Answer:

Had argued

Explanation:

The past participle is a form of a verb that usually ends in "-ed" (when they're regulars) and that can be used as adjectives, to form the passive voice (For example, she was carried by her father) or to form perfect verb tenses such as the future perfect, the present perfect and the past perfect, the latter being formed with the auxiliary verb <em>have</em> in past: <em>had</em> + the past participle of the main verb.

So, since the sentence provided is not in passive voice (It is not focusing on the recipient of the main action), and the blank is not missing an adjective but a verb, the blank should contain the past participle of "argue" that forms a perfect verb tense, more specifically, the past perfect: "had argued."

Tim is writing an essay on the Chicago fire of 1871, and his thesis statement is below.
Setler [38]

Answer:

 The correct answer is option D.“When they heard Box 342 rung, however, they assumed the fire was out of their territory and unhitched the horses. Only two fire companies were not fooled by the misleading alarm.”

Explanation:

The thesis statement expresses a position on the subject of the text and that answers the question that, as an author, you work on your writing. In other words, it is the position that is defended through arguments to persuade or convince the reader.

The argumentative body constitutes the argumentation itself: the contribution of all kinds of reasoning that allows the author to convince the addressee. These reasons that the author uses to support his thesis are called arguments and with them the author intends to cause the receiver to adhere in some way to his thesis. This adherence can be sometimes intellectual and other times sentimental. Thus, we distinguish rational arguments and affective arguments.

In this case, the option that best supports the thesis statement is option D.
