The Palace of Versailles became a symbol of King Louis XIV's reign. He has been called a strong king with a vast influence over Europe and his palace has been referred to as the "symbol of monarchy at its peak".

<em>Louis XIV of France</em>, also known as <em>Louis the Great </em>or <em>the Sun King</em>, is the ultimate symbol of absolut monarchy. To show his absolute power to the world, he engaged in the construction of the splendid Palace of Versailles, among others. He removed himself and his court from Paris, and move to this new seat of power, where he was the supreme authority in control of everything and everyone.

As an art-lover, he entrusted this work to many artists such as André Le Nôtre, Louis Le Vau, Charles Le Brun and Jules Hardouin-Mansart, and made them clear he wanted Versailles to be a majestic symbol of his absolute power and beauty. The Hall of Mirrors, the central gallery of the palace where 17 windows that overlook the breathtaking gardens reflect on 17 mirrors, summarizes what the Palace of Versailles meant: it exhibits monarchy at its peak.

Read the following thesis statement that compares two texts.
mr_godi [17]
The answer is A. Kotowski cites four scholars who specialize in the study of volcanoes, whereas Ferguson cites only the encyclopedia.

The given thesis is arguing that Kotowski is more reliable than Ferguson because he backs up his statements with a greater number of more reliable sources. In choice A, Kotowski is not only using three more sources than Ferguson, but they're sources from reputable specialists, making them higher quality sources as well.

If you're still confused, you can use elimination to rule out the others:

B. B doesn't work because there's no mention of the rate of volcanic change in the thesis. Although the statement may be true, it's not evidence to support the writer's claim.

C. C doesn't work because there's no mention of the frequency of volcanic eruption in the thesis. Again, although the statement may be true, it doesn't necessarily support the writer's claim.

D. D doesn't work because there's no mention of the similarities between the two pieces. If the thesis is arguing that Kotowski's work is different from Ferguson's because it's more reliable, it'd be counterproductive for the writer to mention the similarities of the work. Therefore, this "evidence" has no relation to the thesis and would not support the author's thesis.

Hope this helps!
