Answer:

Explanation:

Any language you use to describe Jefferson's phrasing of the declaration must not be chosen.

The Declaration was written at get peril to those writing and signing it. They could have been hanged for treason at any time.

So you should eliminate answers that contain difficult, fanciful and sophisticated.

Difficult: get a dictionary. Look them up. Use them when the occasion is right.

Sophisticated: The Declaration was a legal document. It uses words that reflect the seriousness of George's answers. George must be made to understand that his actions have consequences.

Fanciful: I won't even bother to give a reason for not using this word.

Every American should be familiar with the Declaration. It should not be degraded by saying that the language is inappropriate. Many deaths when the war for independence began paid in blood for the warning those words presented.

The answer is the second one from the top.

C. Thomas Jefferson uses fanciful words and great arguments to make a case for American independence in the Declaration of Independence.
