Question 8 (4 points)
Saved
Imagine that you are writing an essay with the following thesis:"Anyone driving through Pompton Clewes, a subdivision in Claxton County, could tell that the residents were wealthy."

Next you write a series of sentences in support of your thesis:
(a) Bushes pruned in the shapes of flamingoes, baseball players, and dollar signs--topiary art--could be spotted poolside.
(b) No house that we saw had room for fewer than seven bedrooms--or, perhaps, four bedrooms, an office, a queen-sized bathroom, and a sauna.
(c) The houses were designed for maximum space and luxury.
(d) Lawns were green and weed-free, like self-renewing wall-to-wall carpets.
(e) Huge bay windows displayed grand pianos and the shining, hand-wrought banisters of spiral staircases.
(f) Yards clearly enjoyed the care of professional gardeners.

All of these sentences would support your thesis logically. But two of them are broader than the others and could act as topic sentences for paragraphs in which the more specific, concrete details might be used as support. Which of the sentences in the list would make logical topic sentences for the two supporting paragraphs?

Which excerpt from the awakening best highlights the elation edna feels when she thinks of robert? the morning was full of sunlight and hope. edna could see before her no denial—only the promise of excessive joy. she lay in bed awake, with bright eyes full of speculation. “he loves you, poor fool.” he would come to her in the afternoon or evening, sit and roll his cigarette, talk a little, and go away as he had done the night before. but how delicious it would be to have him there with her! robert did not come that day. she was keenly disappointed. he did not come the following day, nor the next. each morning she awoke with hope, and each night she was a prey to despondency. his horses were full of mettle, and even a little unmanageable. she liked the rapid gait at which they spun along, and the quick, sharp sound of the horses' hoofs on the hard road.
