Answer:
This inference is supported by the fact that Arthur refers to Sir Ector as "my dear father" and has for him the admiration and love that a son has for his father.
Explanation:
Hi. You did not show the text this question refers to, but after researching this question on the internet and understanding the context of the question, we can assume that it refers to the book "Le Morte d'Arthur" written by Thomas Malory. This book tells the story of King Arthur from childhood to death.
During his childhood, Arthur was raised by the knight known as Sir Ector, who treated him like a biological son until the day he managed to pull the Scalibur sword out of the rock. Arhtur sees Sir Ector as a father and this is evident when he refers to Sir Ector as "my dear father."
The correct answer is: to persuade.
Let's remeber that to persuade is "to make someone do or believe something by giving a good reason to do it or by talking to that person and making them beleieve it." To achieve this, the author can use logic and reason based on evidence and facts, or he can appeal to pathos, the emotions of the audience.
In this case, in the <em>Tilbury Speech</em>, Queen Elizabeth is trying to convince her troops that although she is a woman she is very capable to be a good leader and take them to victory. She is encouraging them to fight against the Spanish invasion. Their later victory against the Spanish Armada shows that this speech was effective as it made the troops follow their queen's leadership.
In the Response to the <em>Parliament's Request that she marry,</em> she persuades the Parliament that she has the freedom to choose what to do with her life. By reading the response, we can see that she chosed very carefully every word, this to keep people calm about her situation. She states that she is not in denial towards marriage but that things can't be rushed. In this way she calmed down the Parliament.
