Raise the driving age to 18!
after reading mr. j. brown's letter, dated august 15, i feel compelled to write and let your readers know how i feel about raising the driving age from 16 to 18. teenagers should not be allowed to drive until they are 18. only high school graduates should be given a driver's license, and only after successfully completing a driver's education class during their senior year of high school.
right now, 15-year-olds can get a practice permit and try for their license at 16. this is too young. eighteen is a better age. at 18, people are more mature and better able to make mature decisions. not all 18-year-olds are mature, but the majority of them are. at least we are more mature than 15-year-olds.
which sentence provides the best supporting point to defend the author's position?
a) teenagers should not be allowed to drive until they are 18.
b) only high school graduates should be given a driver's license.
c) some younger teenagers are perfectly mature and responsible, of course.
d) at 18, people are more mature and better able to make mature decisions.

Select the correct answer. in this excerpt from "a modest proposal" by johnathan swift, what does the author list? i can think of no one objection, that will possibly be raised against this proposal, unless it should be urged, that the number of people will be thereby much lessened in the kingdom. this i freely own, and 'twas indeed one principal design in offering it to the world. i desire the reader will observe, that i calculate my remedy for this one individual kingdom of ireland, and for no other that ever was, is, or, i think, ever can be upon earth. therefore let no man talk to me of other expedients: of taxing our absentees at five shillings a pound: of using neither cloaths, nor houshold furniture, except what is of our own growth and manufacture: of utterly rejecting the materials and instruments that promote foreign luxury: of curing the expensiveness of pride, vanity, idleness, and gaming in our women: of introducing a vein of parsimony, prudence and temperance: of learning to love our country, wherein we differ even from laplanders, and the inhabitants of topinamboo: of quitting our animosities and factions, nor acting any longer like the jews, who were murdering one another at the very moment their city was taken: of being a little cautious not to sell our country and consciences for nothing: of teaching landlords to have at least one degree of mercy towards their tenants. lastly, of putting a spirit of honesty, industry, and skill into our shop-keepers, who, if a resolution could now be taken to buy only our native goods, would immediately unite to cheat and exact upon us in the price, the measure, and the goodness, nor could ever yet be brought to make one fair proposal of just dealing, though often and earnestly invited to it.a. reforms that had failed to improve ireland's situation b. the unrealistic measures discussed by irish government officials c. viable measures that could improve ireland's situation d. measures that would unify the populace of ireland

What is implied in this sentence from mark twain's "the £1,000,000 bank-note"? i was puzzled, and wanted to discuss the matter a little further, but they didn't; so i took my leave, feeling hurt and insulted to be made the butt of what was apparently some kind of a practical joke, and yet obliged to put up with it, not being in circumstances to resent affronts from rich and strong folk.
