Savatey [412]

Answer:

Option number three is correct.

Explanation:

Edgar Guest is an American poet, famous for his optimistic tone. He was also called People's Poet.

A hero is defined as someone who is valuable or appreciated by his achievements or good qualities or by his courage.

In the third option, the speaker contrasts two different groups: first one is described in line 3 of the excerpt ("Are you one...?") and the characteristics of the other group are defined in the other lines (The things that...) and the final line adds emphasis by asking a direct question. The semantic field is also related in the statement and in the excerpt (uncharted, new discoveries, path and undone things, lead, way), making the third option the right answer.

What is debate?

A debate is a procedure that involves formal dialogue about a certain issue, sometimes with the participation of a moderator and an audience. Arguments are presented during a discussion for frequently divergent points of view.

In the past, debates have taken place in public gatherings, educational settings, debating rooms, coffee shops, contests, and legislative assemblies.

A debate has also been held for instructional and social objectives, typically in connection with academic institutions and debating organizations. These arguments place a strong focus on logical coherence, factual precision, and audience appeal.

Rules permitting participants to discuss and choose the debate's structure are also included in contemporary forms of competitive debate (how the debate will be judged).
