Read this excerpt: kroc's years on the road as a traveling salesman – carrying his own order forms and sample books, knocking on doors, facing each new customer alone, and having countless doors slammed in his face – no doubt influenced his view of humanity. "look, it is ridiculous to call this an industry," kroc told a reporter in 1972, dismissing any high-minded analysis of the fast food business. "this is not. this is rat eat rat, dog eat dog. i'll kill 'em, and i'm going to kill 'em before they kill me." what is the most likely reason schlosser uses a direct quotation in this excerpt from fast food nation? o a. the quote is too long and cannot be adequately paraphrased by the author. b. the quote was given to a reporter rather than to the author, eric schlosser, himself. c. the quote introduces terminology that the reader may not be familiar with o d. the quote provides memorable insight into kroc's personality and attitude.

explanation:

read this passage from the crisis. what rationale is paine using for going to war with great britain? my own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. not all the treasures of the world, so far as i believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for i think it murder; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am i to suffer it? what signifies it to me, whether he who does it is a king or a common man; my countryman or not my countryman; whether it be done by an individual villain, or an army of them? if we reason to the root of things we shall find no difference; neither can any just cause be assigned why we should punish in the one case and pardon in the other.

it is waged war against an army of countrymen

it would lead to independence from britain

it would be an offensive war

it would be a defensive war

first of all the mood needs to be defined: it is obviously a mood of deceitful relief and serenity. why? because the cape horn is one of the most violent maritime regions of earth and although it has been left behind, it is a personification of ahab’s delirium and the fact that the end of the passage speaks about it about being “hidden” but “raving” immediately conveys the feeling the calm is not permanent but fleeting.

furthermore, the oxymoron “mild stun'sails” is the first instance of such feeling as the adjective “mild” is associated with “stunned” underscoring the fleeting nature of this “tranquil” moment. and the contrasts keep piling up, with the opposition between “dark den” and “blessed light and air” to end with the final conclusion that leaves the reader with the uneasy knowledge that this is just a reprieve.
