1. which sentence from response to erik of sweden best summarizes queen elizabeth's purpose for writing the letter?

and while we perceive there from that the zeal and love of your mind towards us is not diminished, yet in part we are grieved that we cannot gratify your serene highness with the same kind of affection.

and that indeed does not happen because we doubt in any way of your love and honour, but, as often we have testified both in words and writing, that we have never yet conceived a feeling of that kind of affection towards anyone.

and we in our turn shall take care that whatever can be required for the holy preservation of friendship between princes we will always perform towards your serene highness.

we certainly think that if god ever direct our hearts to consideration of marriage we shall never accept or choose any absent husband how powerful and wealthy a prince soever.

2. which excerpts from queen elizabeth's response to parliament's request that she marry rely on a rhetorical appeal to logos to persuade her audience that even if she produced an heir it would not guarantee england’s prosperity or safety? check all that apply.

a. i give you all my hearty for the good zeal and loving care you seem to have.

b. you may well assure yourselves, my meaning is not to determine any thing.

c. i always continued in this determination, although my youth and words may seem to some hardly to agree together, yet is it most true.

d. the realm shall not remain destitute of any heir that may be a fit governour, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm.

e. for though i be never so careful of your well-doing, and mind ever so to be, yet may my issue grow out of kind, and become perhaps ungracious.

3. read the passage from sophie’s paper on response to erik of sweden.

although queen elizabeth is polite, she also seems a bit annoyed. for example, she says, "it seems strange for your serene highness to write that you understand from your brother and your ambassadors that we have entirely determined not to marry an absent husband; and that we shall give you no certain reply until we shall have seen your person.”

by including the quote, sophie is

clarifying the overall purpose of the text.
adopting a second-person point of view.
adding implicit information to her conclusion.
using textual evidence to support her inference.

1. The question concerns the relationships between Prince Erik XIV of Sweden and Queen Elizabeth I. Prince Erik wanted to marry Queen although his father was against it. They were keeping their ties with letters. The correct answer is the third option

2. In her speech, Queen Elizabeth uses the means of rhetoric. The excerpt that contains logos is given below:

The realm shall not remain destitute of any heir that may be a fit governor, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm, than such offspring as may come of me: For though I be never so careful of your well-doing, and mind ever so to be, yet may my issue grow out of kind, and become perhaps ungracious.

Therefore, the correct options are D and E.

3. The use of quote concerns the representation of an evidence. Therefore, the usage of quote is associated with the textual evidence to support the idea.

The ascension of Queen Elizabeth I to the throne of England, although legally acceptable, was not well taken either by the members of government, including Parliament, nor by her people, as it was usually believed that an unmarried woman was not stable without a husband and therefore, was a weak ruler. For this reason, and wishing to stabilize the English Crown, Parliament and other respectable nobles tried to persuade the new Queen to marry. Many suitors came, including kings and princes from other nations, but still, Queen Elizabeth refused, and gave herself the title of Virgin Queen. Given this little background, the answers to your multiple questions would be:

1. Since King Erik of Sweden was one of Queen Elizabeth´s most fervent suitors, in 1560 she sees the need to clarify to the king, through his sent emissaries, his brother and his ambassador, that she would not marry, and much less, someone who was absent from her country. Thus, the best answer to the first question would be: We certainly think that if God ever direct our hearts to consideration of marriage, we shall never accepr or choose any absent husband how powerful and wealtly a Prince soever. With this sentence, the Queen is literally ending any attempts, whether in presence, or absence, of the King, of seeking her hand in marriage.

2. Parliament was another sector of English society that was pusing the Queen to marry. However, in her letter, Queen Elizabeth makes it clear that while still remaining unmarried, she will not neglect to fulfill the expectations that have been placed upon her as ruler. That being said, she clarifies that she will meet the expected demand of her time of providing and leaving an heir for the throne to ensure continuit and stability. She uses logos, or reason, to be able to persuade Parliament that she will be a good ruler even if unmarried. Therefore, the two best options in the list would be:  D and E. In these two, Queen Elizabeth rhetorically appeals to logos, or reason, on the part of Parliament, to make them see things her way.

3. Sophie has made a statement that would require some sort of proof of the text, because it is a bold one. She states that Queen Elizabeth seems annoyed with King Erik of Sweden for what she says have been his statements regarding her, and her attitude towards a possible marriage to him. Because of the daring of the statement, Sophie uses a direct quote from the letter itself to prove that this is correct. Therefore, the best answer to the question here is: Sophie is using textual evidence to support her inference.
