The letter from Samuel Johnson shown above was made as a refusal to request a woman who would like to receive sponsorship from a bishop to send her son to university.
In the Letter, Johnson explains the reasons that led him to reject this request, stating that they cannot ask the bishop he does not know, sponsorship for a boy the bishop does not know. This is because this type of sponsorship was something very big, with great economic expense. Therefore, this was not offered to strangers, but only to people with whom the sponsors had knowledge and a certain intimacy.
In this letter, Johnson makes recurring use of ethos and logos. He uses ehos, when he shows that he is rejecting the request in the most ethical and respectable way possible, and, he uses logos, when he shows that the refusal is not being made for personal reasons, but for the logic of the situation.
Finally, Johnson says that he believes that the woman's son is a brilliant boy and that it is not necessary for him to go to university to be a great man.
Answer:
Adversity: difficulty, and misfortune;
Its something that happens to all of us at the best of times and can be difficult at times but we all get over it. An example of one time i had to face adversity is when one day i had a HUGE project to turn in I worked super hard on it and double checked my answers I was sure I would get an A+. However, on the day the project was due I was so happy because I could finally turn my project in in that class and raise my low grade, Unfortunatly I forgot my project at home and both my parents were at work so no one could bring me it (my teacher at the time didnt accept late work) and I just had to deal with having a bad grade and a Z on that project. It was difficult to raise my grade but somehow I managed to do it this just shows that any of us can overpower Adversity.

Answer:
The theme of this story is ( D) Not everything is as scary as it seems
Explanation:
We human beings have filled our lives with unnecessary tensions and fears.Some of our worries are genuine but most of them are not genuine.We have our own perceptions and viewpoints regarding different things..
If instead of facing the reality we try to fear than our problems will multiply,but if we become bold and face the problems strongly than the problem automatically vanishes.Like in a story of caterpillar and a hare ,the caterpillar was trying to scare the hare by taking the possession of hare's house .Caterpillar boomed out loudly to hare that "i am the one who crush the rhinos and tramples the elephants into dust".This voice scared the hare a lot.He thought caterpillar to be a huge animal.So hare got scared to enter it's own house.But at the end hare got to know it was only a caterpillar and he was unnecessary getting scared.
Same goes with our lives,it is not as complicated as we have made it by keeping thousand of worries and fears in our mind.We must try to overcome each and every fear by facing it,rather than running away from it.This is the only key to success.
