In a short story, any pronoun that indicates a person or thing spoken of is given in the _______ person. A. second or third B. third C. second D. first

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: A. second or third

Example:

Every good homeowner plays their part in keeping the neighborhood clean and safe.
Antecedent: every good homeowner
Pronoun: their (which is incorrect because "every homeowner" is singular)

For singular antecedents, we should use singular pronouns. Singular pronouns include: I, he, she, it, and you. Since this refers to a second person (every homeowner), we can't use "I", "it", and "you". Hence, we can use "he" or "she" instead.

CORRECT SENTENCE: Every good homeowner plays his/her part in keeping the neighborhood clean and safe.

Which approach is not used when making an appeal to logos?a.emotional or passionate statements
b.the orderly presentation of details
c.facts or statistics
d.definite arguments

Answers

The correct answer is: A) emotional or passionate statements.

Remember that logos stands for "logic" from ancient Greece, that means it appeals to reason or logic. In literature it is a device characterized as a statement, sentence or argument used to convince or persuade the audience that uses both reason and logic, meaning it has to be based on evidence and facts. In this case the orderly presentation of facts and definite arguments makes our statements logical by following a clear line of thought; showing facts or statistics helps us support our statements giving strong evidence.

Emotional statements belong to a different literary device named phatos related to the emotional appeal.

Well, there are three types. Logos, pathos and ethos. Since a.(emotional or passionate statements) is mostly connected to pathos which makes a deep connection with the audience or reader, I'd say (a.) is the answer.
