The correct answers are A. A vast setting, C. A heor with great strength and E. A narrative voice

Explanation:

In literature, epic poetry refers to a type of poems characterized by being narrative, include a hero that endures a long trip or faces strong enemies; depict events in a vast setting, including supernatural enemies, among others.

In the case of the excerpt from Gilgamesh some of these features can be found such as events that occur in a vast setting "At four hundred miles they stopped to eat, at a thousand miles they pitched their camp" because the story takes place in multiple places or across land; also, in this excerpt a hero with great strength is depicted as in "Gilgamesh climbed to the mountaintop" because this shows Gilgamesh is strong and brave as he is able to do a long trip. Finally, this excerpt shows a narrative voice as events are told in a similar way to those in stories or novels, which means the poem is narrative.

What does susan b anthony first state the purpose of speech after being convicted of voting
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Susan B. Anthony first stated the purpose of her speech was to prove that she "not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution, beyond the power of any state to deny."

Explanation:

Susan B. Anthony was a women's rights activist in America and a social reformer who was a pioneering figure for the women suffrage movement in America. She was convicted of unlawfully participating in the presidential elections of 1872 of which her speech was based on.

In the opening paragraph of her speech, Susan B. Anthony stated that her aim was to prove that she did not do anything wrong in participating in the election. She stated that she had been <em>"indict[ed] for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote"</em>. She then proceeded to state that her main aim for giving this speech was to prove that she <em>"not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution, beyond the power of any state to deny."</em>

Which sentence is an example of an effective thesis statement for an argument about cancer funding?
yawa3891 [41]

The best example of a thesis statement is the following: "Funding for breast cancer should remain higher than the funding of other cancers because much of the funding is privately raised, the resulting research has proven beneficial for advancing the treatment of other cancers, and public support will demand the maintenance of current funding" (C).

A good thesis statement should be one sentence containing clearly:

  • the <u>main idea of the essay or paper</u>;
  • the <u>conclusion</u> you will be reaching as an answer to this question;
  • and, potentially, a summary of the <u>thread of ideas you will be developing</u> to come to this conclusion.

In statement C, the thesis is expressed directly and the author explains why this argument is important: current levels of research about breast cancer funding should at least be maintained, and prioritized over other forms of cancer, because this specific research helps us learn more about other cancers and how to treat them.

The author also adds an element which will appear in the development of ideas (the main body of the paper): the fact that the public opinion supports current breast cancer research funding levels.
