English

Alina [70]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

C. One of my ancestors fought at the battle of Gettysburg.

Explanation:

Capitalization or the use of capital letters in a sentence or word is used for nouns, especially proper nouns. Moreover, it is also used to start a sentence, with names, months, days, holidays, festivals, etc.

Among the given options, sentence C has an error in the use of capitalization. The "Battle of Gettysburg" is a historical battle fought between the Union and Confederate armies. And thus, the name of the battle is a proper noun. Thus, capital letter should be used when writing the name of the battle.

Thus, the correct way to write the given sentence should be <em>"One of my ancestors fought at the Battle of Gettysburg."</em>

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

•Encourage deep thinking of the audience.

Explanation:

From the first two paragraphs, we discover that Wiesel uses questions. I can deduce that Wiesel uses question in order to encourage deep thinking by the audience.

He tends to throw the question to his audience in order for them to think alongside with him. The questions he asked in those paragraphs tend to bring the audience to think in his line of thought or to see his own views.

Wiesel asks the questions and immediately goes further to provide answers. I believe he uses the questions to engage the mind of his audience.
