consider the purpose of these two excerpts, and then compare their structure and tone. how do these elements differ in the two excerpts? cite evidence from the text to support your response.

The first excerpt states that basically when one is suffering or in pain, that "Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States" Meaning that the representatives will annihilate all links to any political connections and we shall be free.

The second excerpt states that in krder to "create a more perfect union" they will establish justice and defense and secure the safety of their citizens, similar to the first excerpt.

The two differ because the first excerpt is longer, and well informed, and has a variety of words and is highly detailed, while the second excerpt is shorter and less detailed. The tone of the two are ensuring and honest, as they both state that they want to free and protect the citizens.

Both of these excerpts come from extremely important documents in American history. The Declaration of Independence is the document responsible for our autonomy and independence. On the other hand, the Constitution is the document that ensures that the rule of law is respected in the country.

In the first excerpt, the purpose is to declare the colonists' intentions to be independent. This can be seen in the phrase "That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States." It also attempts to give the reasons why the colonies want to achieve this independence. The tone of this text is one of indignation and determination. On the other hand, in the second excerpt, the purpose is to explain why the Constitution should exist. The author summarizes the reasons by saying that the Constitution has as purpose to "form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity." The tone of the Constitution is a positive and formal one.

a. the scene is structured as a dialogue between two characters in their own informal language.

different strategies reach different people based on their ability to understand the material. (from personal experience) when writing an argumentative essay write explaining the subject as though your audience never heard of it before and it is just being introduced, then explain why other people hate it also, afterward you would explain why that would be wrong. i hope that : )
