Answer:

C To foreshadow future events.

Explanation:

In medias res is a literary device in which the story begins in the middle of the plot (sequence of events) and not at the beginning of it as it occurs normally, this implies writers that use in media res do not follow the chronological order of the events but begin in the middle of them and just after this present the beginning of the story. Writer use this literary device to present specific events to the reader that are connected to previous events and probably solved or continue in future events, thus, in the case of medias res use future events can be predicted or foreshadow as the reader will have to use the information mainly provided in flashbacks to guess how the story gets into the point presented at the beginning which is the middle of the story.

Answer:

Explanation:

Medias res's literal translation is <em>the middle of the action</em>, more or less.

<em>A and C do not refer to the action</em>, so they are not right.

Out of D and C, although very similar, D is correct, as the wording shows that the beginning of the story is in the middle.

Jefferson begins the introduction to the Declaration of Independence by stating his major premise and giving examples, and then

ExtremeBDS [4]

Jefferson begins the introduction to the <em>Declaration of Independence</em> by stating his major premise and giving examples, and then explains the relationship between the colonies and Britain.

<h3>Further Explanation</h3>

The <em>Declaration of Independence</em> begins by stating that it is necessary to state the reasons that caused the colonies to separate themselves from Britain. The next paragraph goes on to state all of the truths that people believe should be afforded to them under the laws of humanity, along with what people should be allowed to do if these rights are violated. Then it goes on to show how Britain violated these rights with the American colonies.

Wrong Answers

B. While the unalienable rights of all people are mentioned in the introduction, they are not fully explained in his introduction. He just lists them as "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". We learn more about these rights as we see how Britain has violated them later on in the document.

C. It is clear from the <em>Declaration of Independence</em> that Jefferson believed that governments should always represent their people. It is not however explained explicitly. It does show how governments must do right by their people in respect to the basic laws of humanity, unalienable rights.

D. The <em>Declaration of Independence</em> is not a declaration of war. While it does address the fact that the colonies will forcibly oppose British rule and any efforts Britain makes to keep control of the colonies, the <em>Declaration of Independence</em> does not outright state that it is choosing to wage war against Britain.
