Read the following passage from "The War Prayer":
None could remember the life of it for passionate pleading and moving and beautiful language. The burden of it's supplication was, that the ever-merciful and benignant Father of us all would watch over our noble young soldiers, and aid, comfort and encourage them in their patriotic work.
What device does Twain use to support the mood of the passage?
A. Metonymy
B. Asyndeton
C. Polyptoton
D. Polysyndeton
Answer:
D. Polysyndeton
Explanation:
Polysyndeton is a literary device in which conjunctions are used repeatedly in quick succession even when they could be omitted. These conjunctions are often not preceded by commas. The purpose of this device is to change the rhythm of the text.
Twain uses polysyndeton twice in the given passage:
None could remember the life of it for passionate pleading and moving and beautiful language. (Instead of: None could remember the life of it for passionate pleading, moving, and beautiful language.)The burden of its supplication was, that the ever-merciful and benignant Father of us all would watch over our noble young soldiers, and aid, comfort and encourage them in their patriotic work. (Instead of: ... Father of us all would watch over our noble young soldiers, aid, comfort, and encourage them in their patriotic work.)Metonymy is a literary device in which something is referred to by the name of something else closely associated with it (e.g. crown instead of the king or queen).
Asyndeton is a literary device in which conjunctions are omitted from a series of related clauses (e.g. I came. I saw. I conquered.)
Polyptoton is a literary device in which words derived from the same root are repeated (e.g. blood and bleed).

Read the following poem and answer the question that follows.
"I Like to See it Lap the Miles" by Emily Dickinson
I like to see it lap the miles,
And lick the valleys up,
And stop to feed itself at tanks;
And then, prodigious, step
Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads;
And then a quarry pare
To fit its sides, and crawl between,
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza;
Then chase itself down hill
And neigh like Boanerges;
Then, punctual as a star,
Stop-docile and omnipotent-
At its own stable door.
This poem describes a train as if it were a horse. Which lines uses imagery to describe sound of a train?
a
"In horrid, hooting stanza,"
b
"And lick the valleys up"
c
"I like to see it lap the miles"

Read this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence:
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for
Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions
have been answered only by repeated injury.
Which of these rhetorical devices is most clearly used here?
A. Inductive logic
B. Ethos
C. Deductive logic
D. Logos
Answer:
B. Ethos
Explanation:
The rhetorical device that is most clearly used here is "Ethos".
Ethos is known as a rhetoric device which is seen to appeal to ethics and to the credibility of the speaker. The speaker here makes his argument against the opposition of man and not making his own point of view. It's clear that the speaker uses 'ad hominem argument'. In this type of argument, the speaker tends to reproach the personality of the opponent.
As the speaker here uses "ad hominem argument", he tends to make himself to appeal credible to the audience. He makes his argument by criticizing his opponent, the Britain King. He argues that despite they have written petitions for a redress, their petitions were only answered by injury from Britain.
Answer:
Answer is: Ethos

Which evidence does the author use to support the
argument that a poor diet can be harmful to one's
health?
Read the excerpt from "Healthy Eating."
But no one can ignore the damage being wrought by all
this bad eating. More than one out of three adults in the
United States -- 37.5 percent -- are obese, according to
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Some
of the leading causes of death -- heart disease, stroke
and type 2 diabetes - are directly linked to obesity. And
childhood obesity has tripled in the last 30 years. With
more than a third of kids between 6 and 19 considered
obese, the CDC reports, they are at substantially more
risk for developing cardiovascular disease, diabetes,
bone and joint conditions, and cancer.

EZ PTS!! 7 PTS!, What is a satire? What is the difference between irony and satire?, in ur own words, in a simple way/manner (not from google if u dont know the answer then just dont answer!!)
Answer:
Irony is when something opposite of what's expected happens. For example, a police station getting robbed is ironic. This is situational irony. Irony can also be verbal - when someone says something opposite from what they actually think. If someone says It's such nice weather today! while there is a storm going on outside, they are being ironic.
Satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to mock people's mistakes and vices. It's often used to criticize public figures.
In the short story, "The Fun They Had," what evidence BEST supports Tommy's
characterization as a bad friend? *
"Tommy looked at her with very superior eyes" (2).
"Because it's not our kind of school, stupid" (2).
"If you don't like it, you don't need to read it" (3).
"He walked away whistling, the dusty old book tucked beneath his arm" (3).
Answer:
"Because it's not our kind of school, stupid".
Explanation:
The given excerpt is from a short story called The Fun They Had written by Isaac Asimov. The story is set sometime in the future, when children already have mechanical teachers. A boy named Tommy finds a book about old schools - the schools we have today. He tells about it to Margie. During the conversation, he tells her: "Because it's not our kind of school, stupid". This sentence contains an insult, and based on that we can conclude that Tommy is not a good friend.
