Answer:As for this city's government, I don't want to say much, except that it is a shame – a shame; but if I should live twenty-five years longer . . . I think I'll see women handle the ballot.

Explanation:Read the excerpt from “Votes for Women,” a speech by Mark Twain from 1901.

As for this city's government, I don't want to say much, except that it is a shame – a shame; but if I should live twenty-five years longer – and there is no reason why I shouldn't – I think I'll see women handle the ballot.

I believe that  the last option (As for this city's government, I don't want to say much, except that it is a shame – a shame; but if I should live twenty-five years longer . . . I think I'll see women handle the ballot.)  correctly uses ellipsis to shorten Mark  Twain’s words from the speech “Votes for Women”. I think that this answer looks most sensible and shows the  main idea of the speech in the right form. The answer to your question is D. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.

babymother [125]

Answer:

Dear diary,

Today I saw a horrible quarrel between my peers.

It was over something as little as a dollar, the two very young boys made a bet, the bet was to see who could spit further away, the reward for spitting the furthest was one dollar. After the game was over and the winner was declared the little boy, he then presented the prize 4 quarters, the other child who had a lack of education was expecting a $1 bill not four quarters, the angry young boy then assaulted the other child who presented the 4 quarters. A ghastly fight then broke out.

Explanation:

To avoid this conflict in the future children should come to an agreement and should be made to get an education.

Answer:

A) If you are gonna use this or someone elses work that will be plagirisim sorry but you could litteraly get arrested for that so this is just a platform. Sorry again.

B) Here is a platform for you not to copy or plagirise

Platform:

So an argumentative essay must have good and solid words so like: To show...that before you become successful you have to work your but off.

So in the essay you should have reasoning behind everything talk about:

-How hard you need to work to get successful

-How to reach goals

So for this specfic essay you need to show what it takes to be succsessful you have to think about examples so you have to show all of this in your writing:https://nsargumentwritingblog.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/transition-words-useful-for-argument-writing/

Now for the platform: ...=Example

What it takes to be succsessful.

You have goals in life like... (Come up with a goal in life that will be very succsessful) and you want them to be succsessful but sometimes you don't have what it takes, so in this essay you will learn about what it takes to be succsessful. (You should add more but this is just an idea)

Your goals are very important to you and you want to succeed but you need to work hard in the process...(Come up with an example that shows the work progress and shows hard work pays off) so hard work is just part of the process of being succsessful. (Add more if you need too) Part of the process of being succsessful is being ready to keep working and not just settle in one place you need to keep up the good work and not just rest on your lorals for example when dancers win first place in a competion and then practice a lot more they will keep winning but if they don't practice they won't place and won't win...(Or come up with an example that shows that)...(Talk some more about success)

This is what it takes to be successful and some people have what it takes and reach for the stars but some don't and fail( Elaborate on that and you'll have a conclusion)

That's all for me
