Question

what other rhetorical devices of construction does the author use to create emotion?
strong images and figurative language
all of these
a string of questions
repetition

1. choose the best answer using the historical criticism by stark.

which action is not one that the rebels were doing to persuade the loyalists?
threatening them with death
killing them
applying a sticky substance and feathers
not giving them their rights as citizens

Explanation:

Question 18

To determine the rhetorical devices for emotion, we analyze each option. Strong images/figurative language, a string of questions, and repetition are all rhetorical devices that create emotion. So "all of these" is correct as it includes all valid devices.

We evaluate each action. Threatening with death, killing, and applying sticky substance/feathers are aggressive or persuasive actions. Not giving rights as citizens is about denying rights, not a direct persuasive action to convince loyalists (it's more of a denial of rights, not a persuasion attempt). So "not giving them their rights as citizens" is the action not used for persuasion.

Answer:

B. all of these (assuming the option "all of these" is labeled as B; if the original option numbering is different, adjust accordingly, e.g., if "all of these" is the second option, it would be "2. all of these")
