Answer:

Ethos

Explanation:

Ethos, also known as Credibility or Ethical Appeal is a reference to the authority and suitability of a person to preside over a matter. This appeal is one of the three appeals (Ethos, Pathos, and Logos) used to help speakers win an argument. Ethos cites the position or qualification of a subject to instill confidence in the audience that a position which they support should be believed.

When John Adams mentioned the positions of Kings, Ministers, Ancestors, and the whole nation, he thus wants the audience to believe that the consequence was valid because these notable personalities endorsed it.

Exercise 2 Draw one line under each simple subject and two lines under each compound predicate in the following sentences.
Mars2501 [29]

The given statement has the word audience as a subject. And compound predicates are drama and third.

Live theater heightens <u>drama </u>and adds a <u>third </u>dimension for the <u>audience</u>.

What is the subject and compound predicate?

In grammar, the subject can be defined as the word or phrase that describes the noun, pronouns, as well as noun phrases that occur before the verb in the sentences. It also describes the position in a sentence as well as controls the phrase in the sentences. And the verb is the action in the sentence, or it links the sentence through information.

Similarly, compound predicates always share the same subject, provided two or more verbs occur in the sentence. It is joined by a conjunction in a sentence like and, neither, nor, either, or, etc. In the given statement, the word audience defines the subject whereas the words like drama and third define the compound predicates.

Read the simile and its meaning: strong as an ox−very strong Select the sentence that correctly uses the simile. Jim typed fast
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Jim lifted the heavy bag of concrete because he was as strong as an ox.

Explanation:

It is the fourth one because it is the only sentence describing someone/thing as strong. (as an ox.)

The first one has nothing to do with being strong.

The second one would be correct if it was "The boat was as strong as an ox as it persevered through the rough waters.", but since that isn't the sentence, it wouldn't work.

The third one is incorrect because if the toy was made to be as strong as an ox, why is it breaking into tiny pieces?

Therefore, the fourth one is right. :)

Which of these statements best summarizes the events that take place in the land of the Lotus Eaters (Lotophagi) in Homer's Odys
Tpy6a [65]

Odysseus and his men encounter the land of the lotus eaters in Book Nine. Now, after being carried in the sea for nine whole days they land on Lotophagi on the the tenth day. Of course after all that time on sea, Odysseus and his men would grow hungry. So, before further continuation of their journey they ate. Soon after, Odysseus sent out three men to explore the island. Inevitably, they encounter the “Lotus-eaters,” who were the people of Lotophagi. They were rather kind and never wanted to cause harm. Now, again, the lotus-eaters ment harm to no man, so they offered Odysseus’s men a lotus. Although, the men of Odysseus had no knowledge that whomever ate the honey flavored fruit would no longer long to return home, or would no longer care for things that were once sacred to them. No, instead when one devoured the taste of a Lotus, they’d only crave for the taste of even more Lotus. Thus, after Odysseus men ate the Lotus, they forgot of their important mission; To return to Ithaca. Odysseus then has to force his onto their ship, so they can return home.


This short summary of what happened on the land the is called Lotophagi, proves that the correct answer to this question is b ) Some of Odysseus's men taste the lotus fruit and refuse to leave the island. Odysseus takes them back to the ship by force.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

protuberances - example

avarice - antonym

inundation - definition/explanation

Explanation:

The type of context clue that helps the reader determine the meaning of the word protuberances is example. Following the word protuberance is a list of protuberances: "rocks, bushes, and ledges". These are all examples.

For avarice, the context clue used is antonym. Initially the speaker says he's going to be generous, but then he uses the signal word "instead" to show that avarice is a contrast to generous. Avarice is greed.

The word inundation is further defined or explained when the rest of the sentence explains the water flooding streets and basements.
