Answer:

A

Explanation:

Read the following paragraph.

Students attending schools with mandatory uniform policies experience less pressure than do students who must choose their wardrobes. This is because school uniforms allow students and their parents to save money and time. The financial investment in uniforms at the beginning of the school year is far more economical than the purchase of an entire wardrobe of designer clothes and trendy styles. Students who do not have to deliberate what to wear each morning are able to invest their time in more productive ways, such as studying for tests or finishing homework. Uniforms may stifle students’ self-expression, but there are many other ways to reveal one’s individuality at school.

Which of the following statements best supports the author’s claim?

A.) School uniforms, which are less baggy than many modern styles, make it more difficult for students to hide contraband items.
B.) School uniforms make it easier for faculty and staff members to identify students as members of the student body.
C.) Students are more focused on classroom instruction and less interested in what their peers are wearing.
D.) Parents are supportive of public schools adopting school uniforms for several reasons; the most common being affordability

Have you ever wondered how many feathers cover a bird? That really depends on what kind of bird. Hummingbirds, which are very small, have about 940 feathers. By contrast, over 25,000 feathers cover a swan. Feathers serve the same purpose as mittens, hats, heavy coats: they help the birds stay warm. Many newborn birds, such as robins, are born bald. They have to stay in their nest to keep warm until their feathers develop. Other baby birds, like ducklings, are born with a soft coat of fluffy down. They are ready to run, swim, and follow their mothers around the lake.

Passage 1

Graphic Novels

Graphic novels became popular in the 1980s. A graphic novel is a type of long novel that combines images and words like a comic book. However, while a comic book tells a story in multiple parts over time, a graphic novel tells the entire story in one book. Graphic novels also have serious themes and amazing artwork. Graphic novels are not necessarily original pieces of work. Popular comic strips are usually redone as graphic novels.
Will Eisner is considered to be one of the first graphic novelists in America. Today, he is known as "the father of the graphic novel." He published his first graphic novel in 1978. The paper quality of the graphic novel is also different from that of comics. After Eisner published his books, the demand for better types of comics increased.

Passage 2

Novels

Novels are fictional works that use words to tell stories. Novels may have a few illustrations, but only to support the text. Reading novels helps improve the imagination of readers because they recreate scenes in their minds as they read the text. Reading novels also helps readers learn new words. Novels are a great form of entertainment for readers.
Graphic novels, on the other hand, are novels that have words but also use images to tell the story. Readers enjoy graphic novels because colorful graphics accompany few words. People who do not enjoy reading dense text may find graphic novels more enjoyable.
Despite the differences, both these mediums of storytelling have continued to flourish.
