Answer:

Thematic statement: Participating in sports is a great benefit for the body, but this practice should not interfere with other important elements such as education and physical capacity.

Rhetorical strategy with logos: If being an athlete impairs academic performance, or if the practice of exercise is causing some harm to the body, the sport is not beneficial but harmful.

Explanation:

In "The Proper Place for Sports," Roosevelt argues about his son's desire to join the school's football team. In the letter Roosevelt is concerned that the boy's physical condition is sufficient for the sport he wants to practice. However, Roosevelt agrees to let him take the test if the coach says he is not in danger of health. Roosevelt also says that playing sports is very important, but this should not be done to the detriment of the academic performance of the boy, who must maintain good grades and be concerned with studies.

Accordingly, we can say that Roosevelt is in accordance with the thematic statement and rhetorical strategy shown above. He agrees that if sport is damaging the body and academic performance, sport is not being beneficial and, therefore, losing its main function.

Read the excerpt from "Dream Season.”
Vlada [557]

Answer and Explanation:

The answer that makes the most sense is B) Sentence 1 has indirect characterization, while Sentence 2 has direct characterization.

In Sentence 1, we are told that Jackie didn't yell back and didn't avoid their meanness. This is telling us that he was calm and strong indirectly by saying his actions.

In Sentence 2, we are directly told that Jackie was calm and strong, which are his personality traits.
