History

Karolina [17]3 years ago
6 0

The speaker gained the confidence of his listeners by rousing patriotic fervor through detailing the horrible acts committed by the enemy.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The practice of funeral oration dates back to the 5th century CE. The Peloponnesian War that was fought between Athens and Lecedomanians resulted in a great loss of lives.

In order to recognize the sacrifice of the soldiers who died in the war, a respected politician named Pericles delivered a speech in the annual common funeral of the soldiers after the completion of one year of the war.

This speech intended to cease the citizens from getting demotivated from the loss caused by the war and to motivate them to keep the war going for the sake of the freedom of Athens.

anyanavicka [17]

<em>C. Feared the spread of communism.</em>

Explanation:

Harry Truman got the United States involved in the Korean War because he thought that if nothing were to be done, communism would spread.

In Truman's declaration of war speech, he mentioned communism. This made it quite evident that he believed without an involvement of the United States, communism would probably spread quite rapidly. The Korean War hurt Korea's economy very badly and killed many of people, but finally a peace treaty was put out. This treaty also designated a wall to help prevent future wars.

Without the thinking of Harry Truman, things may have gotten out of hand with the spread of communism.

Paul [167]

Answer: Alliteration

Alliteration refers to the conspicuous repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of successive or nearby words in a sentence. It can sometimes be called an initial rhyme.

In this case, the repetition of the sound "s" in words that are close to each other (ship, safe, sound) are an example of alliteration.

What is ironic about the statement that nothing was illegal since?
Finger [1]
The statement "Nothing was illegal since" is ironic because in the past, there were no laws to serve as guidelines of what is "legal" and "illegal". Thus, one cannot say that nothing was illegal since. Also, there were no rules to follow and no one designated to judge a person based on his actions.
