Based on the information presented in "i believe in the also rans" what is one message the reader can infer

English
1 answer:
nadezda [96]3 years ago

Answer:

winning does not necessarily mean achieving the first position.

Explanation:

In the short essay "I Believe in the Also-Rans " by Clive B, the author attempts to remind the readers how achievements in schools and universities have very little to do once we enter the real world.

He thinks that humans are depressed because we glorify winning and achieving great heights too much. Clive realizes this when he notice how Cyrus, one among his daughter's two playmates, proclaims and shout in celebration that he won the third place in the race although there were only three of them.

The one message that we can infer from this essay is winning does not necessarily mean achieving the first position. It can also mean accomplishing or completing the race.

Which statement is an example of the author's use of logos that might be used in an argument?
Murljashka [212]

'Logos' in Literature, can be simply defined as an appeal to logic. It's a device (a tool) used by writers (and implicitly by common people in everyday speaking).

It is one of the three called 'Aristotelian appeals' (Logos, Ethos, and Pathos). The most important thing to know about them here is that they all serve a common purpose: Prove the author's argument. Logos aims to do this through logic.

So usual characteristics of this tool are the use of facts, statistics, etc. (Please note that the sole use of these elements does not characterize Logos. Logos appears when these elements are used, again, to sustain an argument.)

Therefore the best answer would be letter B. As by stating his firsthand experience, the author tries to legitimate any argument he proposes after that.
