Which inference is best supported by the passage below: Mr. Ratignolle was one of those men who are called the salt of the earth. His cheerfulness was unbounded, and it was matched by his goodness of heart, his broad charity, and common sense. He and his wife spoke English with an accent which was only discernible through its un-English emphasis and a certain carefulness and deliberation. Edna's husband spoke English with no accent whatever. The Ratignolles understood each other perfectly. If ever the fusion of two human beings into one has been accomplished on this sphere it was surely in their union. As Edna seated herself at table with them she thought, "Better a dinner of herbs," though it did not take her long to discover that it was no dinner of herbs, but a delicious repast, simple, choice, and in every way satisfying. a)There was considerable social pressure in New Orleans at the time to speak English. b) Edna can’t help but compare the Ratignolles’ blissful marriage to her own. c) The Ratignolles’ marriage has never had any problems or strife. d) French cuisine is widely considered to be among the finest in the world.

Select the correct text in the passage. Aaliyah is writing an essay on how to break in a baseball glove. Which two signal words or phrases help to identify the text structure she chose to use? I started playing T-ball when I was three years old, and I’ve been playing ever since. For many years, I had a glove that I loved to use. It was broken in perfectly—not stiff at all. Unfortunately, the glove fell apart during a game; therefore, I found myself needing to break in a new one. I researched several methods and chose the best one for the job. Here’s the method that I found to work the best: After washing your hands, start applying glove oil all over your glove with a cloth. You need to really work on the area around the pocket and along the laces. Allow the glove to dry before going on to the next step. Place a baseball or softball in the pocket of the glove. Then wrap it with rubber bands to keep it in place. You still might end up with creases in your glove. To solve this problem, you should be careful not to wrap the glove too tight or allow the bands to be too loose.

Read the two versions of the beginning of Yasmin’s narrative. Version 1: I took a long, lingering look at the tremendous beauty that surrounded me. Nature abounded as far as the eye could see, and the only sounds to be heard were the peaceful murmurs of that which existed in the wilderness. As I sat there, my tent and sleeping bag the only signs of civilization for miles, my heart swelled with relief that I had decided to take this weekend camping trip. I could feel every muscle in my body gradually relaxing with every sight, every sound, every smell within this untouched slice of tranquility. It was hard to believe that anything could disrupt the serenity of this place . . . but I could not have been more wrong. Version 2: Exhausted, I took one last look around me. I had been camping for only two short days, but I could not wait to get home and recount the adventures of my short stay in peace and tranquility. Hoisting my backpack onto my back, I grabbed my canteen and began the long trek back to my car. The question was not which story I should tell, but rather which one I should tell first. What best describes the contrast between the narrative structures of Version 1 and Version 2? Version 1 uses chronological order, building up to the action. Version 2 starts with the conclusion to make readers curious about the beginning. Version 1 provides background information prior to relaying events. Version 2 begins with an exciting conflict. Version 1 begins with an exciting conflict. Version 2 starts with the conclusion to make readers curious about the beginning. Version 1 answers the readers’ questions.
