Passage 1: Vote for Gordon for class president. As Gordon's best friend since third grade, I can tell you that this guy knows how to have a good time. From tree forts and cartoons to laser tag, football, and video games, I've seen firsthand that anything Gordon does becomes fun. He can even make school entertaining. Vote for Gordon. Passage 2: Vote for Gordon for class president. After serving as vice president last year, Gordon is a natural choice for our class this year. He knows how student government works, and he proved it by planning three successful dances last year — the Fall Fling, Winter Wiggle, and Spring Shindig — as well as the end-of-year field day. Gordon also convinced Principal Dapple to install a vending machine outside the gym. He'll get even better results as president. Vote for Gordon. Which statement best compares the ways that the two arguments use appeals?

A. Passage 1 appeals to ethics by talking about the speaker's friendship with Gordon, while passage 2 appeals to logic by citing facts about Gordon's accomplishments.
B. Passage 1 appeals to ethics by citing the speaker's deep knowledge of Gordon's character, while passage 2 appeals to emotion by emphasizing the audience's school spirit.
C. Passage 1 appeals to emotion by drawing on positive feelings of friendship, while passage 2 appeals to logic by listing facts without explaining why they are important.
D. Passage 1 appeals to logic by giving facts about Gordon's background, while passage 2 appeals to emotion by referencing the audience's shared experience.

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
