1 answer:

8 0

Regarding current political issues, Paine and Thoreau's position would be divergent and could be contradictory to each other depending on the interpretation.

According to "The Crisis", Paine would support a policy that allows the United States to expand and interfere with policies in other countries that may harm or benefit Americans. Paine, shows in his work, how the USA should be a sovereign nation, even if it implies conflicts and crises.

Thoreau, on the other hand, would not support this policy that interferes in the decisions of other countries, since in his work "Civil Disobedience", he refuses the expansion of the USA when it causes suffering and loss of other nations, through an expense high economic value, which could be better used to solve national problems.

the principal cancelled the prom you are trying to persuade him to reconsider, use ethos, pathos or logos to write your sentence

trapecia [35]

Logos- "Prom usually makes students happy, and recent evidence has shown that when students are more happy they tend to focus more, which brings grades up and ultimately helps the school's reputation."

Ethos- "Many professionals recommend having a prom so that the students' minds can relax and to give them a small break so that they come back with more focus, drive and motivation."

Pathos- "Prom gives us students a break from all of the homework and studying and misery, and we would really appreciate it if you gave us just those hours of freedom before we submerge ourselves in our books once more."

I hope any of these work for you!

Which statement from the passage proves that donuts are indeed a desert tradition

goblinko [34]

C. These early doughnuts were found in prehistoric Native American ruins.

C is the best answer. A tradition is something that has been around for a while. Option C says that doughnuts were found in prehistoric Native American ruins which means that they have been around for a long long time. Option D is not a good choice because it doesn't say anything about donuts, it's only about bread. The other options do not indicate that they have been around for a significant portion of time.
