Which sentence in this excerpt from Mohandas Gandhi’s “Banaras Hindu University Speech” is an example of the use of ethos as a p

ersuasive device?
I was present at the sessions of the great Congress in the month of December. There was a much vaster audience, and will you believe me when I tell you that the only speeches that touched the huge audience in Bombay were the speeches that were delivered in Hindustani? In Bombay, mind you, not in Banaras where everybody speaks Hindi. But between the vernaculars of the Bombay Presidency on the one hand and Hindi on the other, no such great dividing line exists as there does between English and the sister language of India; and the Congress audience was better able to follow the speakers in Hindi. I am hoping that this University will see to it that the youths who come to it will receive their instruction through the medium of their vernaculars.Our languages the reflection of ourselves, and if you tell me that our languages are too poor to express the best thought, then say that the sooner we are wiped out of existence the better for us. Is there a man who dreams that English can ever become the national language of India? Why this handicap on the nation?Just consider for one moment what an equal race our lads have to run with every English lad.

Answer:

Presume not on thy heart when mine is slain

Thou gav’st me thine not to give back again

Explanation:

In some forms of sonnets, the last two lines create a couplet to close out the conflict of the poem. Slain and again both rhyme (at least, the way it would have been said back when it was written) and create a couplet.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

At first glance, it may seem that ‘Tokyo Blues‘ is about a typical story in which a teenager is in a love triangle. And to some extent, it's true. But the history of Murakami manages to turn events around and highlight the importance of how they happen. It is a short novel, but not light. I have to admit that at the beginning I had my doubts but I really enjoyed reading.  

Tokyo Blues back cover

Although the premise can be seen, the story is told with tact, sensitivity and rawness at some times. All these elements make it a very special book. The story stars unusual characters. Everyone has some emotional tare and some ghosts of the past. They are caught between nostalgia and monotony.

Death, sex, disease and insecurity are key elements in ‘Tokyo Blues’. They are present in virtually the entire book and continually condition the story. So are music and literature because despite the fact that Murakami is a Japanese writer, he is fascinated by certain Western elements that (from what I have read) he introduces into almost all his works. In this case, jazz or The Beatles (who title the book with "Norwegian Wood"), Truman Capote, Fitzgerald or Raymond Chandler.
