<em>Worthwhile . </em>This is the correct option.
Worthwhile means: useful, valuable, effective and significant. The Pony Express, which was a sort of mailing service (XIX) that connected the West and the East in the U.S during the mid 1800's, was very useful and valuabe for the author. This mailing service was carried out by horses which were run by different riders. The horse riders stopped at different points and were replaced by other riders. This sytem was faster than sending mail by ship or coaches. It was also significant because the system was so effective that Lincoln's inagural speech (1861) reached California in a very short time. Therefore, the author thinks that the <em>Pony Express</em> was effectively organized ; men and horses were used to make the coasts be connected and the effort was valuable because it must have given origin to the organization of the means of communication in the U.S.
These options are not right:
-History ( This refers to a field of study. It does not refer to an opinion. The <em>Pony Express</em> is part of the U.S History).
-Monument ( This is a noun. The writer labels the <em>Pony Express</em> with this word. There is not an opinion in the word).
-Physical ( This is an adjective that shows the type of work that was needed. This work was physical. The description is objective. It is not reflecting the author's opinion).
It does the same for me. Probably a glitch or something
Answer:
In this passage, Willis is expressing that literature is a message from the past telling us about the lives of those before us. We are told that these messages are trying to tell us how we live and how we die based on others experiences. Willis tries to explain this through a concerned, yet passionate tone that urges us, the readers, to learn from the mistakes and the fortunes of the lives of people before us. We can only do this through literature, as it is the gateway to seeing how the world works.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia<span> is a country situated in </span>Southwest Asia<span>, the largest country of </span>Arabia<span>, bordering the </span>Persian Gulf<span> and the </span>Red Sea<span>, north of </span>Yemen<span>. Its extensive coastlines on the Persian Gulf and Red Sea provide great leverage on </span>shipping<span> (especially </span>crude oil<span>) through the Persian Gulf and </span>Suez Canal<span>. The kingdom occupies 80% of the </span>Arabian Peninsula<span>. Most of the country's boundaries with the </span>United Arab Emirates<span> (UAE), </span>Oman<span>, and the </span>Republic of Yemen<span> (formerly two separate countries: the </span>Yemen Arab Republic<span> or </span>North Yemen<span>; and the </span>People's Democratic Republic of Yemen<span> or South Yemen) are undefined, so the exact size of the country remains unknown. The Saudi government estimate is at 2,217,949 square kilometres, while other reputable estimates vary between 2,149,690 and 2,24</span><span>0,000 sq. kilometres. Less than 1% of the total area is suitable for cultivation, and in the early 1990s, population distribution varied greatly among the towns of the eastern and western coastal areas, the densely populated interior oases, and the vast, almost empty deserts.
