What is the claim in the text “Zoos Connect Us to the Natural World.” by Michael Hutchins?

English

The claim of a piece of writing is essentially the same as its thesis.  The thesis, as such, will generally be presented in the first paragraph (if not the first few lines) of the text.  When we look at the article, thus, the first paragraph mentions two things:  a gorilla named Little Joe (the hook/attention getter) and that zoos do a good job at nurturing their animals.  Readers can be safe to assume that the article will cover how zoos do a good job at nurturing because of how the last sentence within the introductory paragraph begins with “But less well covered was the very real success…”  As such, the claim of this piece is that zoos succeed at nurturing the animals that live within their walls.  Again, it’s important to remember how, generally, the thesis turns out to be the claim.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Mr. Wolfshiem

Explanation:

The was extracted from The Great Gatsby a Novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Nick and Gatsby saw Mr. Wolfshiem

Mr. Wolfshiem decided to leave Nick and Gatsby alone to talk after he (Mr. Wolfshiem) finished his lunch.

Though, Gatsby told him not to be in haste (to leave), Mr. Wolfshiem declined.

What Mr. Wolfshiem meant by being "from a different generation" is that, he was much older that Nick and Gatsby (he later on stated this, when he said he was 50 years old)

Mr. Wolfshiem appreciated that he was invited to lunch and he also made it known that he didn't really care to impose on Gatsby's chat with Nick about their discussion
