Read the passage from President Bush's speech.


"Many in our country do not know the pain of poverty, but we can listen to those who do.

And I can pledge our nation to a goal: When we see that wounded traveler on the road to Jericho, we will not pass to the other side.

America, at its best, is a place where personal responsibility is valued and expected."



Which statement best describes the argument Bush makes in his speech?



"personal responsibility is valued and expected"


"pledge our nation to a goal"


"wounded traveler on the road to Jericho,"

Sagot :

After reading the passage from President Bush's speech, we can say that the statement which best describes the argument the president makes is:

A. "Personal responsibility is valued and expected."

The argument President Bush makes in the excerpt we are analyzing here is that, in America, empathy for those who are suffering is important and necessary.

Even if one is not poor, one can listen to and help those who are. Americans, according to the president, will not turn their backs to those in need.

Among the statements in the passage, the one that best describes that argument is "personal responsibility is valued and expected." In other words, all Americans should be responsible for all Americans. No one can walk away and simply not help.

With that in mind, we can choose letter A as the best option.
