The answer would be B. It's the one that makes the most sense out of all the other answer choices.
Answer:
Hi, you didn't put the answer options, but I can help you by showing you that the central idea in “two ways of looking at a river” is the statement that the more we know something, the more we change our opinion about it .
Explanation:
"Two ways of looking at a river" is a work by Mark Twain and describes how he changed his mind about the Mississippi River as he got to know it more and more. In the text Twain shows how he saw the river as something beautiful, poetic , somewhat mystical and transcendent, as something supernatural and ideological. However, after becoming a steamboat pilot and knowing the river in a professional way he started to change his mind, he started to see the river as something normal and natural, very different from the vision I had before.
D. backround knowledge of the audience
Answer:
D
Explanation:
There is at least details for picking Franklin to write about. D is a possible answer.
I don't think A is correct. It states directly that Franklin was a hero. I don't think hero is quite the right word. On the other hand, signing the Declaration did make him heroic; the Declaration was Treason, or the British would have thought so. Still I believe D is the better answer.
B is simply wrong. Heroic and Important are very strong words.
C I don't see that any language is inappropriate for someone that reads well. In fact, the Declaration for example, is something every American should read. It is important to know why someone is an American.
I'll stick with D.
