Answer 1

Answer:

The answers are B, C, E.

Explanation:

To write an academic essay about any topic it's important to use reliable sources.

Letter A is incorrect because a free encyclopedia can be written by anyone, even though the person/group of people doesn't have a trustworthy source. Due to this characteristics, letter D is also incorrect.

On the other hand, the Library of Congress in Washington is a reliable source because the reader knows the author and many different sources. Letter C is also correct because Jefferson himself wrote the letters as well as his own autobiography. Due to this, B, C, E are the correct answers.
