Which persuasive technique is present in this excerpt from a speech?


It is common knowledge that America consumes a lot of resources compared to the rest of the world. We need more gasoline, eat bigger meals, and drink from larger size cups. We waste a lot of what we purchase, and we buy many things we didn't need in the first place. In addition to a lack of public transportation, an abundance of plastic bags, and overuse of disposables, we have managed to do more than a nation's share in global warming.


Only the other day, while I was shopping in an outlet mall, I noticed that the store's doors were wide open while the air conditioning blasted and kept the place icy cold. The sales clerks cared more about the view outside than the tremendous amount of energy they were wasting. I wondered why the customers weren't bothered by the waste of energy. Why shouldn't we start thinking about alternative sources of energy? I asked the clothing store manager to close the doors. I also started to make a list of what I really needed, and I never shopped when I was very hungry.

How do symbols represent ideas in literary works?

A symbol can be interpreted in many ways, so it helps authors express complex ideas.

The same symbol is used over and over again to represent the same idea, so readers quickly understand the symbol.

Symbols turn abstract concepts into concrete objects so that readers can connect with the ideas more strongly.

Each culture has its own distinctive symbols, so readers from that culture can readily understand the work's ideas.

B The competition between Cope and Marsh pushed each man to make amazing discoveries. C Cope and Marsh's mistakes destroyed their credibility as paleontologists. D Cope and Marsh would have discovered even more dinosaur bones if they had worked together.

Answers

Answer:

B. The competition between Cope and Marsh pushed each man to make amazing discoveries.

Explanation:

A paleontologist refers to an expert (individual) who is saddled with the responsibility of studying the various forms of life that were in existence during geologic or prehistoric ages through the use of fossils.

We know that influence is a function of how much power a person has to affect, control or manipulate another person so as to cause a change in the person's action or activity.

Hence, the sentence which best describes how two paleontologists influenced each other is; the competition between Cope and Marsh pushed each man to make amazing discoveries.

by Trey Loker

A flower buds its petals of pink
It rises to the sky
Glowing and coloring the grass,
a light wind may pass,
and cool water flows to drink


A flower buds its petals of yellow
It's covered by trash
Coughing and wheezing a lot,
the wind cannot stop,
the trash from killing this fellow


A flower buds its poials of blue
Is crushed by cans
Without provocation
its freed from the suffocation
by a woman who loves so true

A)The story involves a group of people working together towards a common goal
