Question 7 of 10

Read this excerpt from a campaign speech:

My opponent in this race for the governor's office claims

that I am corrupt. He dares to suggest that I accepted

favors from business owners in exchange for putting them

in contact with state legislators who lowered business

taxes. This is an absurd claim. Moreover, I find it ironic that

he, of all people, wants to point fingers and talk about

corruption. Isn't it interesting that he accepts so many

campaign donations from the oil industry and is single-

handedly responsible for sponsoring state laws that ease

environmental regulations? Dear friends, remember on

Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,

It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle

trying to distract us from his own bad character.

Which statement best describes the speaker's point of view?

Answers

Answer 1

Incomplete question: Here are the options:

A. Citizens are too concerned about corruption in politics

B.The speaker's opponent is a decent person who has gotten in over his head.

C. The speaker's is innocent of all accusation

D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent

Answer:

D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent

Explanation:

From the excerpt of the campaign speech, the speaker who is not named directs the thoughts of his listeners to what he calls, the "bad character" of his opponent.

He makes his point of view more evident when he said,

"Dear friends, remember on  Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,  It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle  trying to distract us from his own bad character."

A. Cabeza de Vaca

B. La Salle

C. Cortes

D. Vasquez de Coronado

Answers

Answer:

A. Cabeza de Vaca started the legend of Cibola in Texas

Answer:

A. Cabeza de Vaca

Explanation:

"The later Spanish tales were largely caused by reports given by the four shipwrecked survivors of the failed Narváez expedition, which included Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca and a black moorish slave named Esteban Dorantes, or Estevanico. Eventually returning to New Spain, the adventurers said they had heard stories from natives about cities with great and limitless riches. However, when conquistador Francisco Vázquez de Coronado finally arrived at Cíbola in 1540, he discovered that the stories were unfounded and that there were, in fact, no treasures as the friar had described — only adobe towns."
