Which lines from the text most clearly suggest the narrator is ambitious? When I was thirteen years of age we all went on a part

y of pleasure to the baths near Thonon; the inclemency of the weather obliged us to remain a day confined to the inn. I read and studied the wild fancies of these writers with delight; they appeared to me treasures known to few besides myself. I have described myself as always having been imbued with a fervent longing to penetrate the secrets of nature. Wealth was an inferior object, but what glory would attend the discovery if I could banish disease from the human frame and render man invulnerable to any but a violent death!

Gnesinka [82]
One activity that I don’t like doing is public speaking. When public speaking I feel as there is no time for breaks. When writing a test u can stop for a moment and breathe, but speaking publicly doesn’t give you that option. I can’t even express myself to the best of my ability because of how much stress and pressure I get while publicity speaking

How does the author address a<br> conflicting point of view?
Fantom [35]

People who disagree with the subjective viewpoint of an author also have a conflicting viewpoint. When an author writes an informational text, he or she must first communicate to the reader his or her purpose in writing the text. Some authors state their viewpoint and purpose very clearly.

HELP ME ASAP
Flura [38]

I believe that your correct answer would be "This sentence shows Elion's determination and commitment to learn."

The reason why I say this is because Elion wanted to be a "biochemistry". But she could not because of her requirement's are not that great. She took many classes and so on and still could not qualify.She needed to learn to have determination.she didn't earn a doctorate so the 1st sentence is false,

she didn't get denied going to any schools so the 3rd one is also false.

she earned her degree at the first college so the 4th one is also false.

the correct answer should be:

This sentence shows Elion's determination and commitment to learn.
