Imagine your friend's cousin writes a rebuttal argument to her claim in favor of teens owning smartphones. Read his argument exc

erpt and answer the question that follows:
Smartphone ownership among teens is certainly on the rise. Yet there is reason for caution. Teens are showing signs of smartphone addiction. A survey by TextPlus found that half of teens "couldn't live without their mobile devices for a week, while 36 percent said they weren't able to go 10 minutes without checking their phones." All this time on the devices creates more chances for problems. Smartphones and social media have been linked to serious cases of cyber bullying. Some students have been hurt or worse. A school superintendent in California, J. Thomas Morton, sent a letter to parents. He asked them to monitor their teens' use of all electronic devices, as cyber bullying incidents are on the rise.

B) It contains specific, credible evidence but uses a disrespectful tone that should be edited.

C) It fails to support its claim with specific, credible evidence and uses a disrespectful tone.

Historia de cristobal colon en voz pasiva

Answer:

Cristóbal Colón fue un marino y colonizador genovés que, al servicio de los Reyes Católicos de España, realizó cuatro viajes a través del Océano Atlántico, que despertaron el interés en Europa por un nuevo continente, más tarde llamado América. Estas expediciones y los esfuerzos de Colón por establecer asentamientos permanentes en La Española iniciaron la colonización española, que resultó en una competencia entre las potencias europeas para colonizar América del Sur y del Norte.

En un momento en que comenzó la dominación mundial europea y la competencia entre los reinos europeos, que intentaban enriquecerse estableciendo rutas comerciales y colonias, la propuesta de Colón de llegar a Asia circunnavegando la Tierra hacia el oeste recibió el apoyo de la corte real española, que vio esperanza para el comercio de especias. Durante su primer viaje en 1492, Colón llegó a las costas de las Bahamas en lugar del Japón planeado y aterrizó en un lugar que llamó San Salvador. Durante otras tres expediciones, visitó las Antillas Mayores y Menores, las costas de Venezuela y Centroamérica, que tomó para el Imperio español.

El deterioro de las relaciones con la corte real española y los administradores coloniales en América llevó al arresto y destitución de Colón como gobernador de La Española en 1500 y luego prolongó las disputas sobre los beneficios que Colón quería para él y sus herederos de la corte real. Al final, logró superar solo algunos de ellos. Murió en Valladolid y sus restos se encuentran ahora en la Catedral de Nuestra Señora de Sevilla.
