Read this excerpt from "A Student's Guide to Global Climate Change."

Heat waves are uncomfortable for everyone, but for infants and young children, the elderly, and people who are already sick, they can be especially dangerous. Extreme heat can cause illnesses such as heat cramps, heat stroke, and even death. A 2003 heat wave in Europe caused about 50,000 deaths, and a 1995 heat wave in Chicago caused more than 600 deaths. In fact, heat waves cause more deaths in the United States every year than hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and earthquakes combined.

What action would a reader be most likely to take after reading this excerpt?

A. conserve water by taking shorter showers
B. limit time outdoors during heat advisories
C. use fans instead of air conditioning to cool off

Read the sentence “It is but due to the sex, however, to state that their impropriety was professional, and it was only in such easily established standards of evil that Poker Flat ventured to sit in judgment". How is the phrase “To state that their impropriety was professional” an example of euphemism.

Answers

Answer: This statement can be considered blunt or rather rude, not only that, but the topic is somewhat of an unpleasant one. Since it would be rather rude or blunt, terms like impropriety and professional were used, to keep the subject and discussion civil.

Explanation: A euphemism is a mild or indirect word or expression substituted for one considered to be too harsh or blunt when referring to something unpleasant or embarrassing.

Explanation:

Summarize: Screech! When a driver pushes on the brake pedal, it starts a process that causes the vehicle to stop. You literally trust braking systems with your life every time you get into a vehicle or cross a busy intersection, but how does this process work? It begins when the pedal is pushed. At this moment brake fluid is released into the area where the braking mechanisms are located. As the fluid collects, leverage is created, which causes a friction to be applied. If the braking system is functioning properly, this friction will create a force that will cause the wheels to stop and allow you to reach your destination safely.

Answers

Pushing on a break pedal causes the vehicle to stop. When the pedal is pushed a break fluid is released into the breaking mechanism. The fluid collects and leverage is created, causing friction. A well functioning breaking system will create a force to stop the wheels safety at your destination.

C. To narrate an incident using description and humor.

Explanation:

In the given passage, the narrator talks about the 'agreement' she had with her mother. The mother had promised to buy any candies that the narrator gets from school, which is the basis of how she (the narrator) gets the money.

And in the mother's statement that she wouldn't "have to buy Halloween candy that year" shows the hilarious side of the whole event. Moreover, the narrator also used descriptive imagery when mentioning the types of candies she got from the school, "three pixie sticks . . . one roll of smarties . . . three peppermints . . . a lollypop . . . one tootsie roll". These details give us more insight into the things/ candies acquired by the narrator.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Read this excerpt from "A Student's Guide to Global Climate Change."

As the Earth gets warmer, plants and animals that need to live in cold places, like on mountaintops or in the Arctic, might not have a suitable place to live. If the Earth keeps getting warmer, up to one-fourth of all the plants and animals on Earth could become extinct within 100 years. Every plant and animal plays a role in the ecosystem (for example, as a source of food, a predator, a pollinator, a source of shelter), so losing one species can affect many others.

What can people do about it?
Just like people, plants and animals will have to adapt to climate change. Many types of birds in North America are already migrating further north as the temperature warms. People can help these animals adapt by protecting and preserving their habitats.

Based on the excerpt, what conclusion can be drawn about endangered species?

Humans cannot help species that are already endangered.
Humans cannot protect the habitats of endangered species.
Humans can solve all problems that endangered species face.

Which of the following would make a

A. Many students struggle with taking exams in school.
B. Exams show students' ability to take tests instead of

C. Don't school exams just show how well students can
take a test rather than what they really know?
D. State tests are often a requirement in order to ensure
state and federal funding for education.

Answers

Answer:

I would say

"B. Exams show students' ability to take tests instead of their knowledge, so we should eliminate exams."

Explanation:

"A. Many students struggle with taking exams in school."  < This is not very elaborate, and is not a valid reason to eliminate testing.

"C. Don't school exams just show how well students can take a test rather than what they really know?"  < This answer is informal, and is formatted as a question rather than a statement.

"D. State tests are often a requirement in order to ensure state and federal funding for education."  < This is a good answer, with formal writing and a statement format, however, it is contradictory to the topic, and suggests that testing in schools should not be eliminated.

Option 'B' tells us why exams are unnecessary using formal writing and a statement format.

Having an open fire is an enjoyable part of many camping experiences. The smell of woodsmoke and the pop and hiss of burning wood in a campfire brightens any night out in the woods, in the mountains, or on the beach. But make sure that you control your fire, and not the other way around!

Before starting your fire, know the local rules. Each park has its own rules about where and when you can have a campfire. Ask at the visitor center or contact the park before you visit, so you know any relevant rules.

The excerpt is from a memoir because
A. it introduces fictional characters.
B. it reveals a futuristic narrative.
C. it contains objective researched facts.
D. it shares the writer’s emotional responses.

Answers

Answer:

D is the best answer, a memoir is a personal account so it would have emotional responses

Answer:

D. it shares the writer’s emotional responses.

Explanation:

A memoir is "a historical account or biography written from personal knowledge or special sources."

A historical count does not include fictional characters, so (A) is wrong.

A historical count has already occurred, and is not in the future, so (B) is wrong.

The excerpt does not contain objective researched facts, so (C) is wrong.

Furthermore, a memoir is written using personal knowledge, so (D) makes sense as it include emotional responses, a type of personal knowledge.
