ions.
"The Iron Worm squeaks, groans, and clanks—black tankers, rust-colored boxcars, and gray hoppers winding north on a single track that parallels the Pacific coast."
"Enrique's palms burn when he holds on to the hopper. He risks riding no-hands. Finally, he strips off his shirt and sits on it."
"Enrique's head throbs. The sun reflects off the metal. It stings his eyes, and his skin tingles. It drains the little energy he has left."
"About two hundred street gangsters in Chiapas share the rolling criminal enterprise. Father Flor María Rigoni, the priest at the Albergue Belén migrant shelter, counts nineteen groups."
"'We ask for money to take people to the U.S. on top of our trains,' says Jorge Mauricio Mendoza Pineda, twenty-four, describing what he and his Mara Salvatrucha gang do in Chiapas."

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

A. Sewing can be a time-consuming task.

Explanation:

Time-consuming means something that takes a lot of time to do, the only answer choice that makes sense is A. If John finished his homework in 10 minutes, it could not have been time-consuming. A clock is an inanimate object, it cannot be time-consuming, if she has a party to get to, she probably wouldn't want to have homework that takes time to do.

"But it's only a big pencil," the Humbug objected, tapping it with his cane. "True enough," agreed the Mathemagician, "but once
Ivenika [448]

Since there are no options to this question, nor have I been able to find any options online, I'll just answer with an interpretation of the excerpt.

Answer:

The theme represented by this line is that if you are an educated person, there is nothing you cannot do. Education is the secret to achieving anything.

Explanation:

<u>In "The Phantom Tollbooth", the pencil is called "a magic staff". Its true magic relies on the person's capacity to use it. If you know Math, if you know languages, if you know any other subject that you like, you can work wonders with a pencil. It is a simple object that can bring to life your ideas, which can even change the world. </u>That is what the Mathemagician reveals as the dialog progresses:

<em>"But it's only a big pencil," the Humbug objected, tapping at it with his cane. </em>

<em>"True enough," agreed the Mathemagician; "but once you learn to use it, there's no end to what you can do." </em>

<em>"Can you make things disappear?" asked Milo excitedly. </em>

<em>"Why, certainly," he said, striding over to the easel. "Just step a little closer and watch carefully." </em>

<em>After demonstrating that there was nothing up his sleeves, in his hat, or behind his back, he wrote quickly: </em>

<em>4 + 9 − 2 × 16 + 1 ÷ 3 × 6 − 67 + 8 × 2 − 3 + 26 − 1 ÷ 34 + 3 ÷ 7 + 2 − 5 = </em>

<em>Then he looked up expectantly. "Seventeen!" shouted the bug, who always managed to be first with the wrong answer. </em>

<em>"It all comes to zero," corrected Milo. </em>

<em>"Precisely," said the Mathemagician, making a very theatrical bow, and the entire line of numbers vanished before their eyes. </em>

Answer:

A thesis statement is a declarative sentence that defines the paper's point of view. This claim should be detailed as well as debatable. The thesis statement should often be at the conclusion of the first paragraph of your article. This thesis will be supported by the rest of your article.

It could include personal opinions in a way, but It needs to be thoroughly backed up enought ot prove your point to be true.

Example:

Cats are the best pet.

That can be an opinion, but if I could back it up enough then it could be the thesis statement.
