Justin read the following information on the NASA website while researching for a report on Mars.
NASA’s senior Mars rover, Opportunity, is examining rocks at the edge of Endeavour Crater for signs that they may have been either transported by a flood or eroded in place by wind.
Those scenarios are among the possible explanations rover-team scientists are considering for features seen just outside the crater rim’s crest above “Perseverance Valley,” which is carved into the inner slope of the rim.
The team plans to drive Opportunity down Perseverance Valley after completing a “walkabout” survey of the area above it. The rover’s drives now use steering motors on only the rear wheels, following a temporary jam of the left-front wheel’s steering actuator this month. Opportunity has not used its right-front wheel’s steering actuator since 2005, the year after it landed on Mars.
The mission has been investigating sites on and near the western rim of Endeavour Crater since 2011. The crater is about 14 miles (22 kilometers) across.

Read the speech "Voluntourism: An Opportunity Too Good to be True" and consider the advertisement "The Opportunity of a Lifetime." Then, answer the question.

Voluntourism: An Opportunity Too Good to be True

A Speech to the Student Body of Evergreen High

[1] Picture this: It's Spring Break, and you fly off to some country where there's lush rainforests and beautiful, blue coastlines to explore. There's also people in need, so you decide to blend your vacation with volunteering. Volunteering as a tourist, or voluntourism, seems like a great way to explore new regions and help people at the same time. However, this "volunteer plus travel" experience can actually harm local communities. While many teens might view traveling and volunteering abroad as a worthwhile adventure, there are more genuine and effective ways to make a difference.

[2] Most would agree that volunteering in general is a worthy use of time. However, what if you found out the children you are "helping" are actually being kept in poor conditions so voluntourists will spend money to come to the local area? Dale Rolfe, a supporter of ethical voluntourism, explains the shocking reality that "Animal sanctuaries and orphanages are often manufactured for the voluntourist...encouraging a cycle of exploiting the very animals and children the volunteers are trying to help."

[3] Proponents of the "volunteer plus travel" experience also argue that traveling to new places builds character and is a valuable way to learn about different cultures. With voluntourism, however, participants often pursue experiences that are all about them. For example, they sign up to build a school for a gold star on their resume, but they have no real building skills and take jobs away from local construction workers (Schulten). Or, they arrive to teach English but instead take selfies with the locals. One world traveler and ethical voluntourist believes voluntourism "can perpetuate small minded views of the world by taking insulated, fake, and structured experiences and selling them as unabridged and eye opening" (Carlos). The voluntour experience is a mirage. The voluntourist's eyes are not opened to real life at the destination, and lasting change is not achieved.

[4] If you want a genuine experience where you can see a lasting impact, there are better options than voluntourism. You can volunteer in your local community. Give an hour every week to your town's animal rescue. Serve monthly dinners to the homeless. Be a reliable, positive influence on a child who needs a mentor. Studies show that volunteering and forming lasting relationships with those you help has a positive impact on your physical and emotional health. In fact, blood pressure is reduced, memory is improved, and rates of depression are reduced (Michaels).

[5] There is another reason to look into alternatives to voluntourism. Did you know the average "voluntour" travel package costs $3,400 (Rolfe)? Could that travel money be better spent? If the world's citizens are your passion, it could go to an international organization. If you care about education, your funds can be used to buy books for students in faraway lands. If you want villagers to have clean water, contribute funds to local efforts to dig wells. If you want to experience a different culture, travel to the country as a guest, and learn from the locals how you can best help them after you've returned home. But do not voluntour.

[6] In reality, there are better ways to make a difference. Voluntourism might appear to be an adventure that blends travel and helping others, but it does little except provide a costly, superficial experience that might actually do more harm than good. So, volunteer where you are most needed-at home, where you can stay to see the job through and form genuine, lasting relationships. Choose a beautiful coastline closer to home and send the travel money you saved to an international organization that will put it to good use. Whatever you do, don't turn someone else's hardship into your vacation.

"The Opportunity of a Lifetime"

A magazine advertisement with the title

Both texts (the speech and the advertisement) address voluntourism. However, each text has a different purpose, which is reflected by the details each writer chose to include. Consider the words and images used.

In a paragraph of 6-8 sentences, identify what each text emphasizes and explain how that emphasis reveals each author's position on voluntourism. Be sure to state each author's position and include evidence from both texts to support your analysis

I used to love hanging out by that pond. I thought it was
the greatest, most peaceful place in the world. But now it
just made me uneasy. There wasn't anything about that
pond now that didn't make me think of Jesse. You think a
place is just a place, but it's so much more than that. It's all
of the experiences and feelings you had at that place and
who you shared them with.
Which statement best analyzes how this passage incorporates personal
narrative into the societal commentary?
O A. The speaker shares his feelings about a location to illustrate how
a setting can't be separated from the memories made there.
B. The speaker shares his disdain for the pond he once loved to warn
others that feelings can change.
C. The speaker explores the consequences of his actions to show
that places are special because of the feelings associated with
them.
O D. The speaker reflects on the experiences shared with Jesse at the
pond to inspire others to make the most of each day.

Read the paragraph,
If you like fluffy bread, then you should be grateful for yeast. Without yeast, bread would be hard and flat. You can buy envelopes of yeast in
the grocery store. When you open the envelope, the yeast looks like a sandy substance, but you are actually looking at tiny, living, creatures, in its
dry state, the yeast is inactive, but if you add warm water to it, the yeast "wakes up," becoming active. When making bread, you add the active yeast
to a mixture that includes flour and sugar. The yeast eats the sugar and produces bubbles of gas called carbon dioxide, the same gps that people
breathe out. The bubbles make the dough rise so that your bread will be nice and fluffy after you bake it

Promptly at 8:00 a.m., the doorbell rang. Letting out another deep sigh, Paul pulled
himself up off the couch and walked to the door. Opening it, he discovered a small,
shriveled, white-haired man staring up at him with piercing blue eyes.
"Mr. Candor?" the man said in a voice that was much larger than he was.
"Uh, no, sir. My father isn't home right now. I can give you his work number if you'd
like to call him," replied Paul.
"Mr. Paul Candor is who I'm looking for," said the man. "Is that you?"
"Oh, yes, sir. That's me. You must be my tutor," said Paul, in a voice that didn't hide
his skepticism.
"Yes, I'm Mr. Valentine. Let's get to work."
Paul welcomed Mr. Valentine into the house and they sat at the kitchen table and
began to work.
When an author introduces a new character in a short story, he or she must quickly
establish the character's key traits. In this portion of the narrative, the author misses
an opportunity to develop Mr. Valentine. Rewrite this section of the story to better
establish Mr. Valentine as a complex character. (15 points)
