pat Nixon has never been on the Government pay roll. What are other ways that these finances can be taken care of? Some who are lawyers, and I happen to be a lawyer, continue to practice law, but I haven't been able to do that. I'm so far away from California that I've been so busy with my senatorial work that I have not engaged in any legal practice. And, also, as far as law practice is concerned, it seemed to me that the relationship between an attorney and the client was so personal that you couldn't possibly represent a man as an attorney and then have an unbiased view when he presented his case to you in the event that he had one before Government. And so I felt that the best way to handle these necessary political expenses of getting my message to the American people and the speeches I made -- the speeches that I had printed for the most part concerned this one message of exposing this Administration, the Communism in it, the corruption in it -- the only way that I could do that was to accept the aid which people in my home State of California, who contributed to my campaign and who continued to make these contributions after I was elected, were glad to make.

What's the answer to the picture taken
aleksandrvk [35]

The correct answer is D. Get as closer to the subject as possible.

Explanation

The text is about the composition of a photograph and the methods to make it suitable depending on the requirements and taste of the person taking the photos. According to the author, the objects or subject to be captured in the photo must also be taken into account, and from this, the distance between the photographer and the object is essential "farther you are, the more of the surroundings will be included in your photo". He later talks about the importance of the orientation and angle of the photo to improve the composition of the photo. According to the above, if a photographer only wants to capture the subject in a photo, he must take the photo from a very close distance. So the answer is D. Get as closer to the subject as possible.

seraphim [82]

On April 4, 1968, Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy spoke to an audience that had gathered as part of a political event. However, earlier that day, Martin Luther King Jr. had been assassinated. Kennedy then made a speech addressing the tragic news.

  • The central idea of this speech is that of unity among the people of the nation. Kennedy argues that, as Martin Luther King was most likely killed by a white person, black people might be inclined to feel angry and betrayed, and to hate whites. He asks them not to feel that way, as the best path to follow from now on is that of unity.
  • I think it is an effective eulogy because it addresses the main concerns that were going to arise after the assassination, such as the future of the civil rights movements and the people's reactions to the news. It does not spend much time on King's personal life, but celebrates his public actions.
  • It honoured Dr. King because it highlighted the main objectives of King's campaigns. Kennedy reminded attendants that the fight for civil rights was not one of hate, but of equality, peace and collaboration. He also pointed to the extreme sadness and despair that the country was feeling, but gave them a way forward.
