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.

Which scenario is an example of irony?
Anettt [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option B. A tow truck sits stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire is irony.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Irony is a rhetorical device employed by writers or speakers to present a situation where contrary results of what is expected are obtained resulting in wry humour.

A tow truck is a vehicle provided with special equipment to pull damaged , illegally parked, or immovable vehicles in need of help to be either disposed of or dragged  to a place where they  can be repaired.  It is expected to be a savior carrying immobile vehicles to their destination which is most often a repair shop.

In the given situation, the tow truck is itself not able to ply on the road and is helplessly stranded on the roadside due to a flat tyre.  It is contrary to what is expected and is consequently amusing.  This is an example of irony.
