Explain how the organizational structure of “The Last Lecture” supports Pausch’s purpose for delivering the lecture.
Ede4ka [16]

<u>Answer:</u>

  • ‘The Last Lecture’, this book written by Randy Pausch will be read by generations to come.
  • It is a story of Randy Pausch himself who was a professor at an University in Pittsburgh.
  • In that university there’s a kind of tradition where professors of that University are told to give a lecture and assume it as if it is the Last lecture of their life.

How does Thoreau’s use of rhetorical questions contribute to the persuasiveness and message in “Excerpt from ‘Civil Disobedience
ella [17]

Answer:

Thoreau's usage of several rhetorical questions upon one another helps eloquently establish a rhythm to present similar, but different argumentative key points. Moreover, it gives a rhythm to the text right off the start. Ultimately, it enables him to set up his argument against morals and values that he claims are being controlled by the government, and as well setting an argument for individualism.

Explanation:

The author does not make many direct statements; however, he does use the device of rhetorical questions that are meant to not be answered by neither the reader nor the text.

Hello. You have not entered the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for that question I was able to find another question exactly the same as the article "How Video Games Are Getting Inside Your Head" as the text in question. If this is your case, I hope the answer below can help you.

Answer:

C. Game companies research ways to influence gamers, encouraging them to play longer and to spend more.

Explanation:

The text shows how the gaming industry has a great capacity to attract customers. This capacity is intensified with a strong study in the target public of these industries, where it is possible to recognize the preferences of the customers and intensify those preferences in the next games that will be launched causing the customers to buy more games and spend more time playing. The text presents this statement as the central idea of the entire text, which is the subject on which all arguments are established.
