Read this passage from "The Obligation to Endure":
It took hundreds of millions of years to produce the life
that now inhabits the earth - eons of time in which that
developing and evolving and diversifying life reached a
state of adjustment and balance with its surroundings. The
environment, rigorously shaping and directing the life it
supported, contained elements that were hostile as well as
supporting. Certain rocks gave out dangerous radiation;
even within the light of the sun, from which all life draws its
energy, there were short-wave radiations with power to
injure.

GIVE ME LIBERTY

The Struggle for Self-Government in Virginia

Thomas J. Wertenbaker


Chapter I: The Cornerstone of Liberty

Three little vessels—the Susan Constant, the Godspeed, and the Discovery—left England in December, 1606, under the command of Captain Christopher Newport, to found a colony on the distant shores of Virginia. Two decades earlier Sir Walter Raleigh had sent out a group of settlers to what is now North Carolina, and they had disappeared mysteriously. What had happened to them? men asked. Had they been killed by the Indians? Had they fallen victims to disease? Had they starved? Those who shared in this new venture must have wondered if a like fate awaited them in this strange new land.


But their spirits rose when they entered Chesapeake Bay. Landing parties were delighted with the "fair meddowes ... full of flowers of divers kinds and colors," the "goodly tall trees," and the streams of fresh water. It was a smiling country which seemed to bid them welcome. But when they entered the mouth of a broad river, which they called the James in honor of their King, and made their way up into the country, new doubts must have assailed them. They knew that savages lived in the dense forests which lined both banks; might not strange wild beasts live there also? Might there not be fatal diseases unknown in Europe?


What of the following best summarizes the main point of including information about the earlier colony of Sir Walter Raleigh?

To introduce one source of the settlers' fears

Answers

Urban legends that do not have a cautionary or moral element turn out to be horror stories. Their desired effect is to scare and entertain, on a superficial level, at least. Of course, folklorists identify deeper meanings in such tales, such as the need to make sense of social anxieties. Most urban legends concern some type of danger, such as disappearances and murders, or even paranormal activities.

An argumentative essay does all of the following, except:
a. Uses research and reason to create a logical argument
b. introduce a claim
c. Support your claim with evidence
d. Get to reader to agree with your point of view​

Answers

Answer:

d. Get the reader to agree with your point of view​

Explanation:

An argumentative writing can be defined as an expression of a writer's position (stance) on a subject matter or topic.

A claim can be defined as a statement that is used by a writer to prove, substantiate or support an argument.

Thus, a claim is an assertive statement expressed by a writer to prove that an argument is true or real.

This ultimately implies that, when writers engage in an argument or write an argumentative essay, they make use of a claim to state or express their opinions about the subject matter or topic.

An argumentative essay does all of the following;

a. Uses research and reason to create a logical argument.

b. Introduce a claim.

c. Support your claim with evidence.

A supporting evidence would help you in assessing and determining the credibility of the author's claims. Also, it's used to check whether or not the conclusion drawn from the claims are reliable, logical, and trustworthy.

A persuasive essay can be defined as a type of essay in which the aim or goals of the writer is to convince the readers (audience) to accept their own point of view, perspective, ideas or opinions. Thus, the main purpose of a persuasive essay is to inform an action in the minds of the potential readers by accepting all or part of the ideas, views, or perception being expressed by the writer.

In conclusion, getting the reader to agree with your point of view​ is a characteristic of a persuasive essay.
