How does the use of a rhetorical question help develop a speaker's ideao?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

C. It emphasizes a series of points made by the speaker.

Explanation:

A rhetorical question is a literary device which is a statement in the form of a question used to certify a point and does not elicit a reply. This device is used to provide more clarity to the speaker's central idea and emphasize the value points that he wishes to highlight. It is the central question which the speaker wants the readers' focus to shift upon and thus dramatically raises this statement or question to punch up his point and make it stand out completely and persuade the readers as he (the speaker) wants them to spend some time in thoughtful contemplation .

You have just read the sonnet "The Harlem Dancer" by Claude McKay. In a short essay, analyze the effect of the dancer’s point of
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Her smile is fake. She was somewhere else in her head. She is detached from the situation. The audience thinks that she is delighted to be dancing in front of them. This is about who she is and who she presents herself to be to others. It is really all in the audience's mind that she is enjoying herself. She is very unhappy. It can be really difficult to look at how things are and then trying to understand someone's inner thoughts and self.

The audience is almost predatory and she is graceful and wants to contain her dignity. The speaker in the poem is also pointing to the injustice of society and how she is being dehumanized. Harlem was a poor and mostly black neighborhood. She could get a job there and took it so she can afford to live.

This poem is really about social justice and how these young girls are exploited

I did not write your essay, but I know that you can do it with this information :)
