Author Tim O’Brien is quoted as saying “Fiction is the lie that helps us understand the truth.” Upon reading The Things They Carried, reflect on how each story contributes individually to the truth O’Brien is trying to reveal about the world and humanity. Then, craft a thesis statement that articulates what, exactly, O’Brien believes this truth to be. Finally, create a well-developed tier list that ranks each story’s usefulness in understanding this truth about the world and humanity.

Read the excerpt from queen elizabeth's address to the troops at tilbury. let tyrants fear, i have always so behaved myself, that, under god, i have placed my chiefest strength and safeguard in the loyal hearts and good will of my subjects, and therefore i am come amongst you, as you see, at this time, not for my recreation and disport, but being resolved in the midst and heat of the battle, to live or die among you all, to lay down for my god, and for my kingdoms, and for my people, my honour, and my blood, even in the dust. which statement best describes queen elizabeth's use of rhetorical appeals in this excerpt? she relies on ethos by explaining that she has previous experience fighting in battles. she relies on pathos by providing examples of other successes she has had as a ruler. she relies on ethos by establishing that she is there for more than just recreation. she relies on pathos by using emotionally charged words to motivate the troops.
