tigers left. [9] Much tigers have been killed by poachers. [10] Other
tigers may have grown tiredly of having humans around, and so they

Answer:

(5) situation was due to the fact that the tigers were protected so well by  the park system. (6) Today, though, you can't easily find a tiger in  the park. [7] In 1991, the largest number of tigers counted was forty-  five. [8] In 1992, the count was smaller; there were only seventeen  tigers left. [9] Many tigers have been killed by poachers. [10] Other  tigers may have grown tired of having humans around, and so they  may have left the park.

Explanation:

5. What we need here is an adverb to modify "were protected". "Good" is an adjective and cannot function that way, so the best option is to substitute it for "well". This is actually a common mistake. You will notice many people around you often use "good" where "well" would have been appropriate.

6. Following the logic of the paragraph, there aren't many tigers to be found. "Scarcely" does not go with the negative "can't". But if we substitute it for "easily", the right idea is conveyed.

7. The adjective "large" here should be in the superlative - notice it is accompanied by "the". The correct superlative form is "largest".

8. The opposite happens here. "Small" should not be in its superlative form, but in its comparative form. Notice that there is no "the". The correct form is "smaller".

9. "Much" can only be used with uncountable nouns. "Tigers" is a plural word, which shows it is countable. Therefore, we should use "many".

10. We "grow tired" of something or someone. This phrase does not use the adverb "tiredly" to convey its meaning.

Read “Ah! Sunflower” by William Blake. What is the poem’s rhyme scheme?

Ah, sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveler’s journey is done;

Where the Youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves, and aspire
Where my Sunflower wishes to go!

Read the excerpt from The Code Book.

More than a hundred million e-mails are sent around the world each day, and they are all vulnerable to interception. Digital technology has aided communication, but it has also given rise to the possibility of those communications being monitored. According to Zimmermann, cryptographers have a duty to encourage the use of encryption and thereby protect the privacy of the individual:

A future government could inherit a technology infrastructure that's optimized for surveillance, where they can watch the movements of their political opposition, every financial transaction, every communication, every bit of e-mail, every phone call. Everything could be filtered and scanned and automatically recognized by voice recognition technology and transcribed. It's time for cryptography to step out of the shadows of spies and the military, and step into the sunshine and be embraced by the rest of us.

In the excerpt, the purpose of the statistic "more than a hundred million e-mails” is to show that

Summer had just begun, and the temperature was
already in the nineties. Today was like any other day,
except warmer. John threw his bag onto the seat, stuck the
key into the ignition, and stepped on the gas. He took the

lanes. He tried his tricks of weaving in and out of traffic to
get ahead, but nothing ever made the arduous task of

Subway for its crowds. Although on time, the trains were
always too crowded for his taste. The unending pushing

the subway any day.
