PLEASE HELP ILL MARK BRAINIEST. Read an excerpt from President Barack Obama's 2011 Address to Congress on the American Jobs Act.

This past week, reporters have been asking, “What will this speech mean for the President? What will it mean for Congress? How will it affect their polls, and the next election?” But the millions of Americans who are watching right now, they don’t care about politics. They have real-life concerns. Many have spent months looking for work. Others are doing their best just to scrape by -- giving up nights out with the family to save on gas or make the mortgage; postponing retirement to send a kid to college. These men and women grew up with faith in an America where hard work and responsibility paid off. They believed in a country where everyone gets a fair shake and does their fair share -- where if you stepped up, did your job, and were loyal to your company, that loyalty would be rewarded with a decent salary and good benefits; maybe a raise once in a while. If you did the right thing, you could make it. Anybody could make it in America. For decades now, Americans have watched that compact erode. They have seen the decks too often stacked against them. And they know that Washington has not always put their interests first. How does the president use pathos to achieve his purpose?
A. By listing hardships faced by Americans to create feelings of empathy

B. By explaining how people have lost trust in America to show why the Jobs Act is logical

C. By imagining a better future to give Americans hope

D. By sharing a personal story about a reporter to help Americans understand his priorities

PLEASE HELP ME DUE ASAP I REALLY NEED HELP THERE ARE 4 QUESTIONS!!!
Marina CMI [18]

1.) both A and D are technically phrases that modify the subject since both use the pronoun "his" which is referring to "Jerome"(subject). I think the more likely to be

D since the phrase is more obvious because it's a prepositional phrase instead of a gerund.

2.) the answer is C because it contsins a subject(show), a verb(let), but begins with a suboordinatin conjunction (after) which means the clause needs an independent clause in order to support it. The rest of the of the

options are phrases, and C could easily be mistaken as a phase considering it starts with "after" which is a preposition. However, because the remark contains a subject and a verb, the word "after" becomes a suboordinating conjunction instead of a preposition.

3.) D is correct because it contains a single independent clause (it was time to get out the sweaters) along with at least one dependent clause (When the birds flew south for the winter).

4.) C is correct because it contains a single independent clause (Andrea could not open the mailbox) along with at least one dependent clause (Since she forgot the key to the lock).

yey
