Answer:
D). To persuade my audience that capital punishment fails to deter people from committing murder.
Explanation:
A purpose statement is described as a statement that primarily functions to define the topic and purpose of the speech or essay in a precise and compact manner. It reveals the key focus, direction, and objectives of the work that are going to be accomplished at the end.
As per the question, option D i.e. 'To persuade my audience that capital punishment fails to deter people from committing murder' reveals the purpose statement designed for a persuasive speech on a question of fact. <u>This would reveal the factual 'cause-and-effect'('capital punishment in preventing murders') direction that the speech would deal with. It would assist in establishing the credibility of the claim and convince the audience logically</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

The correct answer is A. Major Tallmadge developed a unique code system so that the Americans could send secret messages.
Explanation:
To find the central idea in a text, ask yourself what is the main idea the author expresses?. For example, in the passage presented the author focuses on the system Major Tallmadge created and how this system was very elaborated or complex, which is shown through details such as "He substituted digits for words" or "Tallmadge gave his agents a cipher". Moreover, the author implicitly suggests this was used for Americans to send secret messages as he mentions important American military leaders such as "Woodhull, Townsend, and General Washington" and shows how important was that the messages were only understood by few. In this context, the main idea is "Major Tallmadge developed a unique code system so that the Americans could send secret messages".
If we were to plug in the first option into the paragraph, it would sound like this...
The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, however, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.
This cannot be the correct answer because the word however is used to contradict something that has been said previously. This sentence has no reason to be contradicted.
If we were to plug in the second option into the paragraph, it would sound something like this...
The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, similarly, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, additionally, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.
This option can also not be the correct answer because no new factor is being introduced into the sentences.
If we plug in the first option into the paragraph, it will sound something like this...
<span>The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, in fact, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.
