Answer:

A). However, the most successful way of combating smallpox before the discovery of vaccination was inoculation.

Explanation:

Central claim is elucidated as the key idea or argument that functions to unify the work in a single coherent thought.

The first option states the controlling idea of the given excerpt as it dominates the entire passage. It conveys the main idea of 'inoculation being one of the most successful ways to combat smallpox prior to the discovery of vaccination' to the reader which serves the key purpose of the author('to inform them about the treatment of smallpox before the discovery of vaccination'). It is the <u>central claim of the author that unifies the various ideas of the excerpt together in a unified thought</u>. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Read the question and answer the question that follows:
Igoryamba

"There is NOTHING MORE DISTRESSING to every good patriot, to every good American, than the hard, scoffing spirit which treats the ALLEGATION of dishonesty in a public man as a cause for laughter. " - really good line imo

My best guess would be answer C.

My reasoning is the words used and the meaning behind them, without the need  of being emboldened " nothing more distressing " is a powerful a way you can distinguish something to be distressing. The speaker/author is speaking powerfully; anent? I believe the speaker is having issues with how indifferent the public is reacting when a person of government has been dishonest (or when a person of government is accused of being dishonest). He says in fact that the "scoffing spirit" among people that take these allegations lightly, is to him, the most distressing event.

Therefore my best guess would be that this speaker is speaking with criticism towards those willing to hear.

A first-person narrative refers to a mode of storytelling whereby the storyteller recounts events fmthatnhas occured from their own point of view and thus use frst person like "I, our, or us".

In this case, the piece of information that could probably only come from Rosa Parks’s first-person narration of the story is that Rosa Parks asked a few people if they were willing to boycott the buses. This can be depicted where it was written that "I also remember asking a few people if they would be willing to stay off the buses... "
