Christopher Marlowe uses blood as a symbol for Faustus's soul and life throughout The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus. Which
part of this excerpt from the play provides evidence that Faustus's human soul is predisposed to shun evil? FAUSTUS: [Writing] Ay, so I do. But, Mephistophilis, My blood congeals, and I can write no more. MEPHASTOPHILIS: I'll fetch thee fire to dissolve it straight. (Exit) FAUSTUS:What might the staying of my blood portend? Is it unwilling I should write this bill? Why streams it not, that I may write afresh? FAUSTUS GIVES TO THEE HIS SOUL: O, there it stay'd! Why shouldst thou not? is not thy soul thine own? Then write again, FAUSTUS GIVES TO THEE HIS SOUL.
In this excerpt from the play The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus, the line that provides evidence that Faustus's human soul is predisposed to shun evil is the second one:
But, Mephistophilis, My blood congeals,
and I can write no more.
This line, as Marlowe uses blood as a symbol for the character of Faustus's soul, shows the reader his intention to avoid evil, but he feels he can't because it "<em>congeals</em>".
The correct answer is 4) A logical appeal based on facts and reason.
An argument has to be based on facts which are correct - you shouldn't base your argument on incorrect information because then you will look stupid. Also, you should apply reason why forming an argument in order to make it sound sane and plausible for everyone to understand and perhaps agree with you.
