Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The given excerpt is taken from 'Declaration of Independence.'

The rhetoric device used in the given excerpt is ethos.

Ethos is a rhetoric device which appeals to ethics or credibility of the speaker. To make his appeal of credibility, the speaker uses <u>'ad hominem argument'</u>, which means that he would make an argument against the opposition man or person, instead to making his/her own point of view. The speaker, using this type of argument, reproaches the character and personality of the opponent.

<u>In the given excerpt, the speaker has used rhetoric device of ethos. The speaker is using 'ad hominem argument' to make himself appeal credible to his audience. He is making an argument by critizing the opponent, that is Britain King.</u>

Thus option C is correct.

Which one of the following sentences contains an incorrect usage of the singular possessive?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A singular possessive noun is created by adding apostrophe (') to the noun.  This is done so in order to show the possession of the noun.

But to use apostrophe to create singular noun possession there are certain grammatical rules.

If a singular noun is ending with 's' then apostrophe can be added after with the word without adding 's' or with adding 's'. Both ways are correct.

In option A, there is no possession shown. And the correct usage of singular possession for option A would be "Mary was dominant among Jesus' disciples.

So, the correct answer is Option A.
