<span>Thoreau’s personal experiences help give a sense of realisticness to what he’s writing within his essay. The idea of resisting the government, being above whichever laws, seems irrational and bogus before taking the time to read this essay and while obviously there’s still plenty of reason to confine to the government's wishes, his essay offers a outside input to the reasons in why you shouldn’t- not because he feels as if he’s immune to law, or above authority- but because he feels as current politicans and laws aren’t as honorable as they are made out to be. With his personal experience he expresses that even through his time in jail, the law only confined his body and mind and alongside that with his wanting to conform to societal views however not finding them honorable makes for a convincing and engaging read, it’s food for thought on the current laws we’re all abiding by at this moment.</span>

Read the paragraph.
devlian [24]

Answer:

The best option here is D) There are many ways to teach a child about responsibility besides taking care of a dog, such as homework and other activities

Explanation:

Lets use the method of elimination to justify this.

A) is a repetition of Sentence 3. So this is out of the equation.

B) communicates an idea that is contrary to the theme of the paragraph which can be summarised as "Teaching a Child to responsibility as well as manage himself and other tasks". Responsibility means doing all that you ought to do without prejudice to the other by taking each one at the right time

C) States that taking care of the family do is priority. Again this runs contrary to the main idea of the paragraph.

Having eliminated A, B and C, we are left with D.

Sentence D simply implies that a there are a number of things which teach a child how to be responsible, taking care of a dog, doing his or her homework and carrying out other activities are examples of such.

Cheers!

lyudmila [28]

The correct answer is <u>B: Most people are honest enough not to commit major theft.</u> The reason why is because one i did th test but the explanation behind it is that he says in the excerpt that "From Feldman’s perspective, an office worker who eats a bagel without paying is committing a crime; the office worker probably doesn’t think so." in context hes saying that most people are honest and will say they took something small like a bagel, but at the same time they wouldn't think of a bank robbery or something.

That's how I see it, I hope i helped have a great day and good luck with class.
