If, on the other hand, it turns into a mere crusade of appetite against appetite, of a contest between the brutal greed of the "

have nots" and the brutal greed of the "haves," then it has no significance for good, but only for evil. If it seeks to establish a line of cleavage, not along the line which divides good men from bad, but along that other line, running at right angles thereto, which divides those who are well off from those who are less well off, then it will be fraught with immeasurable harm to the body politic.

A) It emphasizes how cruel greed can be.
B) It emphasizes how benign greed can be.
Eliminate
C) It emphasizes how temperate greed can be.

What’s the most effective change the writer could make to improve the coherence of this paper?
Fittoniya [83]

<span>Predictable Paragraph Organization: </span>To maintain optimal coherency, organize paragraphs in the way that readers are accustomed. For example, unless there is a compelling reason to do otherwise, place the topic sentence in the first position of the paragraph. The topic sentence appears in the first position of the paragraph 80% of the time in expository writing. Because of this high percentage, readers expect the main idea of the paragraph to be in this position. Similarly, the thesis statement appears 50% of the time as the last sentence in an essay introduction, so follow this practice as well.

Additionally, the Ancient Greeks developed the rhetorical rules for our writing, and these rules dictate that the most important idea in any communication needs to be stated first. Organize paragraphs with customary and traditional structures to be considerate to your reader.

Which is true about internal rhyme
Mama L [17]
We can't really help you because you didn't give us any of your options to choose from.
However, I can try and explain to you what internal rhyme is, so hopefully you will be able to do this on your own. 
An internal rhyme is also known as middle rhyme, and it refers to a type of rhyme which occurs within the same line. You know that the regular rhyme refers to multiple lines rhyming, but when it comes to internal rhyme, words within one single line rhyme. 
Here is an example:
My unusual <u>style</u><span><u> </u>will </span><span>confuse you a <u>while.</u></span>
