The correct answer is A) both Davis and Kneip wrote about Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States.

<em>The statement that is not an example of effective thesis for an essay comparing two texts about the life of Abraham Lincoln is: Both Davis and Kneip wrote about Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States. </em>

A well-written statement for a thesis must be specific, clear, direct, not ambiguous like: “Both Davis and Kneip, wrote about Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States.” This is a general statement, an ambiguous one. It sounds more like the title of a note.

A good thesis title is specific and establishes the central focus of the work. It is also engaging and argumentative. By reading the statement, the reader can identify the purpose or the aim of the essay.

<span>The poem was written for Thomas's dying father. It has no title other than its first line, "Do not go gentle into that good night", a line which appears as a refrain throughout. The poem's other refrain is "Rage, rage against the dying of the light".</span>

jolli1 [7]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Paraphrase the passage below from The Odyssey: A Prodigious Man Slept in this cave alone and took his flocks to graze afield remote from all companions  knowing none but savage ways a brute so huge he seemed no man at all of those who eat good wheaten bread but he seemed rather a shaggy mountian reared in solitude.

Answer:

It was common for a large, crude and un-civilized man to sleep alone in a cave after taking his livestock to eat the vegetation they needed, away from people. The man did not know how to live in a civilized way, he did not know how to eat properly and he did not even behave like a human being, he did not even look like one, he looked more like a wild, furry and little sociable animal.

Explanation:

A paraphrase happens when you take a passage written by an author and rewrite it by modifying the words, but maintaining the same meaning as the passage, as shown above, where a paraphrase was made of the description of Cyclops Polyphemus, from the original text of " Odyssey".

It is important to note that the paraphrase is not a summary but an adaptation of the original text. In addition, the paraphrase should always be referenced, placing the author's name and page number where it is possible to find the original text.

Enig-ma

The word enigma had its first known use in the mid 16th century, used as a noun to refer to a person, thing or situation considered obscure or concealed/unknown.


  • Root:

As is the case with more than 50% of English words, which have either Latin or Greek roots references, enigma has two root references. The word<em> aenigma</em> from the Latin language, means riddle and from the Greek word <em>ainigma</em> obtained from the word <em>ainissesthai</em> which means to speak in riddles derived from ainos  - fable.

Prefix:


In this case there is no identifiable prefix.

Suffix:

A letter or group of words that when placed after the main word changes it meaning or gramatical function.

-ma is related to -ment (Middle English) concrete result of something... from the same  Greek noun suffix - mat / -ma
