In this excerpt from the "Checkers" speech by President Richard Nixon, which sentence can best be considered the thesis statemen

t?
But all of these people and all of these allowances are for strictly official business; business, for example, when a constituent writes in and wants
you to go down to the Veteran's Administration and get some information about his Gl policy-items of that type, for example. But there are
other expenses which are not covered by the Government. And I think I can best discuss those expenses by asking you some questions.
Do you think that when I or any other Senator makes a political speech, has it printed, should charge the printing of that speech and the mailing
of that speech to the taxpayers? Do you think, for example, when I or any other Senator makes a trip to his home State to make a purely political
speech that the cost of that trip should be charged to the taxpayers? Do you think when a Senator makes political broadcasts or political
television broadcasts, radio or television, that the expense of those broadcasts should be charged to the taxpayers? Well I know what your
answer is. It's the same answer that audiences give me whenever I discuss this particular problem: The answer is no. The taxpayers shouldn't be
required to finance items which are not official business but which are primarily political business.

Write two paragraphs that analyze two points about why Gilgamesh is an epic hero. Be sure to use more than one example from the
Gnom [2670]

Answer:

La dificultad para responder a esta pregunta reside en que puede ser formulada casi al revés. Gilgamesh es considerado, sin lugar a dudas, el héroe épico original en la literatura universal. Fue el rey de Uruk, una antigua ciudad mesopotámica conocida por sus espectaculares murallas, y se le considera como dos tercios divino y un tercio humano. Su vínculo con los dioses (siendo dos tercios divino y rechazando los acercamientos de la diosa Ishtar, además de acabar con su toro monstruoso) y la magnitud de su fuerza y logros lo posicionan al nivel de un héroe épico.

Además, Gilgamesh emprende una búsqueda épica—posiblemente la primera que se ha registrado. Tras la muerte de su mejor amigo Enkidu, busca la inmortalidad. Siguiendo el estilo de una verdadera búsqueda épica, similar a la búsqueda del Santo Grial o el viaje de regreso de Odiseo, se enfrenta a numerosas criaturas y supera múltiples obstáculos—tanto internos como externos. Aunque finalmente no logra alcanzar la inmortalidad, regresa a Uruk como un gobernante más sabio y noble que el que era.

Considero que esta es una respuesta de experto y la modificaré si se considera plagio a través de Edge2021.
