Select the correct text in the passage.
In which sentence does the author most clearly define his argument?
adapted from The Goal of Sending a Man to the Moon
by John F. Kennedy

If we are to win the battle that is now going on around the world between freedom and tyranny, the dramatic achievements in space which occurred in recent weeks should have made clear to us all the impact of this adventure on the minds of men everywhere. Since early in my term, our efforts in space have been under review. With the advice of the Vice President, we have examined where we are strong and where we are not, where we may succeed and where we may not. Now it is time to take longer strides—time for a great new American enterprise—time for this nation to take a clearly leading role in space achievement. This in many ways may hold the key to our future on earth.
Recognizing the head start obtained by the Soviets with their large rocket engines, we nevertheless are required to make new efforts on our own.For while we cannot guarantee that we shall one day be first, we can guarantee that any failure to make this effort will make us last.We take an additional risk by making it in full view of the world, but this very risk enhances our stature when we are successful.We go into space because whatever mankind must undertake, free men must fully share.
I therefore ask the Congress, above and beyond the increases I have earlier requested for space activities, to provide the funds which are needed to meet the following national goals:
First, I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth. No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind, or more important for the long-range exploration of space. None will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish.In a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon—if we make this judgment affirmatively, it will be an entire nation.For all of us must work to put him there.
Secondly, an additional 23 million dollars, together with 7 million dollars already available, will accelerate development of the Rover nuclear rocket.This gives promise of some day providing a means for even more exciting and ambitious exploration of space.This will perhaps go beyond the moon, perhaps to the very end of the solar system itself.
Third, an additional 50 million dollars will make the most of our present leadership, by accelerating the use of space satellites for world-wide communications.
Fourth, there will be an additional 75 million dollars—of which 53 million dollars is for the Weather Bureau. This will help give us at the earliest possible time a satellite system for world-wide weather observation.
Let it be clear that I am asking the Congress and the country to accept a firm commitment to a new course of action—a course which will last for many years and carry very heavy costs: 531 million dollars in fiscal '62—an estimated seven to nine billion dollars additional over the next five years. If we are to go only half way, or reduce our sights in the face of difficulty, in my judgment it would be better not to go at all.

1.)For while we cannot guarantee that we shall one day be first, we can guarantee that any failure to make this effort will make us last.
2.)We go into space because whatever mankind must undertake, free men must fully share.
3.)In a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon—if we make this judgment affirmatively, it will be an entire nation.
4.)This gives promise of some day providing a means for even more exciting and ambitious exploration of space.

Answers

Answer:

3 but see below.

Explanation:

This is a really hard question. Kennedy always restated what he wanted to say in a different way. He was a great speaker -- one of America's most literate men.

I would pick 3. It is a heartfelt statement that includes the entire nation. And it states (in his mind) the most important reason for undertaking a moon mission.

But look at the other answers.

Isn't 4 a prophetic dream? Don't you think it turned out to be true?

And 2 also takes in the entire nation. I just think 3 is more clearly stated.

The poetry in one is a very strong argument. It is typical Kennedy at his best.

I still pick 3 but don't be surprised if your instructor does not agree.

How does Helena react to Lysander's sudden love for her when he awakens?
She falls in love with him
she is angry and thinks he is teasing her
She is happy as she has loved him all along
She tells Herima right away

Answers

Answer:

she is angry and thinks he is teasing her

Explanation:

Puck has mistakenly applied the juice from flower "love-in-idleness" (wild pansy) on Lysander’s eyes. When applied to the sleeping person, the juice makes them fall in love with the first person they see.

Helena is the one to stumble upon Lysander and wakes him up. As Helena is the first person he saw, Lysander falls in love with her immediately.

But Helena knows Lysander loves Hermia and is very confused by his sudden change of heart. Helena gets angry and thinks he is mocking her (Wherefore was I to this keen mockery born? / When at your hands did I deserve this scorn? ). She scolds him for playing with her and insulting her (I thought you lord of more true gentleness. / O, that a lady, of one man refused. /Should of another therefore be abused!). Offended and embarrassed, Helena runs away.

Our aim should be to attain perfection in whatever we do.

2. Tagore envisions the "clear stream of reason" as people caring about what affects them. He wants people to use their voice to take action.

3. Dead habit refers to mindless practicing of obsolete customs and traditions, old beliefs, superstitions and a narrow-minded attitudes. This habit corrodes the mind and renders it useless.

Identify the type of FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE. "Might drop on his head from the sky..." Group of answer choices
metaphor
hyperbole
personification
alliteration

Answers

Answer:

Hyperbole

Explanation:

My guess is that the text is not applied literally and rather is just an exaggeration.

The type of figurative language being used in the sentence, "Might drop on his head from the sky..." is Hyperbole.

Hyperbole is an exaggeration of a situation or event. It is used by an author or writer to express intensity.

In the sentence above, it is actually almost impossible for something to drop on one's head from the sky. The expression might be used to connote the far distance of something.

So, hyperbole was used by the speaker in this sentence.

dramatic irony examples on oedipus the king scene 3 quotes plzz ​

Answers

Answer:

Oedipus says:

'I did not think it fit that I should hear

of this from messengers but came myself,

I Oedipus whom all men call the Great.'

The play opens with a scene already full of dramatic irony. The city of Thebes is suffering from a plague and the people have turned to their king, Oedipus, for help. In the past, he saved them from the Sphinx, so they trust that he can solve this problem as well. Of course, neither the citizens of Thebes nor Oedipus himself realize that he is the reason for the curse on the city.

Oedipus states:

'Whoe'er he be, I order

That… all men from their houses banish him;

Since it is he contaminates us all,

Even as the Pythian oracle divine

Revealed but now to me.'

At this point in the play, an oracle has told Oedipus that there is a plague in the city of Thebes because the former king's murderer has never been found and punished. In this quote, Oedipus is referring to the murderer; he declares that once found, the murderer must be banished. This is dramatic irony because although we know Oedipus murdered King Laius, Oedipus doesn't, which means he also doesn't realize he's banishing himself. It's also interesting that he mentions the oracle revealing something to him, since it was an oracle early in his life who warned him about killing King Laius.

Oedipus says:

'On these accounts I, as for my own father,

Will fight this fight, and follow out every clue,

Seeking to seize the author of his murder.'

Again, Oedipus insists that he'll make sure Laius's murderer is punished, unknowingly cursing himself. He says that he'll search out the murderer with all his might, as he would for his own father. The declaration is an example of dramatic irony because he vows to find the murderer of his own father… he just doesn't realize Laius is his father or that he is the murderer, as we do.

The prophet Tiresias says:

'I say you know not in what worst of shame

You live together with those nearest you,

And see not in what evil plight you stand.'
