<em>Worthwhile . </em>This is the correct option.

Worthwhile means: useful, valuable, effective and significant. The Pony Express, which was a sort of mailing service (XIX) that connected the West and the East in the U.S during the mid 1800's, was very useful and valuabe for the author. This mailing service was carried out by horses which were run by different riders. The horse riders stopped at different points and were replaced by other riders. This sytem was faster than sending mail by ship or coaches. It was also significant because the system was so effective that Lincoln's inagural speech (1861) reached California in a very short time. Therefore, the author thinks that the <em>Pony Express</em> was effectively organized ; men and horses were used to make the coasts be connected and the effort was valuable because it must have given origin to the organization of the means of communication in the U.S.

These options are not right:

-History ( This refers to a field of   study. It does not refer to an opinion. The <em>Pony Express</em> is part of the U.S History).

-Monument ( This is a noun. The writer labels the <em>Pony Express</em> with this word. There is not an opinion  in the word).

-Physical ( This is an adjective that shows the type of work that was needed. This work was physical. The description is objective. It is not reflecting the author's opinion).

      GPS aren’t all that good, in fact GPS can still get hacked since you need a 4 satellite range in order to receive signal. GPS trackers could infringe on your privacy. They can reveal private information about your whereabouts. Sometimes, this information could be used against you in court if you were up to no good. This is a small price to pay for all the above benefits and nothing to worry about if you are a law abiding citizen

     GPS can actually get a person lost, so they don’t always work. Having a smartphone or an actual GPS only gives a person an illusion of control. It is still a map, and if you can’t read a map, you cant read a map. The little blue dot may show you where your going but getting lost, taking the wrong turn, or going into the wrong street can still be a major setback.

     However, GPS trackers are a perfect navigation tool. GPS trackers have proved themselves quite useful in the cargo delivery and public service vehicle industry. Investors and cargo owners can always tell their valuable’s location, status and the exact arrival time. Including one of the most useful sources, most useful advantage of having a GPS tracker lies in the fact that the authorities can always pinpoint the tracker’s location. This will come in handy when you are trying to track your stolen car, lost cargo or loved one through their mobile device.

(Just change a few words or phrases so you won’t be accused of plagiarism)

What motivates Odysseus to tell a lie to the Cyclops?
muminat
He lied to him because he knew that the Cyclops would call his brothers, when blinded, so he said his name was "nobody" so as to have the Cyclops yell out: "Nobody has blinded me". This in turn caused his brothers to not react at all, because they thought that gods had blinded his brother, therefore he is yelling that Nobody blinded him. Let's say then that the third sentence is the only one that can fit the story.
