Answer:
A. The United States should not interfere with Russian relations in Chechnya.
B. The state should increase driver's registration fees to pay for the new highway overpass.
B. The success of chimps in mastering sign language, however, indicates that they have indeed learned a simple language.
Explanation:
For the first question, A is thesis for writing a persuasive essay. A persuasive essay must convince the audience to take some sort of action. Option A is the best choice because it is trying to convince the audience that interfering in Russian relations in Chechnya would not be a good idea.
The second question has a similar requirement. The thesis statement needs to be something that is actionable. Increasing the driver's registration fees is the only action that is suggested in any of the sentences.
The last answer asks about the thesis of the passage. A thesis cannot be cited text so the first option is incorrect. Option C is not specific and doesn't actually say the main idea. This is also true of option D, it only focuses on one group of scientists rather than the bigger picture.

Pretty sure you have to pick the allusion that best describes the sentence.
"Picture Perfect" is a short story about a girl, the main character and narrator, who discovers that she is better suited to be the photographer for her school´s yearbook instead of being part of the promoting team. As she sits on the first meeting of the project, the narrator wonders about her abilities and finds that she is not well-prepared, unlike her classmates. In the end, she goes to her grandmother who advices her to rather think about becoming the photographer, shows her that she herself was the photographer at her school´s yearbook and then hands her grandchild a black camera. The narrator, after several attempts, finds out that in truth she has the spirit of a photographer and at the second yearbook meeting, she is no longer scared, or unsure of what she will offer, but shows off her talents and feels rather proud of herself.
The way to know that the writer is using personal voice, and that the narrator is actually the main character and the story is hers, is through the use of the personal pronoun "I", which grammatically is the main characteristic of the personal voice. Also, as you read, you can relate the story only to the narrator, as everything is lived and experienced through her eyes and no one else´s. You cannot gather any information outside of what the narrator is experiencing as the main character in the story.
