Read the excerpt from The Crisis, No. 1, and then answer the question.

“I call not upon a few, but upon all: not on this state or that state, but on every state; up and help us; lay our shoulders to the wheel; better have too much force than too little; when so great an object is at stake!”

A. main idea-supporting detail

C. point-counterpoint
D. chronological order

I would say the correct answer is C. point-counterpoint. The author introduces an idea and immediately contrasts it, according to the formula: not A, but B, not C, but D, better to do E than F (where A and B are mutual opposites, as well as C and D, and E and F). Thereby he accentuates the B option, creating a dramatic effect.
