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.

Gordon Sterrett is embarrassed by his appearance. Which sentence from the passage best supports this statement?
Over [174]

Answer:

"This latter effect heightened by an unnatural glow which colored his face like a low, incessant fever."

Explanation:

The above sentence from the given excerpt most likely displays that Gordon Sterrett was extremely appalled by his shabby appearance. There is a detailed description of his appearance in the excerpt as 'small, slender, and darkly handsome, unusually framed eyes with long eyelashes with a blue semicircle of ill health' which clearly justifies Gordon's embarrassment to see him. The negative words 'unnatural glow', 'low face', and 'incessant fever' supports this claim effectively and justifies it constructively.

Identify the term that best describes the italicized words. We left the auditorium before the concert was over. noun clause
BaLLatris [955]
Well, this really depends on the word or words that are italicized. However, I did find somewhere on the Internet that the italicized words are <em>before the concert was over.
</em>If that is the case, then the correct answer is adverbial clause, given that it functions as a simple adverb, that is, it answers the question - when did something happen?
<em />When did we leave the auditorium? - Before the concert was over.
