When he saw the lion, he went closer to the lion and said, “What is the matter? Why are you resting here?” The lion narrated him the pathetic story. The Jackal instantly made a way out from the sand but the lion was unable to move his feet. As he was set in the same posture for last several days, his body became stiff. The jackal understood the condition of the lion and helped him to get out of the mud with an extra effort. The Lion was really thankful to jackal for his kind help. He was very happy to get free after so many days. The Lion appreciated the effort made by the jackal.

Should Americans be Forced to Use Public Transportation? by Jack Davis First, let me define what the question is and isn’t asking. It isn’t asking if we should we all abandon cars right now, nor is it asking if we should abandon them completely, nor is it asking if every American should do so. It is asking whether some Americans should have to take public transit some of the time, and I would say yes. Oil use and pollution aside, in some cities like Los Angeles and New York there just isn’t room for any more roads, so in order for large cities to grow, they need more people to take public transit or risk permanent traffic jam. One bus can safely hold 40 people, so even at half capacity that’s nearly 20 cars’ worth of space in traffic cleared up, and nearly 20 parking spaces that don’t need to be built. There are a lot of people that can take public transit with little inconvenience but simply don’t because they never have in the past. If residents in areas with plenty of transit had to buy transit passes as part of their property taxes then they would have little excuse not to bus occasionally. A number of universities already bundle a ‘U-Pass’ with their tuition fees, forcing their students to take the bus. When given the chance the majority of those students have voted to keep these programs. A similar system in apartments where a portion of the tenants are not issued parking spaces in exchange for a discount on their rent would also be forcing people to use public transit. This is already being done with the assignment of one community car to several apartment tenants that arrange a schedule for the car, and this program gets many positive reviews. So yes, I would say that Americans should be forced to use public transit, as Americans whom are already forced to do so find that it works well for them. Taken from: www.helium.com What is the function of the last paragraph? a. Describing the problem b. Stating the reasons behind the thesis c. Giving arguments d. Stating the proposal e. Repeating the thesis or proposal
