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

English

faust18 [17]2 years ago
3 0

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.

Part A

"They flash upon that inward eye / Which is the bliss of solitude,"

the "inward eye" meaning they bring bliss to the heart.

"I gazed--and gazed--but little thought / What wealth the show to me had brought:"

He was unaware at first that just looking at the flowers would bring so much joy. 

Part B

The image creates an admiring tone that helps readers understand why the speaker seeks to recall the happiness he felt.

The author compares stars shining on the Milky Way to seeing the beautiful flowers, because they both created a long lasting joyful experience for him.

Now that you’ve read and listened to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s "Four Freedoms," compare the experience of listening to a speech to
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Your answer should include these points:

Content: Discuss how Roosevelt uses both logical and emotional appeals. Note how he first explains why some Americans favor “appeasement” tactics, but these actions are both morally and practically wrong: “We are soft-hearted but we cannot afford to be soft-headed.” He also explains how staying out of the war is no guarantee that the United States will remain safe from German aggression, and he cites the examples of Norway, Belgium, and the Netherlands.

Emotional appeals: Note how Roosevelt invokes the four freedoms. He explains how the United States must go to war to protect Americans and people around the world.

Rhetoric: Roosevelt uses repetition effectively throughout his speech:

Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

By repeating the word our, Roosevelt emphasizes that the war is a joint effort that will require “personal sacrifices” from every American.

Parallel structure: The repetition of the phrase “not satisfied” emphasizes that Roosevelt, leaders in the armed forces, and the American people are united in the idea that more must be done to increase the production of armaments.

Tone: Note how Roosevelt varies his tone across the speech. For example, he raises his voice when he says the phrase “everywhere in the world” to stress that Americans will be making sacrifices not only for their own countrymen, but for the world.

Pace: Note how Roosevelt pauses before important words such as healthy, peace time, and victory at the end of the speech to emphasize these ideas.
