Read the excerpt from chapter 25 of The Awakening. Or else she stayed indoors and nursed a mood with which she was becoming too familiar for her own comfort and peace of mind. It was not despair; but it seemed to her as if life were passing by, leaving its promise broken and unfulfilled. Which statement best summarizes the explicit message in the excerpt?

Edna is depressed.
Edna is unsatisfied.
Edna longs for her youth.
Edna breaks promises.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

  • Edna is unsatisfied.  

Explanation:

Edna Pontellier, who, while in an emotionless marriage to Léonce Pontellier, begins to look all starry eyed at Robert Lebrun and has a short affair with Alcée Arobin. An individual from New Orleans' privileged, she has artistic leanings.

Answer 2
Answer: It says it's not despair, so that rules out depression.  I see no mention or talk of youth or promises.  Edna being unsatisfied seems like the best answer because that's similar to the definition of unfulfilled.  (not having done or achieved something, not happy.)

What is the starting point for an argument? Claim Counterclaim Evidence Interpretation

Answers

Answer;

Claim

The starting point of an argument is claim.


Explanation;

Claim is the starting point for an argument. Good claims must be debatable, defensible, and insight-yielding.

Counterclaim is a claim that negates or disagrees with the thesis/claim.

Data allows the audience to understand what facts exist to support the claim. For an argument to move forward, the audience must at least provisionally accept the data. It provides a safe starting point since it's rooted in fact.

There is no set way to begin an argument, although the most traditional way, and the best option from this list, is "claim". Then you provide evidence to back up that claim.

A formal letter should have an heading, which is the summarized form of what the letter is about.
