Of course.  Ideas about the dangers of scientific advancement in the novel are definitely applicable to today's world, maybe even more so than they were relevant then, because we are making more progress faster.  For your paper, you can think of the infamous robotic scare that's been around for decades; the idea that if we continue to make and relay and advance with robotic machines, and the toy of artificial intelligence such as Siri, one day they will take over.

Answer:

B.Gallaudet University should appoint a person who is deaf as its next president.

Explanation:

The author's thesis is best summarized in option B. The first evidence where the author claims that a deaf person should be the president of Gallaudet University is when he mentions that disabled people have the right to integration and involvement in society.

The second piece of evidence that supports the thesis is when the author says, "It [Gallaudet University] is held in the highest regard by deaf people throughout the United States and the world." Claiming that it should be an example for the nation and the world that the president of such a prestigious university has a disability. The last piece of evidence that supports his thesis is in the fifth paragraph "Gallaudet has a responsibility to set an example and thus to appoint a President who is not only highly qualified but who is also deaf."
