Explanation:

First Sub - Question (About "He has" Repetition)

Using "He has" repeatedly creates a litany of grievances. It emphasizes the king's consistent negative actions, making the list of wrongdoings seem extensive and deliberate. This structure also gives a rhythmic, persuasive flow, helping to build a strong case against the king by highlighting the pattern of his unjust behavior.

Repeating strong negative verbs like "refused" and "forbidden" reinforces the idea of the king's active opposition to the colonists' well - being. These verbs highlight the king's hostile and unjust actions, making his negative behavior more prominent. It also stirs emotions, as the repeated negative actions make the colonists' situation seem more desperate and the king's rule more oppressive, thus strengthening their call for change.

Answer:

The repetitive "He has" structure is effective as it: 1. Creates a cumulative effect, emphasizing the king's consistent unjust actions (e.g., refusing assent, neglecting laws) to show a pattern of tyranny. 2. Gives a rhythmic, persuasive tone, making the colonists' case against the king more compelling by highlighting the breadth of his wrongdoings.
