Answer:

Proper synonyms for lying down include  to sprawl, to lay back, and to lie. To name a few.

Explanation:

In the particular case of the example provided "Bruce was fired for lying down on the job" it could be said that a proper synonym for lying down could include to sprawl, to lay back, and to lie. Resulting in: Bruce was fired for<em> lying down</em> on the job or Bruce was fired for <em>lying back</em> on the job.

Which thesis is the strongest choice for an essay explaining the writer's vision of a utopia?
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The answer is your first option: <u>If a true utopia can ever be achieved, everyone must share the same vision and be willing to act for the common </u>

<u>good.</u>

Explanation:

The second and third option aren't the strongest choice for an essay explaining the writer's vision of a utopia, as the third option explains how he prepared his text and well the answer is:<em> by presenting many characteristics, </em>this doesn't give us any writer's vision at all, only a structure of his text. The second option, although it is indeed presenting the writer's vision, it isn't the strongest, for it only presents three limited and specified reasons; whereas, the first option, presents two visions, but they're not limited as sharing the same vision implies many things, acting for the common good too, for instance; giving shelter to the less fortunates in cold weather, feeding people on Thanksgiving, donating clothes, etc, etc... So this is the reson why this is the strongest choice.
