Answer:

The conflict that Santha and Premila experience when they met the Headmistress was that she tried to change the names of Santha and Premila, which suggests that people were trying to change them and their identity.

Explanation:

'By Any Other Name' is a short story written by Santha Rama Rau. The story is the story of two sisters who were forced to attend Anglo Indian School. The story is set during the times of British Raj in India. The story sheds light on the discrimination faced by Indian students by English people in the school (abd outside as well.)

The conflict that arouse in the story when Santha and Premila met the Headmistress was the she changed their names. Name of a person reflects much about his or her identity and culture, of which they were robbed in the school by their English Headmistress.

<u>The Headmistress changes the name of Santha to Cynthia and Premila to Pamela because their Indian names were difficult to pronounce by them. </u>

Appeal to emotion. He's trying to manipulate people's emotions by saying things like ""deserves the love and thanks" which is very positive. Who wouldn't want to be loved and thanked by others? I think he's trying to say that if you fight, you will be honored.

Appeal to ethics is when the writer tries to convince the reader that he is knowledgeable about the subject like if he said, "As a doctor...." But he doesn't refer to himself in this passage.

Appeal to logic would be using facts, reasoning, evidence, and stuff, but I don't see a lot of facts here.

Appeal to authority would be him saying that because another person said something, it must be true. But he doesn't refer to anyone else here.

Answer:

A: ABCB

Explanation:

"Death" doesn't rhyme with anything, but is the first one so = A.

"Me" would = B and it rhymes with "immortality" so "immortality" would also be B.

"Ourselves" = C because it doesn't rhyme with anything.
