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.

Which two quotations support the idea that these events took place many years ago?
kolezko [41]

The two quotations that show these events took place many years ago are "Many, many centuries ago..." and "...he showed men how to build fires for themselves.."

<h3>What is a quotation?</h3>

We can define a quotation as a passage taken from someone else's text and used in another text. Quotations are, in a way, a copy of the same exact words used by the original author. Whenever we use a quotation in our own work, we must give the author due credit.

Here, we are to analyze the quotations provided in the answer choices and choose the two that support the idea that the events narrated took place many years ago. Therefore, we can choose the following quotations:

  • "Many, many centuries ago there lived a Titan named Prometheus.” (paragraph 1)
  • “On Earth, he showed men how to build fires for themselves, and it was not long before they began to do all the wonderful things of which Prometheus had dreamed.” (paragraph 10)

The first quotation is the most obvious one, since it uses the words "many, many centuries ago." Now, the second quotation is a bit trickier, but we can see that it indicates the events took place many years ago because it speaks of a time when men were not able to build fires by themselves.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answers provided above are correct.
