<span>The central idea of this excerpt is that Revere traveled through several towns to spread the word that the British were on their way. It takes us through his actions and the ensuing events as if we are reading it in real time. The structure supports these concepts due to its repetition of the time. It begins the first stanza with "It was twelve by the village clock," then begins the second stanza with "It was one by the village clock," etc. This builds suspense for his ride, and gives us an overview of how long this ride actually took. </span>
Answer:
B) to stand stiffly
Explanation:
The best meaning for the word "bristle" as used in the passage is TO STAND STIFFLY because from the narration given, not long after the dog had seen him, he stood stiffly and began to growl.
The word "bristle" as a noun means a short hair on the skin of an animal, however the meaning of the word as a noun is to "stand stiffly" which was what the dog did because it was an action, not a noun.
This persuasive technique is called appeal to authority.
Appeal to authority is a persuasive technique where the speaker relies on the credibility of another person or event to suport their own argument. It is often considered a fallacy because the speaker depends on the "authority"instead of presenting their own evidence.
Example:
"A commercial claims that <u>3 out of 4 dentists</u> would choose this particular brand of toothpaste for their own families to use."
In this statement, the dentists are the authority the argument depends on.
