This question is about "A tale of two cities" by Chales Dickens

Answer:

The author uses many adjectives to describe the moments of brutality and terror during the French revolution. This creates the dark and sinister tone suggestive of death.

Explanation:

As you did not mention a specific part of the story, we can say that the book "A tale of two cities" promotes a dark and sinister tone due to the use of negative adjectives during the narration.

Dickens is highly praised for his ability to create mental images in his narratives. These mental images are perceived through the efficient use of adjectives. In "a tale of two cities," Dickens uses these adjectives to promote the dark and sinister tone of history, by creating mental images that intensify the perception of brutality, violence and terror that happened during the Russian revolution.

Select the correct text in the passage.

Helga [31]

Answer:

b. And when the dictators, if the dictators, are ready to make war upon us, they will not wait for an act of war on our part. They did not wait for Norway or Belgium or the Netherlands to commit an act of war.

Explanation:

This quote is the best application of logos. Logos is a rhetorical technique of using "logic" and reasonable appeals to make a point, as opposed to pathos (emotion) or ethos (credibility).

This excerpt above lists concrete examples--Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands--that have suffered from these democracies. FDR is using a logical argument here: he's saying, look at all these other examples that have suffered, and follow my approach instead.

Lena [83]

Passini's long pieces of dialogue in A Farewell to Arms (1929) indicate that Passini feels passionately about his beliefs.

In this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's novel, Passini is fully convinced that a war never finishes and that victory is only an illusion. He believes that victory does not mean the end of a war since enemies will keep fighting. He also argues that the real victory, which is the end of the war, could only be achieved if one side stops fighting. Passini defends his truth fiercely in his dialogue with the tenant by presenting a strong argument and using rhetorical questions.
