Passage 1: Vote for Gordon for class president. As Gordon's best friend since third grade, I can tell you that this guy knows how to have a good time. From tree forts and cartoons to laser tag, football, and video games, I've seen firsthand that anything Gordon does becomes fun. He can even make school entertaining. Vote for Gordon. Passage 2: Vote for Gordon for class president. After serving as vice president last year, Gordon is a natural choice for our class this year. He knows how student government works, and he proved it by planning three successful dances last year — the Fall Fling, Winter Wiggle, and Spring Shindig — as well as the end-of-year field day. Gordon also convinced Principal Dapple to install a vending machine outside the gym. He'll get even better results as president. Vote for Gordon. Which statement best compares the ways that the two arguments use appeals?

A. Passage 1 appeals to ethics by talking about the speaker's friendship with Gordon, while passage 2 appeals to logic by citing facts about Gordon's accomplishments.
B. Passage 1 appeals to ethics by citing the speaker's deep knowledge of Gordon's character, while passage 2 appeals to emotion by emphasizing the audience's school spirit.
C. Passage 1 appeals to emotion by drawing on positive feelings of friendship, while passage 2 appeals to logic by listing facts without explaining why they are important.
D. Passage 1 appeals to logic by giving facts about Gordon's background, while passage 2 appeals to emotion by referencing the audience's shared experience.

Read the passage from a vindication of the rights of woman. that the society is formed in the wisest manner, whose constitution is founded on the nature of man, strikes, in the abstract, every thinking being so forcibly, that it looks like presumption to endeavour to bring forward proofs; though proof must be brought, or the strong hold of prescription will never be forced by reason; yet to urge prescription as an argument to justify the depriving men (or women) of their natural rights, is one of the absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense. does wollstonecraft maintain an objective tone in the passage? yes, because she uses objective language such as “society is formed in the wisest manner.” yes, because she uses objective language such as “it looks like presumption to endeavor.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “though proof must be brought, or the strong hold.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense.”
