The answer is: They must ensure the event is accessible to all people.

Explanation for each option:

  1. They must ensure the event is accessible to all people.
    This is the correct answer. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that public events be accessible to individuals with disabilities. This includes providing accommodations such as wheelchair access, sign language interpreters, and other necessary modifications to ensure that everyone can participate fully.

  2. The event can offer accessibility only if the resources are already in place.
    This is incorrect. The ADA mandates that event planners take proactive steps to ensure accessibility, regardless of whether resources are already in place. It is the responsibility of the event organizers to make necessary arrangements to comply with ADA guidelines.

  3. They will receive federal refunds if they follow ADA.
    This is incorrect. While there may be tax incentives or credits available for businesses that make accessibility improvements, there is no direct federal refund for simply following ADA guidelines. Compliance is a legal requirement, not a condition for receiving federal funds.

  4. They only need to make the event accessible if it is in a federal building.
    This is incorrect. The ADA applies to all public events, regardless of the location. It is not limited to federal buildings. The law covers a wide range of public accommodations and requires accessibility in various settings, including private venues hosting public events.

Which statement best describes how argument outlines are unique (different from outlines written for other types of essays)? Argument outlines require more careful thought because the writer must apply persuasive strategies when choosing the arrangement of ideas and the contents of all paragraphs, including the introduction, all body paragraphs, and the conclusion. Argument outlines require teamwork: you must find a friend who disagrees with you and ask that person to write all of the opposing parts of your outline. Because argument essays never include conclusion paragraphs, you should not outline ideas for a conclusion paragraph. Argument outlines will outline just the research and how it will be used, which means they are much shorter than outlines for other types of essays.
