It might be stated that Mill employed a combination of formal and informal tone in "On liberty..", by developing some complex ideas, meanings and expressions. The author used metaphors and figurative languages to appeal to the audience. It might be added that Mill wrote those who agreed with him and he discussed his thesis by attacking the conservatives. 
He used frases such as <span> "no one's idea," "no one should assert," "it would be absurd," "nobody denies" . </span>

It is of course effective.He wants people to understand that".. giving freedom to human nature.." will cause conflicts but that is a human characteristic.

Mills rejects any type of coercion in peoples´opinions or in the way they act.Punishment should be inflicted only when the freedom of a human hurts his equals.When Mills expresses his points of view in the essay he convinces people that it is the right manner, there is no other fashion for living but that of being in liberty.

Mills chose the essay to convey his ideas because he wanted to be taken seriosly .He used  the resource of rhetoric  as it gave him the opportunity of making people reflect on what he wrote and ask themselves on the importance of  acting freely.

What's the correct way to rewrite the following sentence?
pogonyaev
The answer is A. Use the gerund at the beginning to show action, complete the sentence with subject and verb that show why the action was completed. This concise method is widely used and generally understood by readers at first glance. Other arrangements may technically work but will likely cause confusion.
