Which four phrases in this excerpt from Robert Stawell Ball’s Great Astromomers convey a commendable tone toward Ptlemy’s work.
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Greatest figure in ancient astronomy

Gathered up the wisdom

Illumined it with his theories

Astonishing verisimilitude to the actual facts

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • so far as his individuality is concerned
  • greatest figure in ancient astronomy
  • gathered up the wisdom
  • illumined it with his theories
  • astonishing verisimilitude to the actual facts

Our task is to determine which phrases praise Ptolemy for his work. These phrases will contain subjective language - language that reveals the author's feelings, opinions, beliefs, or assumptions about what he's writing about. All phrases, except for the first one, contain this type of language. The first phrase contains neutral, objective language, which is why it isn't one of the correct options.

Words that Robert Stawell Ball uses to commend Ptolemy are <em>greatest, wisdom, illuminated, </em>and <em>astonishing</em>. All of these words have a positive connotation, i.e. evoke positive emotions in us.
