Answers

Answer 1
Answer: An example of persuasive writing in this case is D - advertisment about Hawaii.

The reason this is a persuasive message and not the other ones is because only in this one is the intention of the writer to persuade the reader into doing something. In this case, going to Hawaii. In all the other cases, being persuasive was not the reason why the piece was written.

Which best describes how the pacing of events heightens tension

Answers

Pacing can add a lot to a story. Pacing should be appropriate to your story's crisis and climax. For example, building action and falling action must have their own paces in order for the story to flow. Sometimes, pacing during certain scenes, such as slow and frustrating events, are meant to build tension and anxiety in the reader. Other times, fast paced events can build anxiety in the reader. Hope this helps.

Answer:

The slow description of the search and surroundings builds anxiety in the reader.

Read this excerpt from “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” by T.S. Elliot. Assuming that Eliot's reference to mermaids in this excerpt symbolizes the sources of inspiration of traditional poetry, what do these lines imply?Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

I do not think that they will sing to me.

I have seen them riding seaward on the waves
Combing the white hair of the waves blown back
When the wind blows the water white and black.
We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
A. The poet wants to escape from the modern world by reverting to traditional poetry.
B. The poet likes traditional poetry, but he feels incapable of working with traditional forms.
C. The poet draws inspiration from the same sources as traditional poets.
D. The poet feels that traditional sources of inspiration are ineffective in the modern world.

Answers

Answer: D) The poet feels that traditional sources of inspiration are ineffective in the modern world.

Explanation: In the given excerpt from “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” by T.S. Elliot we can see that the poet describes how he has heard the mermaids singing (he understands the sources of inspiration of traditional poetry) but he thinks that the mermaids won't sing to him, also we can see the representation of the modern world in the phrase "Till human voices wake us, and we drown" this means that the poet feels that traditional sources of inspiration are ineffective in the modern world.

The answer would be D.

What is a fallacy of reasoning?

Answers

A fallacy of reasoning (also called an informal fallacy) is when an argument is not based on on hard data or mathematical formulas, but utilizes some informal logic. We can say that the argument is unsupported. It doesn't prove that the point someone is trying to make is false, but rather it doesn't prove sufficiently that is true.
