Answer:

<h2>The answer is "It is used as an adjective to describe the noun Roger."</h2>

Explanation:

A <u>participle</u> is a word that is <em>partly a verb and partially an adjective</em>. A participle is simply a verb partaking the elements of a verb and an adjective.

In the example,

Lying to the best of his ability, the word 'lying' qualifies the noun, 'Roger' as an adjective does. It originates from the verb, 'lie.'

Analyze how the author uses the rhetorical devices of parallelism and diction to
beks73 [17]

The author has used rhetorical devices like parallelism to emphasize the miserable and hopeless condition of the migrants who were despised and hated but had no option but to swarm the town to fight hunger and survive.

<u>Explanation :</u>

The chapter talks about the agrarians who were ruined by industrialization. Industries and technology pushed them on the roads. They moved in search of food and to give their families a meal to survive.  

Parallelism has been employed at places to underline the misery, the dejection and distress.

For instance, in one of the paragraphs, just to stress on the simplicity of the agrarian folks before they were brought near to doom: ‘a simple agrarian folk who had not changed …….. who had not farmed. They had not grown up….’  

This repetition of phrases and clauses is parallelism.  The chapter is replete with such examples.  It lends it unity and realism and appeals to emotions.

DIRECTIONS: Read each item below. Then, on the line beneath it, write if the argument is an appeal to Logic, Authority, or Emoti
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The case for diversity cites a study by a Nobel prize-winning scientist that shows when diversity is introduced in a group, the entire group benefits, not just the minority individuals.

Appeal to authority.

Do you really want to spend your time with a bunch of bigots and extremists who are afraid of people who don't look like them?

Appeal to emotion

Diversity makes sense when you think about it. How do people learn? Not by encountering the same old thing over and over again, but by encountering new things. And diversity introduces new things, and new people, into your environment.

Appeal to logic.

An appeal to authority which is also known as Argumentum ad Verecundiam that uses the opinion of a figure of authority to back up a claim or support an argument.

An appeal to emotion is used to stir up the emotions of a person so as to convince them about a proposition.

An appeal to logic is used by showing reasons why a person should do something, what would happen when the person fails to do it and why an option is the best possible solution.
