"then follow me, and give me audience, friends. cassius, go you into the other street, and part the numbers. those that will hear me speak, let 'em stay here; those that will follow cassius, go with him; and public reasons shall be rendered of caesar's death."
what phrase from this portion of the play best demonstrates brutus' use of ethos?
a. cassius, go you into the other street
b. those that will hear me speak, let 'em stay here
c. and public reasons shall be rendered
d. of caesar's death

The correct answer is letter C. And public reasons shall be rendered

Explanation:

Brutus’ use of ethos means: Brutus credibility; thus, the first line cannot be possible as he is giving an order; the second option can’t either be possible, as he, as well, is giving the order of “letting the people who wish to listen to him” stay. Letter D, doesn’t give you much information as to what exactly ‘Of Caesar’s death’. Letter C, being the correct option; gives you the idea that he is giving in return or providing public reasons, he is ‘giving his word’ and the use of shall in this line, indicates determination and consequently, credibility.

normally working animals are domesticated and ruled by a master, a domesticator (tamer), to perform basic and important functions on a farm, for example. the value used in this context is animal labor in exchange for food. it is not so much a contrast to the story told by napoleon and the pigs, since the animals of that particular farm also performed functions on the farm through domestication. the only thing is that in this case, who rules them is a pig, also an animal, but very respected, to whom the other animals lent him submission. that's about a strong relationship of dependency between animal and owner.

this answer to this question is c. allegory

why?

stories with allegories have a hidden symbolic meaning with a theme. the hidden meaning can be political, or other real life problems.
