Answer:

The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that I suppose the struggle to live has been so great you could not think much about what you fed the mind, but I came away feeling that right there, in one of the biggest and richest states in the country, we had a big area that needed books and needed libraries to help these schools in the education of the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds.

Explanation:

According to Aristotle, there are three main rhetorical devices used when trying to convince an audience of a certain point of view. They are called ethos, logos, and pathos. Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and logos is an appeal to logic.

Pathos is the emotional appeal. The speaker tries to provoke feelings - pity, sorrow, empathy etc. - so that the audience will understand and agree to the speaker's opinion. After reading the excerpt of Eleanor Roosevelt's speech, we can find the section in which she makes an emotional appeal through her choice of words. When she describes the situation in which the kids live, how poor and pathetic they are, how great the struggle is to survive, she is trying to inspire pity and concern in her audience. Roosevelt then proceeds to explaining that libraries are necessary in those areas, since education could help change that terrible situation. She successfully connects the audience's emotions to the solution.

In a few paragraphs, what was William Shakespeare's education?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:  <em>Shakespeare probably began his education at the age of six or seven at the Stratford grammar school. Although we have no record of Shakespeare attending the school. It seems most likely he would've attended the Stratford Grammar School. Like most all of the great poets and dramatists of the time, Shakespeare learned his basic reading and writing skills from an ABC, or horn-book. Shakespeare's daily activities after he left school and before he re-emerged as a professional actor in the late 1580s are impossible to trace. </em>

Explanation: I hope this helps. :)

I believe the word horror would insert the feeling of fear except disgust in this sentence.

 

The word “abomination” is defined as the thing that causes loathing, disgust or the feeling of hatred. If the word abomination would be replaced with the word horror in this sentence it would insert the feeling of fear as the word horror represents the intense feeling of fear, shock, or disgust.

When a son was born to Confucius, the king of Lu sent over a carp as present. Confucius named his son Carp.
Natalka [10]
It is ironic that Confucius's son died an early death. We can infer that the death of Confucius' son, Carp is ironic, he suffered an early death when the symbolism of the carp fish is longevity, because carps can get very old, it also represents the dragons due to big scales on the body of a carp. According to the meaning of the carp Confucius' son, Carp, should have a long live which did not happen.
