In this excerpt from Robert Louis Stevenson's "On the Enjoyment of Unpleasant Places," which part best illustrates the descriptive technique? The hot, sweet breath of the bank that had been saturated all day long with sunshine, and now exhaled it into my face, was like the breath of
a fellow-creature. I remember that I was haunted by two lines of French verse; in some dumb way they seemed to fit my surroundings and give
expression to the contentment that was in me, and I kept repeating to myself -
"Mon coeur est un luth suspendu,
Sitôt qu'on le touche, il résonne."
I can give no reason why these lines came to me at this time, and for that very cause I repeat them here. For all I know, they may serve to
complete the impression in the mind of the reader, as they were certainly a part of it for me.
And this happened to me in the place of all others where I liked least to stay. When I think of it I grow ashamed of my own ingratitude.

Read the passage from a vindication of the rights of woman. that the society is formed in the wisest manner, whose constitution is founded on the nature of man, strikes, in the abstract, every thinking being so forcibly, that it looks like presumption to endeavour to bring forward proofs; though proof must be brought, or the strong hold of prescription will never be forced by reason; yet to urge prescription as an argument to justify the depriving men (or women) of their natural rights, is one of the absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense. does wollstonecraft maintain an objective tone in the passage? yes, because she uses objective language such as “society is formed in the wisest manner.” yes, because she uses objective language such as “it looks like presumption to endeavor.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “though proof must be brought, or the strong hold.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense.”
