As students, we are all aware of the great pride we feel when we win an award on Awards Day. Few things are more rewarding than having your hard work recognized, right? Could you imagine being honored for your achievements by the president of the United States? For a select group of people, that dream has come true. The Presidential Medal of Freedom is the highest civilian award anyone can receive. It is awarded to people who have “made especially meritorious contributions to the security or national interests of the United States, to world peace, or to cultural or other significant public or private endeavors.” Meritorious means that these people have done something worthy of reward or praise. The Medal of Freedom is not limited to U. S. citizens. It can also be awarded to those in the military. Which of these statements from the passage is Monica's thesis?

This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts? thus truth was multiplied on truth, [the world like one great garden show'd,] and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd, rare sunrise flow'd. [and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise] her beautiful bold brow, when rites and forms before his burning eyes melted like snow. [there was no blood upon her maiden robes] sunn'd by those orient skies; but round about the circles of the globes of her keen eyes and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame wisdom, a name to shake [all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.] and when she spake, [her words did gather thunder as they ran,] and as the lightning to the thunder which follows it, riving the spirit of man, making earth wonder, so was their meaning to her words. no sword of wrath her right arm whirl'd, [ but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word] she shook the world.
