Answer: I have a better suggestion: Let's improve the zoo!

Explanation:

An argument is the main point being stressed by the author, and it is usually supported by a claim, a report or evidence. The main argument can be located anywhere in the writeup.

In the given essay, the writer started with a question of what a City could do with an extra $5 million. The second sentence saw him explaining the source of the information which is the City Council budget. The next two sentences show different suggestions from different people.

The last sentence highlights his main argument which is that the $5 million dollars should be used to improve the zoo.

*Tiles Water-beetle darted in every direction over the surface of the water but could find no firm place to rest.

*Water-beetle dived to the bottom and came up with some soft mud, which began to grow and spread on every side until it became the island that we call Earth.

*Earth was afterward fastened to the sky with four cords, but no one remembers who did it.

*Tiles Water-beetle darted in every direction over the surface of the water but could find no firm place to rest.

*Earth was afterward fastened to the sky with four cords, but no one remembers who did it.

*When all was water, the animals were above in Galûñ’lati, beyond the arch; but it was very much crowded, and they wanted more room.

*Water-beetle dived to the bottom and came up with some soft mud, which began to grow and spread on every side until it became the island that we call Earth.

*The animals wondered what was below the water, and at last Dâyuni’si, "Beaver’s Grandchild," the little Water-Beetle, offered to go and see if it could learn.

The legend of "How the World Was Made" is a Cherokee tale that is part of the book "Myths and Legends of the Great Plains" by Katharine Berry Judson that tells the theory of creation according to the traditions and beliefs of this ancient culture and it is the same tale that they pass from one generation to the next one.
