The rhetorical devices that President Trump uses in this excerpt are options 3 and 5.

Trump uses overstatement in sentence number 5.

Overstatement is saying something to lay emphasis or give a profound meaning, as to make the point more important than it is. As a result, Trump uses overstatement when he puts emphasis on the word America.

Moreover, he uses repetition in sentences number 6 and 7.

Repetition is a rhetorical device in which the person repeats the same word or phrases several times, to make the idea more concrete or memorable. This device appears when Trump uses the word "protect" multiple times in his speech.

Should New York City New York be capitalized
natka813 [3]

Answer: No it shouldn't

Explanation:

"Unless "city" is part of the name (i.e. "Carson City" or "New York City"), it's not capitalized after the city's name. Even used before (as in "City of"), the capitalization only happens if the title of the city in question actually has that name ("City of London", "City of New York")."

Read the excerpt below from act 2.2 of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar and answer the question that follows. CAESAR: Cowards die ma
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: What does this excerpt reveal about Caesar´s attitude towards death, would be, A: Caesar´s thinks that the valiant bravely face death, which should not be prevented, or feared.

Explanation:

"The Tragedy of Julius Caesar" is a historical and tragic play that was written by William Shakespeare around 1599. In this particular excerpt Caesar shows that strong men, brave men, are characterized because they confront death without fear, do not run away from it, but rather almost embrace it when the time comes. Whereas the cowardly always seem to run away from death because they fear it, and thus they are always running away from it, because their main characteristic is to run away from everything. The fact of never running from death, of facing it, and accepting it, once, is, according to Caesar, the definition of a brave man.
