Read the excerpt from The Mother of America:

Martha Washington's promotion of democratic values as America's original first lady also proved her worthy of the name "Mother of America." She realized that the way she treated the role of first lady would set precedents for future women. Martha had to figure out how to create an atmosphere that reflected democracy and commanded respect from the rest of the world. To accomplish this, she held a reception once a week where different people could enjoy refreshments and exchange ideas. Unlike other events, Martha's reception was representative of democracy, as it was open to different groups of people, including both men and women. Overwhelming respect for Martha led to others calling her "Lady Washington." Despite praise for her work, Martha disliked the restrictions put on her as the first lady and missed her son. In spite of these concerns, Martha did her duty and remained to support the president and her country. Her role in defining America's first lady—the figurative "Mother of America"—was invaluable.

Indeed, Martha Washington's roles as first lady and general's wife revealed her nurturing nature and her promotion of democratic values, making her a prime candidate for the honorable title "Mother of America."

Which of the following passages best summarizes the point and second reason of The Mother of America?

a. Martha understood that she would be setting the standard for future first ladies. As a result, she held receptions that encouraged people from different walks of life, including women, to discuss ideas, which was very unusual for that time. Martha attempted to establish a democratic tone that also invited respect from other nations. She missed her son greatly but continued to fulfill her duties as first lady and representative of America.
b. Martha Washington could be considered the "Mother of America" for her devotion to democratic values as the first lady. She understood that she would be setting the standard for future first ladies. As a result, she held receptions that encouraged people from different walks of life, including women, to discuss ideas, which was very unusual for that time. The original first lady's success at incorporating democratic values proved that she was the "Mother of America."
c. Martha Washington could be considered the "Mother of America." She stayed to help her husband even though she hated life in the public eye. She missed her son greatly, but she insisted on staying. She also realized that the way she treated the role of first lady would set precedents for future women. Many people loved Martha Washington and treated her with respect. They even called her "Lady Washington" to honor her.
Selected:d. Martha Washington's promotion of democratic values as America's original first lady also proved her worthy of the name "Mother of America." Martha had to figure out how to create an atmosphere that reflected democracy and commanded respect from the rest of the world. Unlike other events, Martha's reception was representative of democracy, as it was open to different groups of people, including men and women. Her role in defining America's first lady was invaluable.

Explanation:

The point of the text refers to the main subject that the text promotes. In the case of the text above, we can see that the main point is the fact that Martha Washington had a very large role as first lady. She should be faithful to democratic values and establish the behavior and responsibilities that future first ladies should assume. The text shows that Martha needed to establish a reputation for respect without abandoning the democratic values of her country, so she worked to promote representative events, with citizens of all classes and genres. In a text, the second reason refers to the result that the actions shown in the text presented. In the case of the text above, Martha Washington's actions took her to the title of "mother of America", in addition to showing that she defined what would be a first lady and that definition was essential for the construction of the USA.

In this case, we can consider option D, as the correct option.

My intro
You have previously chosen a side to an issue, stated a claim, and you have written ideas about your claim in your Argument Organizer. Now you will use your ideas from the organizer (and tips from this lesson) to write the introduction to your argument. Write three or more complete sentences. Remember to include:
Overview: Volunteering can teach someone new skills and/or make friends. It's not bad to volunteer and many people may say it's fun although, there are some people who don't like volunteering and would disagree.
Explanation: Some people may think volunteering is just a waste of time or is boring. Others may not have time or money to volunteer.
Claim: Volunteering is a great way to meet new people or just help out by as on person.

Volunteering can be a great way to do thing and meet new people. But there is a con to everything, the con of volunteering may be not having time or not having the money. Thinking that volunteering is boring or a waste of time is an opinion not a fact, therefore it's not a con. But it's still note-worthy to many people. Some people may think of volunteering as an opportunity to get out of the house, help the community, or just for the fun. Volunteering has its pros and cons, but it has more pros than cons. Therefore, it should be necessary to graduate.

Shakespeare in Love' set to be reborn as theater

In a case of life imitating art imitating life, a British theater company has announced plans to rebuild an Elizabethan playhouse using the set from hit film "Shakespeare in Love."

The oak-timbered set, modeled on London's 16th-century Rose Theatre, was donated to the British Shakespeare Company by Judi Dench, who won an Academy Award for playing Queen Elizabeth I in the 1998 romantic comedy.

The set—a full-size replica of a galleried theater interior—was given to Dench by the filmmakers and is currently in storage. British Shakespeare Company artistic director Robert Williamson said Monday the actress had recently made the "wonderful decision" to donate it to the troupe for a permanent base in northern England.

Williamson said he imagined the venue as "a living history center," offering live performances and a display of costumes from the film, which starred Joseph Fiennes as the playwright and Gwyneth Paltrow as his feisty love interest. It won seven Oscars, including best picture.

The original Rose was built in 1587 on the south bank of the River Thames—then just outside the city limits of London, whose officials frowned on "disreputable" actors and often banned plays. Its repertoire included plays by William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe.

The British Shakespeare Company, which tours open-air productions of Shakespeare around the country, said it was looking at locations in the northern English cities of Sheffield, Manchester and York. It has set up a charitable trust to manage the project.

Williamson said northern England lacked a permanent Shakespearean venue. Audiences in southern England can visit Shakespeare's Globe, a rebuilt Elizabethan theater in south London, and the Midlands has the Royal Shakespeare Company, based in the Bard's hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon.

And yet Williamson said, "the four biggest Shakespearean actors are from the north of England—Ben Kingsley, Judi Dench, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen."

"We want to offer the north of England what London has," he said. "Every child in Great Britain still has to study Shakespeare. He's an integral part of our heritage and our identity."

This passage makes use of order of importance by beginning with the most important information of the donation of the set.

B. False.
