Answer:

D. Impressive because of the recipients of her wealth

Explanation:

Abigail Adams was the wife of John Adams, the second president of the United States, and the mother of John Quincy Adams, the sixth president.

The given quote is from an article <em>Abigail Adams’ Last Act of Defiance</em> written by Woody Holton. Among other things, it tells about Adams' will, where she left her fortune to her female relatives and servants. She didn't include any male relatives or servants, except for her two surviving sons, in the will. This is why the contents of this will were impressive, almost shocking. Her husband, John, could've ignored the will because it wasn't legally binding, but he did everything she had written there.

This is why the correct option is option D.

Why does Jaggers call Wemmick the "most cunning imposter in all of London?"
OleMash [197]
Jaggers calls Wemmick the most cunning imposter in all of London because <em>Jaggers disagrees with what Pip said</em> that Wemmick is a kind-hearted person. Because the <em>Wemmick that Jaggers knew is different from what Pip described him to be.</em> The Wemmick that Jaggers knew is different. The Wemmick that he knew can often be such a calculating individual in his business dealings. That is why Jaggers jokingly referred to him as the most cunning imposter in all of London.

Which of the following advertisements effectively appeals to logic?
kirill [66]
<span>C. "Recent studies have shown that people who exercise live longer than people who do not. Come try our new exercise program. Free one-month trial."

This appeals to logic because it is stating information that is "proven" (based on whatever this study was), which will get people thinking less emotionally and more logically about the benefits.</span>
