Which of these introductory paragraphs is missing a thesis statement? lori lanson wrote, “the city, no matter how small, is corrupt and unrepentant, while the sun shines brighter in the country, making people more wholesome.” like the writer, some people think living in the country is better than living in the city. others disagree, believing that the city is full of excitement, diversity, and opportunities. when deciding whether to live in the country or the city, first consider the pros and cons of living in each environment. did you know that there are over 33 grams of sugar in a can of soda? that is over the daily limit of total sugar for most people. so if just having one can of soda can put you over your daily limit, think about how all the sugar in cookies, candy, and other treats can add up. the average american has up to 82 grams of sugar each day. that's almost three times the recommended amount! americans consume large amounts of sugar in their daily diets, which leads to a variety of health problems. go outside on a windy day and you can feel the power of the energy of the future. wind energy is created by using large wind turbines which changes the energy from the wind into electricity to power our homes and workplaces. wind power is available every day of the year, rain or shine. a large fan, called a wind turbine, is made up of a blade, a rotor, a drive train, a tower, and other things like electrical wires. a clenched stomach; tight, painful shoulders and neck; a racing mind. these are just a few of the symptoms of stress that many people feel on a daily basis. the pressures of work, school, and relationships can affect our bodies and our minds. fortunately, we can counteract these negative symptoms. mindfulness techniques, such as daily meditation, have been proven to increase wellbeing and reduce stress, illness, and disease. people should consider making daily habits out of these practices.

Read the selection below and answer the question. an open boat by alfred noyes o, what is that whimpering there in the darkness?    'let him lie in my arms. he is breathing, i know.  look. i'll wrap all my hair round his neck' – the sea's rising,  the boat must be lightened. he's dead. he must go.'     see - quick - by that flash, where the bitter foam tosses,   the cloud of white faces, in the black open boat,   and the wild pleading woman that clasps her dead lover   and wraps her loose hair round his breast and his throat.  'come, lady, he's dead.' - 'no, i feel his heart beating,  he's living, i know. but he's numbed with the cold.   see, i'm wrapping my hair all around him to warm him.' - - 'no. we can't keep the dead, dear. come, loosen your hold.   'come. loosen your fingers.' - 'o god, let me keep him! ' -  o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way!   and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness,   to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. which choice best describes the conflict in this poem? the winds are rocking the boat. a man is thrown into the sea. a woman doesn’t want to let go of her dead lover. someone is crying in the darkness.
