The best answer is:
<span>"General Barker bustled about the house like a woman preparing Thanksgiving dinner for twenty."
Comparing General Barker, a man in one of the most masculine professions there are, and preparing for a demonstration of an incredibly powerful weapon of mass destruction, to a woman preparing for Thanksgiving Dinner is ironic in its great contrast between the subject and what he's being compared to. </span>

It would be 3, explaining how hunting is bad for the blue whales.

The first paragraph is showing how drastically their numbers have dropped from being hunted and the second paragraph is showing how more whales have been being sighted recently because of the decrease in hunting. Hopefully the population grows stronger soon.

Have a nice day!

This is the the main idea of an essay, usually expressed as a generalization that is supported with concrete evidence
valina [46]
The correct answer is thesis statement.
A thesis statement is the most important sentence in an essay - in it, you will find the main idea of the essay and why it was written in the first place. The author will briefly summarize his or her motivation and goal for writing the essay in this sentence, which is usually found at the end of the introductory paragraph.
