6 0

Given that we don't know exactly which part of speech is italicized, I will just let you know what each of these words are.

Neither - a conjunction; together with nor, these are called correlative conjunctions because they denote matters of equal importance

John - a noun; a proper noun, to be more precise - they denote names

nor - like neither, it is a conjunction, used to connect parts of sentences

his - a pronoun; possessive pronoun, to be more precise, because it denotes that the sister 'belongs' to John

sister - a noun; a common noun, to be more precise

can - a verb; a modal verb, to be more precise

drive - a verb; denotes action being performed

to - a preposition; denotes place

the - an article, a definite article, to be more precise; a and an are indefinite

party - a noun; a common/abstract noun, to be more precise

Answer:

B.Gallaudet University should appoint a person who is deaf as its next president.

Explanation:

The author's thesis is best summarized in option B. The first evidence where the author claims that a deaf person should be the president of Gallaudet University is when he mentions that disabled people have the right to integration and involvement in society.

The second piece of evidence that supports the thesis is when the author says, "It [Gallaudet University] is held in the highest regard by deaf people throughout the United States and the world." Claiming that it should be an example for the nation and the world that the president of such a prestigious university has a disability. The last piece of evidence that supports his thesis is in the fifth paragraph "Gallaudet has a responsibility to set an example and thus to appoint a President who is not only highly qualified but who is also deaf."
