This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read the sentence from the speech.

"Those who came before us made that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space."

Why is the propaganda technique used in the sentence effective?

A. It persuades the reader to ask for more help from other countries in future space  exploration programs.

B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a  forerunner in all scientific endeavors.

C. It persuades the reader to want to save money on future scientific projects in this  country.

D. It convinces the reader to support other countries' efforts toward space exploration.

Answer:

B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a  forerunner in all scientific endeavors.

Explanation:

The repeated use of the word "first" to describe the United States´ historical role in technological development generates the idea that there´s an international competition for space exploration. Furthermore, the main propaganda technique used is a transfer to link the country´s role as the forerunner in previous developments to claim that we owe them being firsts in space exploration as well.

Answer:

B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a forerunner in all scientific endeavors.

Explanation:

Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space. (paragraph 8)

We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained, and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. (paragraph 10)

GalinKa [24]

Answer: The right answer is Eatonville, Florida.

Explanation: Although part of this story by Zora Neale Hurston takes place in the Everglades (Janie and her third husband live for a period of time there), I would contend that the main conflict occurs in the city of Eatonville, since it is there where the story begins, with a confident and exultant Janie returning home, but without her husband. The townspeople start speculating about their relationship and her husband's whereabouts, and they soon distrust her, but her friend Phoebe believes in her and she listens attentively as Janie recounts the true story of what happened - which also gives the reader an opportunity to know about the story of her life.
