Read the paragraph. (1) Each state should enact a law that makes wearing seat belts mandatory for all passengers and drivers in

cars and trucks. (2) Statistics show that seat belts reduce serious crash-related injuries and deaths by fifty percent. (3) As a result of laws like this in various states, seat belt usage in the United States has dramatically increased in the past thirty years. (4) Some people believe that the government does not have the right to force people to be safe, and that these laws are unfair. (5) The bottom line is that seat belts are proven to save lives; therefore, everyone should be forced to wear one if they want to travel by car or truck.

Answer:

sentence 1

Explanation:

The author's claim or assertion of the truth of something is stated in the topic sentence, which is usually the first of the paragraph. In that matter, the topic sentence serves as a summary of what the paragraph will be about, while the following sentences provide evidence, examples and explanation to support it. Thus, the declaration that wearing seat belts should be mandatory for all passengers and drivers in cars and trucks in all states is justified by the rest of the sentences.

Which term most clearly describes a medium? rhetoric magazine hoax or stance
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Magazine

Explanation:

I'm assuming the question has to do with The term that most clearly describes a medium of communication.

With that in mind, the correct answer is <u>magazine</u> because it a written medium of communication where texts, pictures and articles are written down to pass information to the reader about something.

The other options, rhetoric, hoax and stance are in no way directly related to an effective medium of communication.

Vesna [10]
The poem "One, Two, Three" suggests an indecisive tone because Senesh was uncertain as to the time of her death. One line that demonstrates this tone is "<span>Life is a fleeting question mark". By describing life as a question mark, she shows the uncertainty of life. Also the use of the words may and maybe add to the indecisive tone as they are words of possibility rather than certainty. </span>
