Thoreau supports his claim in this excerpt: He shares statistics about casualties in the Mexican-American War. Thus, option C is the correct option.

Thoreau offers distinctive contributions to ontology, the philosophy of science, and radical political thinking in addition to his emphasis on ethics in an existential sense. Although though his writings on natural science were not even published until the late 20th century, despite the justifiable fame of his political articles, they assist to paint a more full picture of him as a thinker.

A series of manuscript volumes containing information on Native American religion and culture was one of the manuscripts he left incomplete. Thoreau's writings represent a perennially valuable challenge to our understanding of the processes and goals of philosophy itself and foreshadow certain subsequent advances in pragmatism, phenomenology, and environmental philosophy.

Underline the run-on and fragmented sentences in the following paragraph:

In “A Goodman Is Hard to Find,” Flannery O’Connor presents two alternative visions of the cosmos. The first is of a Godless, nihilistic universe. The second, a universe buoyed by God’s guiding hand. Although, most critics believe that her purpose is to shock the reader into realizing the need for God’s grace. It is hard to escape the fact that an entire family, innocent children included, is gunned down in an act of mindless violence their bodies are dumped in the woods or left in the ditch; as is the case with the grandmother’s corpse. In spite of the fact that she wants to show the need for God’s grace. Such violence cannot promote the presence of God in the world, thus those critics who believe O’Connor presents a nihilistic vision are right.
