Part A
In "The Voyage of the James Caird," why does the author include this sentence about an
unrelated casualty at sea?
They would later learn that a 500-ton steamer had foundered with all hands in the same
hurricane they had just weathered. *
to help readers understand how remarkable the success of the voyage was 1
to explain what had happened to the ship the James Caird had left behind
to demonstrate that the size of a boat is unimportant in a storm
to add drama and suspense to her work of narrative nonfiction
Answer:
to help readers understand how remarkable the success of the voyage was 1
Explanation:
This is true because, it would help the reader to learn that, the same hurricane which they are complaining about, another steam boat weighing 500-ton just passed through the same hurricane successfully. That it weathered the hurricane, shows that, it was not affected by the hurricane.
Read the claim below.
The government should not use taxpayers' money to fund the arts.
Select the piece of evidence that best supports this claim.
The largest government arts program costs the average taxpayer only about
forty-five cents per year.
Private citizens, corporations, and foundations already spend billions of dollars
each year to support the arts.
The Federal Art Project was a government-funded program that employed
thousands of artists during the Great Depression.
Answer:
Private citizens, corporations, and foundations already spend billions of dollars each year to support the arts.
Explanation:
The piece of evidence that best supports this claim is "Private citizens, corporations, and foundations already spend billions of dollars each year to support the arts".
Actually, who are the taxpayers? They are private citizens, corporations and foundations. That means if the government is using taxpayers' money to fund arts, indirectly it means that the billions of dollars spent each year to support arts are the monies of the private citizens, corporations and foundations. This then means that these private citizens, foundations and corporations are actually the ones supporting the arts through the taxes they pay.
Answer:
Answer:
Private citizens, corporations, and foundations already spend billions of dollars each year to support the arts.

Next to the statues and the head, the slab seems unimpressive at first glance. It is roughly the size of a tabletop-three feet nine inches long, two feet four and a half inches wide, and eleven inches thick. But many experts would say that this rather small piece of rock was more valuable than any of the larger objects in the room. For it is the famed Rosetta Stone, which gave nineteenth-century scholars their first key to the secrets of ancient Egypt.

Think about the ideas of the pre-Socratic philosophers. Do you agree with any of their ideas? Why or why not?
Answer:
Presocratic philosophers are the Western thinkers preceding Socrates (c. 469-c. 399 B.C.E.) but including some thinkers who were roughly contemporary with Socrates, such as Protagoras (c. 490-c. 420 B.C.E.). The application of the term “philosophy” to the Presocratics is somewhat anachronistic, but is certainly different from how many people currently think of philosophy. The Presocratics were interested in a wide variety of topics, especially in what we now think of as natural science rather than philosophy. These early thinkers often sought naturalistic explanations and causes for physical phenomena. For example, the earliest group of Presocratics, the Milesians, each proposed some material element ¾ water, air, the “boundless,” as the basic stuff either forming the foundation of, or constituting, everything in the cosmos.
Such an emphasis on physical explanations marked a break with more traditional ways of thinking that indicated the gods as primary causes. The Presocratics, in most cases, did not entirely abandon theistic or religious notions, but they characteristically posed challenges to traditional ways of thinking. Xenophanes of Colophon, for example, thought that most concepts of the gods were superficial, since they often amount to mere anthropomorphizing. Heraclitus understood sets of contraries, such as day-night, winter-summer, and war-peace to be gods (or God), while Protagoras claimed not to be able to know whether or not the gods exist. The foundation of Presocratic thought is the preference and esteem given to rational thought and argumentation over mythologizing. This movement towards rationality and argumentation would pave the way for the course Western thought.

“He understood fully that he might actually be going to die; his arms, maintaining
his balance on the ledge, were trembling steadily now. And it occurred to him
then with all the force of a revelation that, if he fell, all he was ever going to have
out of life he would then, abruptly, have had. Nothing, then, could ever be
changed; and nothing more-no least experience or pleasure-could ever be added
to his life. He wished, then, that he had not allowed his wife to go off by herself
tonight-and on similar nights. He thought of all the evenings he had spent away
from her, working, and he regretted them. He thought wonderingly of his fierce
ambition and of the direction his life had taken; he thought of the hours he'd spent
by himself, filling the yellow sheet that had brought him out here. Contents of the
dead man's pockets, he thought with sudden fierce anger, a wasted life"(6-7).

To evaluate a piece of media means to
express the main idea in a clear and specific way.
disseminate the contents to a wide audience.
judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way.
communicate the information to a group of people.
Answer:
judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way.
Explanation:
express the main idea in a clear and specific way – this is not the right answer. Evaluation is more complex and analytical than just the main idea.
disseminate the contents to a wide audience – this is not the right answer. Evaluation of the message doesn’t concern spreading it.
judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way – this is the correct answer. Media is used to convey a certain message through some of the tools (radio, TV, internet, etc.) Therefore, its evaluation concerns seeing the message and analyzing it, giving the judge of it at the end. This includes possible critics or praise for the message, ways of conversion, tools, etc.
communicate the information to a group of people – this is an incorrect answer. Evaluation, as said before, does not concern the spreading of the information.
Answer: Option C
(C) judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way.
Explanation:
