<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.

It is the general responsibility of the people to think of future generations and preserve the guarantee of life. How/why?
andre [41]

Explanation:

Yes, because all the present actions of human beings will directly influence and impact future generations. An example of this responsibility is on the use of scarce environmental resources, such as pollution of the oceans and air, deforestation, the production of waste, etc.

It is essential that the current generation is aware of how the present and future quality of life is directly linked to education, ethics, the awareness of people, governments and industries, so that the world is a positive place for future generations, where it there is war, hunger or pollution, but union, respect and quality of life.

In the "Interlopers" the setting contributes to the theme of the story by _____.
Naya [18.7K]

The correct answer is the second statement. In the "The Interlopers" by Saki (Hector Hugh Munro) the setting contributes to the theme of the story by showing that nature is unconcerned with human desires. In this short story Georg and Ulrich are continuing three years long dispute about the forest. The setting of the story is very important because the forest on the border of their lands doesn’t really has value, but represent their greed and yearning for dominance over one another. The forest on the night of the final dispute is described as a dreary place in which cries for help are only heard by wolves. This shows that nature is unforgiving and indifferent to man’s concerns (dispute over land).
