The aqua lung bringing ocean exploration to new depths what is the author's purpose in writing this passage

English

<span>The purpose of the article, “The Aqua Lung:  Bringing Ocean Exploration to New Depths,” is to inform.  It is an informative article.  Like the title suggests, the aqua lung did bring undersea exploration to new depths (which is a pun, by the way), by manner of making exploration available to “ordinary people.”  The way you can determine what the purpose is in an article is by looking at the beginning first couple of paragraphs as well as the ending paragraph.  The beginning, as you know, will have the thesis (or topic), and this is where you’ll get the clues with regard to what the point of the writing is.  As you may probably also know, the ending (or conclusion) is where the thesis/topic will be reiterated.  As such, you’ll be looking for what is said twice—at the beginning and at the end.  In the beginning, it is noted that the Aqua Lung “made it possible for more people to explore the ocean’s depths.” And, in the ending it states that “Cousteau’s greatest legacy as a conservationist may have been giving ordinary people the tools needed to view the wonders of the ocean firsthand.” </span>

Step2247 [10]

Answer:For close to 50 years, educators and politicians from classrooms to the Oval Office have stressed the importance of graduating students who are skilled critical thinkers.

Content that once had to be drilled into students’ heads is now just a phone swipe away, but the ability to make sense of that information requires thinking critically about it. Similarly, our democracy is today imperiled not by lack of access to data and opinions about the most important issues of the day, but rather by our inability to sort the true from the fake (or hopelessly biased).

We have certainly made progress in critical-thinking education over the last five decades. Courses dedicated to the subject can be found in the catalogs of many colleges and universities, while the latest generation of K-12 academic standards emphasize not just content but also the skills necessary to think critically about content taught in English, math, science and social studies classes.
