"Rhetoric is the art of effective, persuasive speaking or writing."
The day started simple, me and my brother walking to school, but it quickly changed when my bullies appeared. My brother understood that they were mean to me because of my “choices” to be transgender. They screamed “tranny” and other slurs as they danced around us. My face was red and i was close to tears, my brother quickly grabbed me and pulled me to school. I was a little relieved but that quickly went away when those boys followed us, their slurs had turned into threats. One pulled a knife out of his pocket, the others cheered him on. As he ran to me and my brother, knife at the ready, i screamed for my brother to run. Picking myself up, I ran for an abandoned house. I didn’t look back until i heard a scream. I was already in the upstairs of the house, i ran back downstairs to see the boy on the table with a knife in his stomach. My brother stood over him staring at his bloody hands. The crimson liquid dropped down from the table at a steady rate. What had he done?
this was really fun thanks!!!

Explanation:
Literacy gave the Spanish access to “a huge body of knowledge about human behavior and history” Atahuallpa and other native peoples, in contrast,
had never been exposed to the Spaniards or any other “invaders from overseas" Had he been aware of information about similar threats of colonization, Atahuallpa may not have “walk[ed] into [Pizarro’s] trap” (p. 76) so readily.
Answer: The quote "Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant ", by the poet Horace, is true to my life and I think is true for all life. The meaning behind it is that many times a person can face adversity and develop traits and talents that they would have never developed without those adversities. Although many people may think that adversity holds people back, I think that it enhances learning, exposes weakness, and helps us better understand ourselves. Without adversity it would be very difficult for people to advance and adapt in life.
With adversity comes learning. If life was always the same and your day to day process was a routine, then you would not learn very much. A person who lives like that would become very good at the things they do over and over again but then as soon that life style changes, they would have no idea what to do. That is why it is important to have adversity in life because it helps to learn when new situations occur. It also helps develop pristine skills and talents used in problem solving that would never exist without adversity.
Another advantage to having adversity in life is the exposure of weakness and the fortification of mental strength. When adversity comes up and we are easily able to solve the problem, we know that if that ever comes up again that we will have no problem bouncing back from that setback. If a larger and more severe situation occurs in out life and we are not able to handle it as well as other ones, we know that it is a weakness. Finding a weakness is beneficial for two reasons. The first is that it gives us something to practice for so that we are better at assessing such situations. The second is that it gives us something to watch out for and possibly makes us more careful to avoid that situation occurring again
