Question: Reread paragraph 2 of this speech excerpt. What was President Kennedy's main reason for writing this paragraph?

<em>Options:</em>

  • To warn U.S citizens that sending a spacecraft to the moon and back would be dangerous.
  • To describe what a spacecraft going to the moon would be like.
  • To convince U.S citizens to consider a career related to space exploration.
  • To explain that a moon mission would be an amazing feat that required boldness.

Answer: The correct answer is: <u>To explain that a moon mission would be an amazing feat that required boldness. </u>

Explanation: President Kennedy mentions that the equipment that will be used is all that will be needed for having enough guidance, propulsion, control communications and food and survival for landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth but that it will be a challenge due to many factors, one of them being the speed which has dangerous heat effects. In the end of his speech, he mentions the need of doing this right the first time and that they must be bold to accomplish it.

Imagine there was a shipwreck. You are stranded in a lifeboat with a tiger. Both of you are hungry and thirsty. You fear the tig
Triss [41]

Answer and Explanation:

You: I can tell by the look in your eyes that you're thinking of eating me.

Tiger: That's true. I am indeed.

You: Well, I'd like to advise you against that. If you eat me, your chances of surviving afterwards will diminish.

Tiger: I doubt that. If I eat you, I will gain strength. Consequently, I'll be able to survive for a few more days. That might be enough for a ship to show up and rescue me.

You: That reasoning is good, but flawed. Yes, you will gain strength that will last for a few days. However, if a ship does not show up in a few days, you will die. Fishing is not one of your abilities as a tiger, so you won't catch anything to eat after devouring me. Also, if a ship does show up, the crew may very well be afraid of taking you with them for fear that you might attack and eat them.

Tiger: I see... go on.

You: If you keep me alive, we will solve all of those issues. I can fish for the both of us. We'll both maintain our strength until a ship shows up, even if it takes long. When that happens, they will certainly take us in. I will vouch for you, letting them know you were civilized enough not to eat me. Therefore, they can trust you not to eat them.

Tiger: I see your point, and it is a good one. I promise not to eat you if you promise to keep your word.

You: I promise. We have a deal.
