The answer would be C

Now in the third year of his (FDR) administration, we find more of our people unemployed than at any other time. We find our houses empty and our people hungry, many of them half-clothed and many of them not clothed at all….We find not only the people going further into debt, but that the United States is going further into debt. The states are going further into debt, and the cities and towns are even going into bankruptcy. The condition has become deplorable. Instead of his promises, the only remedy that Mr. Roosevelt has prescribed is to borrow more money if he can and to go further into debt. The last move was to borrow $5 billion more on which we must pay interest for the balance of our lifetimes, and probably during the lifetime of our children…

That is why the Share Our Wealth societies are forming in every nook and corner of America….They have a great work to perform. Here is what we stand for in a nutshell:

Number one, we propose that every family in America should at least own a homestead equal in value to not less than one third the average family wealth…. So our first proposition means that every family will have a home and the comforts of a home up to a value of not less than around $5,000 or a little more than that.

Number two, we propose that no family shall own more than three hundred times the average family wealth, which means that no family shall possess more than a wealth of approximately $5 million….

Number three, we propose that every family shall have an income equal to at least one third of the average family income in America…. We propose that no family will have an earning of less than around $2,000 to $2,500 and that none will have more than three hundred times the average less the ordinary income taxes, which means that a million dollars would be the limit on the highest income.
What is the dominant form of evidence used in this passage?

A) ethical evidence
B) logical evidence
C) emotional evidence
D) there is no type of evidence that is dominant

Answers

Answer: Logical evidence

Explanation:

This whole section is very straightforward. There are a lot of statistics, numbers, and facts for the American people.

Thus, it can't be emotional evidence.

To continue, its not discussing ethics (people's behavior). It's just assigning funds to American families.

So, it has to be logical evidence, which makes sense because FDR describes the condition of the US and the moves he has to take to make sure that the country doesn't end up in economic difficulty.

Answer:

Now to cover the principles of the share-our-wealth society, I give them in order:

1. To limit poverty:

We propose that a deserving family shall share in our wealth of America at least for one third the average. An average family is slightly less than five persons. The number has become less during depression. The United States total wealth in normal times is about $400 billion or about $15,000 to a family. If there were fair distribution of our things in America, our national wealth would be three or four or five times the $400 billion, because a free, circulating wealth is worth many times more than wealth congested and frozen into a few hands as is America's wealth. But, figuring only on the basis of wealth as valued when frozen into a few hands, there is the average of $15,000 to the family. We say that we will limit poverty of the deserving people. One third of the average wealth to the family, or $5,000, is a fair limit to the depths we will allow any one man's family to fall. None too poor, none too rich.

–Huey Long,

February 5, 1934

Why does Long believe that distributing about $15,000 to each US family would increase the nation’s wealth to more than $400 billion?  

It would create hope for the lower classes and inspire them to work harder.  

It would make things more even for all Americans.  

It would limit the depths of poverty that anyone can sink into.  

It would increase cash circulation in the market because more people would be spending.

O

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that best adds dramatic tension is Option C: Drawing up a timetable for my exam preparations beforehand and revising lessons every day was my pathway to success,  as I knew that my classmates were extremely competitive.

Explanation:

Dramatic tension is an important part of any literature work or a film. It can be defined as excitement or an anticipation of the result of a story, for example, climax of a suspense novel. Dramatic tension can be loud or quite in nature. It may include surprises, mysteries, tasks, uncertainty.

In Option C, the writer mentions the tasks he is performing everyday to succeed in the exam because he knows that his classmates are extremely competitive. They arouse the curiosity of the outcome of the exam. The other options use words like, somewhat competitive, sort of competitive or fairly competitive for the classmates, which do not arouse dramatic tension like in Option C.

PLEASE HELP!!!!! :)I need help writing and fixing my article. This is my article:Upon arriving at the giant red tent that hosted this marvelous event the boys were hit first by the potent smell of hot dogs and popcorn. Finding their seats in the bleachers, the two boys devoured bags of cotton candy as they waited for the show to start. The dark smothered the boys and their parents like a piercing night. They were all sitting there for close to a half an hour before the show began. Finally the ringleader came out and introduced himself as The Great Barlow. There were many cheers from the crowd as the show finally began. Three dancing clowns appeared from backstage and began juggling bowling pins as they rode around on unicycles. The crowd went wild with laughter as one of them pretended to fall off with a comical yelp. Dan though gave a small yelp of fear to his brother Christopher as he saw the mixture of drooping frowns and grotesquely large smiles. Dan’s mom gave him a reassuring smile saying, “It’s alright Dan. All it is is makeup.” But not even his mother's reassurance quieted his fears. He breathed a deep sigh of relief as they left the arena. After many acts of tightrope walkers and acrobats the ring leader appeared again and said that they were all in for a special treat because it’s not every day that people got to see the Magnificent Frederick the Fire Breather. A tall lean man came out to center ring holding nothing but a match in his hand and a bottle of what was presumed to be alcohol. After striking the match and taking a swig from the bottle, Fredrick held up the match to his mouth and let out a thin stream of the liquid in his mouth. Immediately the liquid caught fire and shot a straight line of fire right at the crowd! The crowd jumped in there seats as the flames flew toward them but disappeared before it hurt anyone. The crowd once again roared with approval as they flew from there seats in a loud burst of applause. The room once again went dark as strobe lights flashed around the room. “And now,” an invisible voice boomed, “For the grand finally!” The whole room erupted in light as the entire cast from the show came out all of them performing their act. Clowns danced and fell and made people laugh while tightrope walkers danced above the crowd. Frederick breathed fire at the crowd again and even lit a ring on fire that a the lion tamer had his lions jump through. Dan was enjoying himself so much that he had completely forgot his fear of clowns. He had loved the show so much! The crowd roared their approval with there claps and shouts for more. But like all good things The Great Barlow's North American Circus had to come to an end. As the last clown danced off stage and the last flame blinked out the circus was over. The boys practically skipped to their parents car all the while talking about all the magnificent things they had seen. The boys had had the time of their life and this wasn't an experience they would forget. These are the corrections my teacher told me I need to make:I enjoyed reading your story - you have employed wonderful descriptive details! You do need to include dialogue, and strengthening the conflict would be great! Can you identify the events that make up the rising action? Which event would you say is the climax? When does Dan have to make a choice that solves his conflict? You've described the circus very well. But the conflict isn't readily apparent - his fear of clowns doesn't appear to be a problem for Dan. You would need to include more to develop the conflict, than his mother telling him to not be afraid. 5/5 Introduction 2/5 Conflict 2/5 Rising Action/ Event #1 0/5 Rising Action/ Event #2 0/5 Climax 5/5 Sensory Language (Example 1) 5/5 Sensory Language (Example 2) 0/5 Dialogue 5/5 Word Count 5/5 Clear writing
