The correct answer is D. It is neither debatable nor specific.

Explanation:

A thesis statement is a set of words that help the author develop and argument. The thesis statement needs to be specific (show a position and reasons) and debatable (it is necessary to provide evidence).

In the case of the thesis statement "Students should be educated" this is not appropriate, because it is neither debatable nor specific. This thesis does not express the position of the author towards education or the reasons why "Students should be educated" which means it is too broad and vague. Also, because it is not specific it is not debatable as there is not any specific point that can be debated or supported.

Well I would say that it is not debatable or specific because what would that person argue in their essay? They dont have three concise points ironed out to present to the reader.

This line explains perfecty the mentality of “the grass is greener on the other side”. Because its explicitly saying "we" are wishing to be in someone else place, meaning people are never satisfied with their own situation; they always think others have it better.

"Went home and put a bullet through his head."

This phrase makes reference to the theme of dissatisfaction.

*picture* provide a summary of this excerpt. Based on this passage, how does Thoreau feel about the people who serve the state?
sergij07 [2.7K]
The Thoreau feel that the people who serve the state have the same worth as dogs or horses and that they should receive no more respect then a man of straw or a lump of dirt, so these people feel that working for the state rarely make any moral distinctions,and it also says in the paragraph that they are likely to serve the devil. So by this article we can clearly see that they are apposed to any form of serving the state.

I hope this helped :)

The correct answer is alternative one.

In the first excerpt, White has affectionate memories about the good-hearted and thoughtful performances that people executed at the time they moved forward.
