Answer:

The idea unsupported by the author's main arguments about Benjamin Franklin's accomplishments is Benjamin Franklin's Fascination with Electricity  adapted from the National Park Service  paved the way for  theories about  electricity.

Explanation:

The Statement that Benjamin Franklin was fascinated by electricity and gave a lot of his time after he retired  study its properties is true because he started studying the properties of electricity in 1746 and devoted more time to it after retiring in 1788. He conducted his famous kite experiment in June 1752. Also, the statement that he never patented any of his inventions is also true and is supported by authors arguments. Franklin's influence in the early history of the United States has led people to call him "the only President of the United States who was never President of the United States". He is largely self educated because though he attended the school he did not graduate, but continued his education through voracious reading.

37 POINTS PLZ HELP!!! Read the passage.
MArishka [77]

Answer:

To persuade readers of the literary merit of The War of the Worlds

Explanation:

The passage does not give much informational text and it does not entertain the reader. Other reasons why this is a persuasive text is because of keywords such as, It captivated readers nearly one hundred years ago, and it is still relevant and spellbinding, It has every element of great science fiction: suspense, intrigue, and Martians, and No science fiction anthology is complete without an excerpt from The War of the Worlds by H. G. Wells.  This is supposed to pull the reader in by telling the reader all the great benefits of reading the book has.
