It was his fault that he didn't really have a connection with his children and that he neglected the wife. There are many https://nowcomment.com/documents/200985?scroll_to=1874187 https://nowcomment.com/documents/200985?scroll_to=1874187 jobs that aren't stressful. But it is sad that his job took over his life and is what eventually killed him. Thu, 30 Sep 2021 10:00:06 -0400 He didn't have fun. If you're that stressed over a job then how much would you actually like it? His priority was his work, although it wasn't healthy for him. He probably wanted to prove himself through his work, but died before he completed it. https://nowcomment.com/documents/200985?scroll_to=1874181 https://nowcomment.com/documents/200985?scroll_to=1874181 Mon, 11 May 2020 15:36:19 -0400 He is using many different example to prove his point being that animals are better than humans, due to their nature which is doing only what they need to do, as humans are always trying to go above and beyond which is not necessary. https://nowcomment.com/documents/199547?scroll_to=1869967 https://nowcomment.com/documents/199547?scroll_to=1869967 Fri, 08 May 2020 12:30:49 -0400 A contrast of a human who kills what he doesn't need, and a snake who only kills what it does need. Humans are always trying to show how powerful they can be, but an anaconda(and most animals)already know how powerful they can be and has nothing to prove. https://nowcomment.com/documents/199547?scroll_to=1868828 https://nowcomment.com/documents/199547?scroll_to=1868828 Thu, 07 May 2020 17:27:28 -0400 I feel as if this is the final blow to the argument, stating that no one in the agency even knew about the phrase, he also says that coca-cola "owned" the phrase which is irony as well because it is a phrase anyone can use,its not like coca-cola patented https://nowcomment.com/documents/197911?scroll_to=1868789 https://nowcomment.com/documents/197911?scroll_to=1868789 the phrase. Thu, 07 May 2020 17:03:22 -0400 I find this as an example of Irony, I think Seaver uses it to make fun of how much Herbert and Coca-Cola are making a big deal of something so small and different. I think it's funny that such a big company is worried about one book ruining their phrase. https://nowcomment.com/documents/197911?scroll_to=1868772 https://nowcomment.com/documents/197911?scroll_to=1868772 Thu, 07 May 2020 16:56:54 -0400 She repeats "Dear brothers and sisters" as a form of pathos, to make her speech more personal. She wants the readers and listeners to know that she will help the cause, as a sister. That no one is alone, and everyone is connected. https://nowcomment.com/documents/195003?scroll_to=1861837 https://nowcomment.com/documents/195003?scroll_to=1861837 Mon, 04 May 2020 15:37:43 -0400 She refers that if a child is trying to learn but in the back of their mind they know they have a high possibility of being shot, or dying in anyway, it will extremely effect their education, therefore she addresses the person with power to change that. https://nowcomment.com/documents/195003?scroll_to=1861834 https://nowcomment.com/documents/195003?scroll_to=1861834 Mon, 04 May 2020 15:33:57 -0400 She knows that this pandemic will be well known much later on, therefore she wants her people to be known as some who were smart, and selfless while also being safe in these tragic times. https://nowcomment.com/documents/191853?scroll_to=1861802 https://nowcomment.com/documents/191853?scroll_to=1861802 Thu, 21 May 2020 11:13:11 -0400 She is acknowledging that this is a hard time, that it is frustrating. But she wants to acknowledge that essential workers are doing what they can, and that is all that can be done. https://nowcomment.com/documents/191853?scroll_to=1861781 https://nowcomment.com/documents/191853?scroll_to=1861781 Mon, 04 May 2020 15:18:39 -0400 With him using the simile of "Confined to their rooms like little children" he is trying to convey the fact that Africans are being treated as children who need direction by the parents, in this case the parents being the white government. https://nowcomment.com/documents/189663?scroll_to=1861653 https://nowcomment.com/documents/189663?scroll_to=1861653 Mon, 04 May 2020 14:29:53 -0400 Pathos is used here to compare whites and Africans, words such as "Love" "Support their families" "Wives and Children" "Feed and Clothe them" are all examples of emotion, especially because most people want the best for their own families, of every race. https://nowcomment.com/documents/189663?scroll_to=1861646 https://nowcomment.com/documents/189663?scroll_to=1861646 Mon, 04 May 2020 14:24:43 -0400 One example of how pathos is being used. Children and Women are seen as weaker, therefore if they have to be kept from these towns it shows how unsafe the conditions are, it shows how unfairly the workers are being treated compared to government officials https://nowcomment.com/documents/186954?scroll_to=1858651 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186954?scroll_to=1858651 Sun, 03 May 2020 18:31:29 -0400 When someone wishes about something they take time out of their day to do it, as if it was something they truly wanted. If wishes was replaced by "Wants" it would mean a lesser of an effort made, less thought put into such issues. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186954?scroll_to=1858639 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186954?scroll_to=1858639 Sun, 03 May 2020 18:31:29 -0400
