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.

what is Paine calculating will be the result of the ethical appeal he uses in lines 37-47? (The Crisis by Thomas Paine)

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Thomas uses the ethical appeal towards how a parent should behave, "if there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace". He aims to give the public a sense of duty, that their young ones would not see struggle. He persuaded the American colonists to defend their Continent by convincing them that they are entitled to a life of freedom and happiness, and that "America will never be happy 'till she gets clear of foreign dominion" meaning that their life and happiness depends on their victory against the British.
