He modeled Velcro after burrs that he found in nature. He learned that nylon was the best material to use to make Velcro. George de Mestral was an engineer from Switzerland who had a curious mind. After studying burrs stuck to his dog’s fur, Mestral decided to create a new kind of fastener. Velcro, the product that Mestral created, is a hook-and-loop fastener that works the same way burrs work in nature. George de Mestral was the engineer who invented Velcro, a type of hook-and-loop fastener modeled after burrs Mestral found stuck to his dog’s fur. Mestral overcame many obstacles as he worked to produce Velcro. Today, Velcro is commonly used to fasten a variety of materials. A curious man, George de Mestral noticed one day that burrs were stuck to his dog’s fur. He looked at these burrs under a microscope and saw that tiny hooks on the burrs allowed them to latch onto the fur. Mestral went on to invent Velcro, which uses hooks similar to those found on the burrs.

Answers

In “I Have a Dream”, Martin Luther King Jr. extensively uses repetitions, metaphors, and allusions. Other rhetorical devices that you should note are antithesis, direct address, and enumeration.

Answer:

From the context given, I believe it's a rhetorical question.

Explanation:

"What's he that wishes so?" may be used to add some sort of dramatic effect, as he is not directly asking anybody in particular. There is no source of repetition, both sentences have no source of parellelism (no similar grammatical structure or pattern) or any restatement.

Which of the following argument uses connotative words to evoke the saddest feeling?

A. There are thousands of shelter dogs in the United States that need to be adopted.

B. If you do not adopt these small, scared shelter dogs, we aren't sure what the future holds.

C. Experts say that adopting shelter dogs lowers your stress level.​

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Words like small and scared have a negative connotative meaning

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

The word "small" is closely linked to a sense of helplessness, implying that the dogs are unable to fend for themselves. The word "scared" also suggests that these small dogs are frightened and in need of help. The phrase, "we aren't sure what the future holds" is ominous and further contributes to the feeling of hopelessness. All together, the argument invokes sadness within the readers and urges them to go adopt these dogs.
