In Common Sense, Paine makes the point that just because America once benefited from its relationship with Great Britain, people
should not assume America cannot be successful without this support. What reasoning does Paine use to support this point?
"Small islands not capable of protecting themselves, are the proper objects for kingdoms to take under their care."
"We may as well assert, that because a child has thrived upon milk, that it is never to have meat; or that the first twenty years of our lives is to become a precedent for the next twenty."
"Volumes have been written on the subject of the struggle between England and America."
"Europe, and not England, is the parent country of America."
The reasoning that Paine uses in "Common Sense" to support this point is option B.
The meaning of Thomas Paine's argument is that every child grows to become an adult, who must necessarily survive and thrive without the parents.
Thus, Thomas Paine was arguing to convince the colonists to utilize their independent spirit and individualistic thinking to emancipate the United States from British colonialism.

I think the single sentence that shows it is a personal letter is "that all I can say is that I am well" as the rest of the letter is details about his military campaign so could be part of a more formal memo if it were not for this opening sentence so that seems to be how to identify it as such.
