Answer:

A. President Carter appeals to his audience’s emotions, and by doing so, he informs them that he is there to listen and to lead them into a new age of democracy.

B. President Carter addresses the American nation with a great sense of urgency, and by doing so, he commands and demands the audience’s attention.

Explanation:

A- President Carter says he has been listening to the people  and this has reminded him that  democracy has to get stronger. The U.S underwent many problems: three assassinations in 1960s and the defeat at the Vietnam War. An oil crisis is underway at the moment of this speech. "....to talk to you right now about a fundamental threat to American democracy." This quotation reflects the President's intention to inform his nation about  the need to take a new path towards democracy.

B- President Carter's sense of urgency is given by the recurrent usage of: " I want to speak to you ..." ; and "I want to talk to you right .." These also show that he is asking for the audience's attention.

In Romeo and Juliet, how are Romeo and Juliet different?
m_a_m_a [10]
I believe the answer is A. I went over details about this play 2 years ago and I remember that in the movie and script, Juliet had expressed herself outloud on her balcony not knowing that Romeo had been listening and was rather hesitant with him after learning that he was there watching her because now he knew about her feelings but she did not yet know about his or whether or not he meant all of his "sweet-talking" words. In fact he had to reassure his love for her several times after.
