Answer:

I find the word 'boondoggle' unusual.  Since 'boondoggle' means 'a useless or wasteful project', I'd predict that they wasted time on planning a project that didn't work or didn't seem to cohere to what they were trying to do. But relating to an essay about the American space program, I'd say that they use the term boondoggle because people might have thought that the American space program were wasting time on exploring space when they still have a lot to learn on earth.

Explanation:

Try to change up the words so the teachers don't find out that you're plagarising, because I put this as my answer. Hope this helps though!

1. Which statement would be suitable as a thesis for a persuasive essay?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A. The United States should not interfere with Russian relations in Chechnya.

B. The state should increase driver's registration fees to pay for the new highway overpass.

B. The success of chimps in mastering sign language, however, indicates that they have indeed learned a simple language.

Explanation:

For the first question, A is thesis for writing a persuasive essay. A persuasive essay must convince the audience to take some sort of action. Option A is the best choice because it is trying to convince the audience that interfering in Russian relations in Chechnya would not be a good idea.

The second question has a similar requirement. The thesis statement needs to be something that is actionable. Increasing the driver's registration fees is the only action that is suggested in any of the sentences.

The last answer asks about the thesis of the passage. A thesis cannot be cited text so the first option is incorrect. Option C is not specific and doesn't actually say the main idea. This is also true of option D, it only focuses on one group of scientists rather than the bigger picture.

Fed [463]

D.J. MacHale's purpose after writing the book Sylo Chronicles is that people should not succumb to peer pressure.

The theme of a story is the message that the author passes across to the readers. It's the main point in a story. In this case, the theme of the story is that people should not succumb to peer pressure.

In the story, it can be deduced that the death of Marty was because she succumbed to peer pressure. Mr. Feit pushed her in collecting the ruby and she eventually died as a result. Even if other people are doing something bad, we should not join them.
