Answer:

We remember events in vague and indistinct ways.

Explanation:

By comparing memory to a painting, the author is metaphorically speaking, saying that memories, just like paintings, they represent things as they feel and not just how they are. Memories can't be the same as the reality. But they can retain most of the things, the feel of it but not in the same sense as the real feel. By saying that "<em>Memory is an abstract painting</em>", the author means that memories holds the best qualities of those incidents or situations just like an artists paints something and that stays as it is represented, not the real truth but in a vague and indistinct way.

Why is pathos sometimes more effective than other styles of rhetoric?
3241004551 [841]
Pathos is all about emotion. Pathos are all about appealing to a person's emotions to make your point hit closer to home. For example, an article aimed at an audience of mothers may use pathos by telling a heartbreaking story of a mother and her child to convince the audience of something. Since the audience can relate to the story because they have children, the pathos is effective and they are more likely to sympathize with the point the author is trying to make. Pathos is sometimes more effective than other types of rhetoric because people are easily swayed by their emotions.

The giver chapter 4 summary<br>​
Mila [183]

Answer:

In Chapter 4, Jonas meets Asher so that they can do their mandatory volunteer hours together. Children from eight to eleven volunteer at different locations daily to develop skills and get a sense of their occupational interests. Jonas enjoys volunteer hours because they are less regulated than other hours of his day—he gets to choose where he spends them. He volunteers at a variety of places, enjoying the different experiences, and has no idea what his Assignment will be. Today, he goes to the House of the Old, where he notices Asher’s bike is parked. In the bathing room, he gives a bath to an elderly woman. He appreciates the sense of safety and trust he gets from the woman—it is against the rules to look at other people naked in any situation, but the rule does not apply to the Old or new children. They discuss the release of one of the Old, a man named Roberto. The old woman, Larissa, describes the release as a wonderful celebration—the man’s life story was narrated, he was toasted by the other residents of the House of the Old, he made a farewell speech, and then walked blissfully through a special door to be released. Larissa does not know what actually happens when someone is released, but she assumes it is wonderful; she does not understand why children are forbidden to attend.

Jonathan Swift _____.
Temka [501]
The correct answer is <span>C. feared powerful political groups but believed that individual men can be reasonable and responsible.
Swift was against various political organizations because he believed they were corrupted and they tried to corrupt individuals as well. He believed that people themselves weren't bad, it's just when given power and a chance to control others, they would eventually turn corrupt. His thought was that individuals could also be powerful, whilst retaining their senses, which he did not think was possible in groups.
