What can the reader most likely infer about the king based on his conversation with the wounded man? (Paragraphs 21-24)
Nutka1998 [239]

Option C shows what we should infer about the conversation between the king and the wounded man, that is, we can see that the king prefers peace and forgiveness to violence.

<h3>Why was the man hurt?</h3>
  • The man wanted to kill the king.
  • He was found by the king's bodyguards, who beat him.

The man was losing a lot of blood through the wounds and would die quickly. However, the king found him halfway and decided to help him, being kind and giving him forgiveness for his actions.

The wounded man began to admire the king, which shows that kindness and forgiveness are more efficient than violence to seal the peace between people.

Why is the “Address at Rice University on the Nation's Space Effort” considered a great speech?
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

A: It persuaded people to support space exploration

Explanation:

This speech was given by President John F Kennedy in Houston, Texas in 1962.

Every speech has a goal, so the easiest way to rate a speech as great is to check if it fulfilled that goal.

1960s were the decade of the great tensions between USA and USSR. One of the contributing factors, surely, was "The Space Race" between the two countries. USSR had already sent the first live mammal is space (dog Laika in 1957) and the first man in space (Yuri Gagarin in 1961), so the USA was falling behind in this race. They knew that they needed a big boost, so they started plans for space exploration. Of course, exploration of space demands huge amount of money, so in order for that to happen there needs to exist a huge and strong support from the people. That is exactly what this speech helped to achieve as we know that only few years later, Americans were the first to land on the Moon.
