Read the passage from eleanor roosevelt’s speech on the adoption of the universal declaration of human rights.

in a recent speech in canada, gladstone murray said:

the central fact is that man is fundamentally a moral being, that the light we have is imperfect does not matter so long as we are always trying to improve it. . we are equal in sharing the moral freedom that distinguishes us as men. man’s status makes each individual an end in himself. no man is by nature simply the servant of the state or of another man. . the ideal and fact of freedom—and not technology—are the true distinguishing marks of our civilization.

which rhetorical device does gladstone murray use in this passage?

parallelism
historical allusions
contrast
ethos

The rhetorical device which is used by the Gladstone Murray used in the passage is the contrast.

Explanation:

This is because the central fact is used fundamentally for the different men. There have been improvisations by different men. There are different persons which gets distinguished from other man. Two men are compared on the basis of their different nature and the varied facts. There are certain basis and the distinguishing facts of the civilisation which is used for contrasting.

the correct answer is dilapidated.

the maori creation myth tells the story how humans were born and how nature in their birth by sacrificing themselves. according to this creation myth, the earth and heaven were once joined as ranhinui.   papatuanuku was the sky father and the mother ranhinui was the earth and they had many children. the children lived in the darkness and wanted to live in the light. the children separated the parents in order to live in the light. the parents continue to grieve for each other until the present day.

the haida creation myth is about a trickster named raven who stole the sun, the moon and the stars in order to bring light to his created world. he created animals, fish, trees, men, and all the creatures but they lived in darkness because of which he stole light.

based on a comparison of the myths “the maori: genealogies and origins in new zealand” and “the raven and the first men: the beginnings of the haida,” if the maori and the haida people decided to create a myth together, the importance of family will be the most likely values be expressed.

the maori and haida cultures are more similar than different because they have   important values in common. both the cultures value nature, family and sacrifice.
