Answer:
The best effective thesis statements are both the first ("Hollembeak's review of the high school's play is fun and entertaining to read") and third ("In her editorial, Mellie writes convincingly of the need for high school classes to begin later in the morning") options.
Explanation:
The first and third statements are the only ones which state a convincing thesis about an argument. Both of them are informative about what is the object argued and present a clear idea of the main point made on that. Second option does not apply to the question because it is lacking in some way, because though it is informative and sets an idea of the argument, it is very broad to state "the play's action [is] in the 21st century". Fourth option does apply to the question as well because it is not a thesis, that is just exploring the content of an argument made, clarifying ideas for readers. And fifth option does not apply to the question too, because it is not a thesis, that is just a description of an information previously given, it only characterizes an informative statement, not an effective thesis.
Speaker's brave conquests are mentioned or at least cited in the following options from the excerpt:
- <em>Option 1</em>, in which he tells about his innumerable combats he had won.
- <em>Option 4 </em>also celebrates his fight with Grendel.
- In <em>Option 6</em>, the speaker is showing us how valiant his action in the field of war can be.
Therefore, I assume, from my understanding, that these are the three statements from the provided excerpt which focus on the narrators heroic accomplishments.
I encountered this question before. The underlined idiom was "SHE PUT HER NOSE TO THE FIRE". This question also had choices. These were:
<span>She was cold as she wrote her speech, so she sat by the fire.
She worked hard to finish her speech for the assembly.
She was proud of the speech once she finished it.
She finished the speech in a very short amount of time.
The underlined idiom tells the reader that SHE FINISHED THE SPEECH IN A VERY SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.
When you put your nose to the fire, you don't last long because of the heat. Thus, you only spend a short amount of time putting your nose to the fire.</span>
