Answer: c. appeals to reason

definition: a rhetorical strategy where the argument is made by presenting facts that lead the audience to a specific conclusion.

Explanation:

the technique is trying to explain to the reader why a riverside bypass is a logical solution to the problem. throughout the passage, the author states information about the problem. for example: "traffic on main street has become a pervasive problem. one possible solution is to create a bypass. traffic records suggest that more then 60 percent of vehicles that go down main street are simply passing through town on their way to someplace else. right now, drivers have no choice but to drive on main street. if a bypass was built, they would almost always use it."

Hope this helps!

Have a great day and night!

Explain why this quote is meaningful.
Art [367]

"Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy."

I'd say this quote is meaningful in a sense that Ralph wanted to bring an end to innocence and the darkness that dwells in one's heart. "and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy." I think this line means that he also wanted true and honest people to fall, being call "wise friend called piggy" I think means that when he is "wise" this isn't meant to be taken seriously. This is a sarcastic wkrd to describe him, for he is in fact not wise, because he wants to basically bring the end to all good that would come to man. I also chose (C) Connect because I have connected the meaning of the quote to the reader.
