Answer: All right, here goes nothing. *cracks knuckles*
To begin with, the article has a weak claim. While it does vaguely introduce their stance on the topic, it poses it as a question and not a statement. Also, this claim is written in the first person, unlike strong claims that are supposed to be written in the third person. As for the "support" section, even the very beginning strays from the original claim, instead saying why <em>they </em>should own a pet instead of why <em>everyone</em> should be allowed to own pets. For example, in the second paragraph, the author cites a story from a friend of a friend. That is not valid evidence. If it was on the news, however, and the author cited that as evidence instead, the article would be much stronger. The author also delves deeper into their own personal life instead of stating facts as they should have. The transition between paragraphs is clunky at best, with the third paragraph pretty much restating the claim instead of simply saying something like "Pets are helpful to our society." And finally, the entire purpose of that last sentence seems to be to wrap up the article in a hasty fashion, without any attention to restating the claim or the facts presented.
Hope this meets the criteria! Good luck!!

Answer:
A.
Explanation:
The Things They Carried is a book written by Tim O'Brien, on war. The book is based mostly on his experience as a soldier.
In chapter titled 'On the Rainy River,' O'Brien shares that one day when he was filled with fear, he wrote a letter to his family and left for Canada. While on his way to Canada, he stayed with Elroy Berdahl in the Tip Top Lodge.
So, on his last day at lodge, O'Brien and Elroy went for fishing and reached near Canada on boat. But O'Brien makes a decision to go to war and he sees an audience cheering him as he returns.
The reason for listing these people is because they were the people whom he let down.
Therefore, option A is correct.
