Answer:

The correct answer is D. Africanized honeybees are now known as killer bees for several scary but legitimate reasons

Explanation:

In argumentative texts such as essays in which the main purpose of the author is to prove his/her position about an issue, the thesis statement or claim is the statement that summarizes the main point of the essay or the position the author has towards an issue or event. This means, the thesis goes beyond a fact or simple opinion and expresses an idea the author will prove.

According to this, in the introduction paragraph included the thesis is "Africanized honeybees are now known as killer bees for several scary but legitimate reasons" because in this sentence the author expresses his opinion toward Africanized honeybees that according to him are legitimately scary and this is the main point he will prove during the essay. Also, other sentences just provide information or facts about these bees but not the position of the author.

Answer: I dwell in possibility by Emily Dickinson:

I dwell in Possibility –

A fairer House than Prose –

More numerous of Windows –

Superior – for Doors –

Of Chambers as the Cedars –

Impregnable of eye –

And for an everlasting Roof

The Gambrels of the Sky –

Of Visitors – the fairest –

For Occupation – This –

The spreading wide my narrow Hands

To gather Paradise –

Do not go gentle into that good night by Dylan Thomas:

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
