<em>Which sentence in this excerpt from President Richard Nixon's speech "The Great Silent Majority" contains the thesis statement? </em>

<em>The correct answer is: Let us all understand that the question before us is not whether some Americans are for peace and some Americans are against peace. The question at issue is not whether Johnson's war becomes Nixon's war. The great question is: How can we win America’s peace?   </em>

  • <em>This sentence contains the thesis statement. The topic is, “How can we win America’s peace?” And how does President Nixon control the ideas of his thesis? First, he says what the question is not, he says that it is not about who is against or in favor of peace, or who started Vietnam War. When Nixon says what the question is not, helps us in being more objective with the topic, he urges not to fall into the misconceptions of the topic and to focus on what really matters: “How can we win America’s peace?” In addition, when Nixon says what the question is not, he is reflecting his opinion, or judgment.  </em>

Answer:

The rhythm and word choice in these three lines from Levertov's "Overheard over S.E. Asia" open the poem with a flat tone.

Explanation:

This is one of many anti-Vietnam poems Levertov wrote. The general tone at the beginning of these lines show a quiet sensation that could be considered flat, as people see the white phosphorus coming down as snow, later as the poem continues the tone changes in a very different direction, it goes from a flat presentation to a strong and varied poem.

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The numbers used in parentheses are from the order of the sentences in the question part. The sentences are arranged properly as following;

1 (1) A long time ago, there was nothing but darkness. 2 (2) God pointed at the darkness and uttered a command. 3 (4) Suddenly from the darkness emerged a bright, translucent sphere hanging in midair. 4 (8) Inside the sphere sat God, creator of everything. 5 (6)The bright light from the sphere fell on the vast expanse of water. 6 (5) Within the sphere was an animal. 7 (3) The animal dived into the water and brought up a small piece of mud, which started expanding. 8 (7) This action led to the creation of Earth.

Explanation:

<em>"Ex nihilo"</em> is a Latin phrase meaning "out of nothing". It figuratively means that God created the cosmos out of nothing.

First sentence is the beginning of the story as shown by the traditional starting phrase <em>"A long time ago"</em>

The second sentence tells us what happened to the darkness (given a command by God). It is also important to note the use of article "<em>the"</em> before "darkness", since it has been mentioned before.

The third sentence tells us what happened as the result of the command. (Note the use of article "a" before sphere).

The fourth sentence tells more about the sphere and uses "the" before "sphere". It also mentions God.

The fifth sentence tells about the bright light (light of God).

The sixth sentence introduces animal using article "an".

The seventh sentence tells us what the animal did (use of "the" before "animal").

The eighth and last sentence concludes the story with the creation of Earth.
