The primary argument calling for space colonization is the long-term survival of human civilization and terrestrial life. By developing alternative locations off Earth, the planet's species, including humans, could live on in the event of natural or human-made disasters on our own planet. As stated by the text, “It is conceivable that some great unexpected mass of matter should presently rush upon us out of space, whirl sun and planets aside like dead leaves before the breeze, and collide with, and utterly destroy every spark of life upon this earth...some new disease that will destroy not 10 or 15 or 20 percent of the earth's inhabitants as pestilences have done in the past, but 100 percent, and so, end our race. And finally there is the reasonable certainty that this sun of ours must someday radiate itself toward extinction.” It is very likely that all life on Earth would cease to exist due to mass extinction from a disease or radiation. In order to prevent this, space colonization would be necessary if we were to want to continue human life and other organisms.
Explanation:
Thomas uses the ethical appeal towards how a parent should behave, "if there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace". He aims to give the public a sense of duty, that their young ones would not see struggle. He persuaded the American colonists to defend their Continent by convincing them that they are entitled to a life of freedom and happiness, and that "America will never be happy 'till she gets clear of foreign dominion" meaning that their life and happiness depends on their victory against the British.
Answer:
When a fight nearly broke out between John McNab and Mars Bar, Maniac stepped in and simply led Mars Bar away from the McNab home.
Explanation:
Maniac was instrumental in bringing Mars Bar to the McNab's home for the birthday party. But Mars Bar was uncomfortable being in a white home and the McNab family were uncomfortable having a black in their home. When the McNab boys played the game "blacks and whites", it made Mars Bar very uncomfortable.
Maniac's purpose of inviting Mars Bar to the birthday party was to teach Mars Bar about the white people and to teach the white about the blacks. But it wasn't actualized.
"Maniac Magee" is a story by American author Jerry Spinelli. The story's themes center on racism and inequality. It tells the story of an orphan boy who was looking for an abode and a home in the fictional town of Two Mills. Two Mills is a town which was torn between the East and West, blacks and whites.
