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!

In act 4 of Romeo and Juliet what is one example of dramatic irony
ozzi
In scene 4, lines 1-30, Capulet tries to get Juliet to marry Paris. Capulet decorates the wedding to where it would be perfect. He wants Juliet to marry Paris because he was very wealthy and he had great fame. 
<span>Capulet had given Juliet her freedom as a child and he wanted her to </span>hurry<span> up and marry Paris before she got too old. </span>
<span>The audience, Friar and the nurse were the only people who knew about Romeo and Juliets marriage. Romeo and Juliet fell in love and they knew that they shouldnt be able to get married. This makes it a dramatic irony because Juliet is already married to Romeo.</span>

In “The Lady of Shalott” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, what causes the curse to take effect?
anastassius [24]
D. Sir Lancelot rides by on his horse. 

Lady Shalott was a lady living all alone in a tower near Camelot. She's cursed and she didn't know what the curse was. She must only weave images on her loom reflected from her mirror the busy life of the people in Camelot. But she didn't look directly down there. 
Until one day, she saw Sir Lancelot riding by on his horse down to Camelot. She was fascinated by the knight's face, so she stopped weaving and looked directly down at Camelot to where he was heading. Because of this incident, the mirror cracked from one side to the other, bringing about the curse. 

The main cause is the appearance of Sir Lancelot to the lady's eyes because that causes her to stop weaving and to look directly down Camelot which therefore causes the mirror to crack. The cracking of the mirror is only a sign that the curse has taken effect not the cause.
