Read the last line of the poem “One, Two, Three” and the biographical information about Hannah Senesh, and then answer the quest

ion that follows. I gambled on what mattered most, the dice were cast. I lost. Hannah Senesh joined the British Army in 1943, and would volunteered to enter Hungary in an effort to provide aid to the Jewish communities that were under attack. The Hungarian police almost immediately captured her, and she underwent cruel torture as they attempted to obtain information from her about her mission. However, Senesh refused to tell them anything, and refused to request clemency. Even threats against her mother did not compel her to cooperate with the Hungarian police. She remained courageous and committed to her cause, and when she was executed for treason by firing squad at the age of twenty-three, she refused the blindfold and instead stared down her executors. Based on the biographical information about Hannah Senesh, what inference could be made about the "gamble" referred to in the last line of the poem? Include information from the biographical excerpt to support your inference.

Answer:

written below

Explanation:

Because Hannah called her decision a gamble, we can infer that Hannah knew that her decision to leave everything behind and fight for her cause could end in her death. She knew that it might be death and she accepted that. There is nothing better to die for than for something you believe in. To most people dying for something that isn't fame, money, or power, and is in actuality dying quite young it is psychotic. To Hannah it was effortless and it inspires so many to do the right thing no matter what!

Answer:

The speech relies more on ethos than the poem does

Explanation:

Ethos is the part of reasoning that involves ethics and credibility. For instance, if a respectable scientist was explaining a concept and confidently asserting things, their words would have more power to affect the audience. In his speech, Lincoln is considered a respected figure, and he speaks with conviction. Meanwhile, the poem relies more on the emotional element, and not so much on ethos. Therefore, I would select the answer that the speech relies more on ethos than the poem does. Hope this helps!
