If you are rich and worth your salt, you will teach your [children] that [if] they have leisure it is not to be spent in idlenes

s; for wisely used leisure merely means that those who possess it, being free from the necessity of working for their livelihood, are all the more bound to carry on some kind of nonremunerative [unpaid] work in science, in letters, in art, in exploration, in historical research--work of the type we most need in this country, out of which reflects most honor upon the nation.
--Theodore Roosevelt, 1899

Answer:

C). Exemplification.

Explanation:

'Exemplification' is demonstrated as the process of presenting an idea through examples or illustrations in order to make it more clear, understandable, and persuasive.

The given excerpt from Roosevelt's 1899 speech 'Strenuous life' uses the 'exemplification' method to represent his ideas more impactfully and convincingly to the audience. The use of various examples like 'worth your salt', 'wisely used leisure', etc. helps in clarifying his central idea behind this speech i.e. to show the benefits of a strenuous life not only on an individual but on the entire nation as it is the one 'we most need in this country, out of which reflects most honor upon the nation'. Therefore, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Explain the extent to which industrialization brought change from 1750 to 1900​
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Industrialization has knit the world together -not just in having wrought profound technological change, but also in the consequences, both economic and social, of that change. Industrialization allowed for the mechanization of Euro-American societies and the mass production of commodities and finished goods. At the same time, industrialization facilitated the destruction of local environments all over the world with pollution and resource depletion. Industrialization also provided the means by which Europeans, Americans, and the Japanese dominated cultures and societies around the globe through both formal and informal imperialism. As a result, the "progress" of the nineteenth century should be viewed globally, with truly global consequences that still challenge the planet and its peoples.
