Explanation:
Read Part One of Article B on sea otters.
If you have ever watched sea otters swim and play at your local zoo, you know they are extraordinary animals. But did you know they are under threat of extinction? That means no more sea otters in the wild and fewer in captivity. Sea otters have been on the Endangered Species List for over 45 years, but there are actions humans can take to protect them.
The Fur Trade
In the 1800s, sea otters were hunted for their fur. The fur trade between North America and Europe was booming, and sea otter fur was a popular option because of its thickness. By the mid-20th century, sea otters had been hunted to near extinction. Only 1,000−2,000 sea otters were believed to be living in the wild in 1929. Many people thought the species would soon become extinct. However, due to conservation efforts during the second half of the 20th century, sea otter populations recovered. The strengthening of the numbers of sea otters in the wild is often considered to be one of the greatest successes in marine conservation.
Despite their comeback, sea otters are sadly still an endangered species. This is due to predators and human impact on the sea otter's habitat.
Predators
Sea otters are threatened by other animals in the water and on land. Killer whales are one of the sea otter's main predators now that the seal and sea lion populations are declining. Sharks, sea lions, and eagles also pluck sea otters from the water while bears and coyotes will hunt them on land. Sea otters use their intelligence to outsmart some of their predators. They also use their sharp teeth to protect themselves.
What is the author's point of view on the reason the sea otter population recovered?
Sea otters learned to eat a more varied diet, saving themselves from extinction.
More people started owning sea otters as pets, which increased their number.
Laws were passed to shorten the number of months in sea otter hunting season.
Conservation efforts in the last half of the twentieth century saved sea otters.
Answer:
Conservation efforts in the last half of the twentieth century saved sea otters.

Do violent movies and video games cause people to be violent? Why or why not?
Answer:
Does exposure to violent movies or video games make kids more aggressive?
Although experts agree that no single factor can cause a nonviolent person to act aggressively, some studies (though not all) suggest that heavy exposure to violent media can be a risk factor for violent behavior. Children who are exposed to multiple risk factors -- including substance abuse, aggression, and conflict at home -- and also consume violent media are more likely to behave aggressively.
While exposure to violent media is only one of several risk factors, it is one that parents have control over. As parents, they can make a choice to consistently expose their kids to media that reflects their own personal values and say "no" to the stuff that doesn't. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends Common Sense Media as a resource to guide media selections.
There are so many great benefits to media and technology, including the potential to teach valuable skills. Doing research about TV shows, movies, or games before kids watch, play, and interact with them will go a long way in helping them avoid the bad stuff.

How are the inhabitants of the otherworld in "Sayadio in Spirit-land" similar to those in "Valhalla: Hall of the Chosen Slain"?
They both cannot communicate with anyone outside the spirit world.
They both are continually honored for their bravery in battle.
They both seem content and perfectly happy where they are.
They both long to return to their physical lives on earth.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
"Sayadio in Spirit-land" is an Iroquois legend. In this legend, a warrior named Sayadio goes to the spirit world to find the spirit of his sister and bring it back to the earth. When Sayadio arrived in the spirit world, everyone was dancing and feasting.
In the mythological story of "Valhalla: Hall of the Chosen Slain", the spirits of the great warrior were brought. Odin, the king of gods, would chose the mightiest of the might warriors' spirits to be brought in his kingdom. The spirit of the warriors rejoice being there.
Therefore, the similarity is that the spirits or the inhabitants of the otherworld in both the stories were content and happy.
Thus, option C is correct.
Answer:
They both seem content and perfectly happy where they are.
