Mama L [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Thoreau is saying that it makes no sense for a simple man, who had nothing to do with the formation of such a beautiful pond, to name the pond. Giving the pond such a simple name as "Flint's Pond" is discrediting all of the beautiful animals and beings who dwell there such as the ducks, the fish, and the beautiful flowers. The pond was named in the selfish thought of money, rather than majesty.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The primary purpose of a conclusion in an informative essay is to

B. refer back to the thesis.

Explanation:

In essay writing, the conclusion is the final paragraph.<u> Its purpose is to refer back to the thesis, that is, to restate what was initially claimed by the author. A conclusion should never present new information, examples, or evidence, otherwise it would not be a conclusion at all, but merely an extension of the essay's body. It should wrap up by once again reaffirming the main idea or topic in a shorter manner, with fewer words. Therefore, the best option for this question is B. refer back to the thesis.</u>
