The correct answer is "Ethos".

"Ethos" is a Greek word that means "character". It is also used to make reference to beliefs or ideas that characterize a group of people. This term is often used to describe the persuasive technique of being able to reach someone's behavior or morals and influence them in order to obtain the desired result.

In this case, Laurel is trying to convince them that she has a strong sense of responsibility, as she has worked as a baby sitter before despite having the option to go out with her friends.

Change the phrase "shooting the breeze" because it is too informal and cannot be understood literally.

The answer to your question would be direct and approval. You can rule out all the options that have affection and focus on the ones that have approval. You have to choose between extrinsic and direct. Ask yourself, which one makes more sense? Plug in the words to see if any make sense and find the answer. Hope this helps!

What can I draw for this Quote
Zielflug [23.3K]

What I would draw from that quote, would be to be who you are and don't let peoples opinion about you make any difference. Also don't let social media or peers of anyone of the sort, try changing who you are, but rather be yourself.

Hope this helps!

Reposted personal narritive

Answer:

personal narrative

Explanation:

   If my mind were a place, it would be distant and unlike any other place. The weather would be sunny. The sunlight wouldn't hurt my eyes, it would be just right. It wouldn't be too hot either. The air would be cool and there would be a constant breeze flowing through the grassy hills that would lead up to the beach. The beach would be wide and vast. It would continue past what my eyes would be able to see. And the ocean would be clear. I would be able to see the fish as they swam past reefs and rocks and other creatures of all sorts.

   Upon continuation of that thought, there would be no one else there except me. Unless, of course, I wanted people there. But my mind would be a rural place, were outsiders would not be welcome. It would just be me, and my house on my beach, unless I decided to give them the directions there. My house would be beautiful, able to withstand any weather that would be possible. Hurricanes of any size and any type. My house would be whatever color I want, depending on the day or how I'm feeling. I wouldn't even have to paint it. It would just change effortlessly, like my emotions.

    Nevertheless, as beautiful as my mind sounds, that doesn't mean that the place couldn't change. Hurricanes could show up, and while my house would be fine, the area surrounding it wouldn't. Loud noise and crazy thoughts might swarm my mind which would look like tropical storms and fierce winds. Any surrounding animals or natural life would be temporarily affected, maybe even ruined. Which is why it is a good idea to keep my place distant, far away from any people, or any storms. My beach would be kept pristine and beautiful, with it in even better condition than my house. The animals would be at ease, and so would the sky.
