Question

what text structure did the writers of the english bill of rights use to frame their argument?
○ they used sequencing to explain the events of the glorious revolution in the order they occurred.
○ they discussed the causes of the king’s removal from the throne, and then described the rights the new monarchs would protect as an effect.
○ they documented a problem with england’s taxation system and proposed a solution.
○ they described the reign of king james ii.

Explanation:

1. Analyze Option 1: The English Bill of Rights is not mainly about sequencing Glorious Revolution events. Its focus is on rights and governance after the king's removal, so this is incorrect.
2. Analyze Option 2: The English Bill of Rights was created after King James II was removed (the cause of his removal was his actions against the rights of people etc.). Then, the document outlines the rights the new monarchs (William and Mary) would protect as an effect of establishing a new governance structure. This matches the cause - effect text structure for framing their argument about rights and governance.
3. Analyze Option 3: The English Bill of Rights is not centered around the taxation system. Its main focus is on the rights of the people and the limitations on the monarchy, so this is incorrect.
4. Analyze Option 4: Describing the reign of King James II is not the main text structure of the English Bill of Rights. The document is more about the new rights and governance after his removal, so this is incorrect.

Answer:

B. They discussed the causes of the king’s removal from the throne, and then described the rights the new monarchs would protect as an effect.
