Read the excerpt from an article. Lewis Township officials have been publicly—and loudly—quarreling for what seems like forever

over what to do with the 20-acre lot of land on the north side of Main Street. It seems to me that the decision is easy. A big-box retailer will bring Lewis hundreds of jobs—jobs desperately needed here. What is the writer’s primary purpose for writing this article?

From the excerpt you posted it looks like the writer's primary purpose is to persuade the audience to share his point of view.

This can be seen in phrases like "it seems to me that the decision is easy", where he implies that he has enough knowledge to see something that the Township officials are not seeing.

The primary purpose of the author in this excerpt is to convince the audience to support the construction of a big-box retailer in Lewis. The author tells us that there is a 20-acre lot of land on the north side of Main street in the town of Lewis, and that township officials have been arguing about what to do with that land. The author tells us that a retailer of this nature will bring jobs to the city, and therefore, he wants the audience to support his point of view.

Answer:

D. America must develop a world perspective of brotherhood to keep the American Dream alive.

Explanation:

King's objective is to convince us to come together as equals. Answer choice A is irrelevant to this purpose, as it is talking about people focusing on the rest of the world. Answer choice B is incorrect because he never implied that people's laziness got in the way of change. Answer choice C is false because it has nothing to do with this topic. Thus, answer choice D is the most logical.

Threateningly

We can tell that because the dogs are huddled together in fear, there's some sort of danger. Also the snarling suggests they are under caution or going on defense from some danger; they feel threatened.

Write Two paragraphs about project Tiger​
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Project Tiger is a tiger conservation programme launched in April 1973 by the Government of India during Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's tenure. The project aims at ensuring a viable population of Bengal tigers in their natural habitats, protecting them from extinction, and preserving areas of biological importance as a natural heritage forever represented as close as possible the diversity of ecosystems across the distribution of tigers in the country. The project's task force visualized these tiger reserves as breeding nuclei, from which surplus animals would migrate to adjacent forests. Funds and commitment were mustered to support the intensive program of habitat protection and rehabilitation under the project.[1] The government has set up a Tiger Protection Force to combat poachers and funded relocation of villagers to minimize human-tiger conflicts.

During the tiger census of 2006, a new methodology was used extrapolating site-specific densities of tigers, their co-predators and prey derived from camera trap and sign surveys using GIS. Based on the result of these surveys, the total tiger population was estimated at 1,411 individuals ranging from 1,165 to 1,657 adult and sub-adult tigers of more than 1.5 years of age.[2] Owing to the project, the number of tigers increased to 2,603–3,346 individuals by 2018.[
