Hazel had a perfectly average intelligence, which meant she couldn’t think about anything except in short bursts. And George, wh

ile his intelligence was way above normal, had a little mental handicap radio in his ear. He was required by law to wear it at all times. It was tuned to a government transmitter. Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains.How could this excerpt serve as a warning about the consequences of forced uniformity?

Answer: c. by implying that forced uniformity interferes with individuals’ intellectual development

Explanation:

In the book, "Harrison Bergeron," humanity is in a dystopian society where there is an emphasis on equality such that people who have an edge over others and given handicaps to bring them level with the rest of the population.

George here is being made to wear a mental handicap that limits his use of his above average intelligence. George is therefore unable to grow intellectually because of the handicap forced on him to promote uniformity and equality.

Read the letter carefully and write a well developed essay that analyzes the rhetorical strategies Browning uses to petition Nap
chubhunter [2.5K]

This question asks for an essay, which is a personal task that only you can complete. However, we are still able to provide some guidance that can help you complete your work.

In her "Letter to Napoleon III," Elizabeth Barrett Browning employs several rhetorical strategies to urge Napoleon III to forgive the author Victor Hugo and free him from his imprisonment.

Browning uses ethos when she presents herself as a fair person. Ethos refers to an appeal to credibility, and Browning employs it when she agrees with Napoleon about the wrong nature of Victor Hugo's actions. She also employs a paradox to force Napoleon to pay close attention to her argument. The paradox is that, even though Victor Hugo acted against the emperor, he deserves to be free. Browning employs anaphora when she repeats the phrase "what touches you" in order to convince Napoleon of the importance of his reputation. Finally, she uses pathos (an appeal to emotion) when she highlights how grateful and admiring Napoleon's subjects will be if he pardons Victor Hugo.
