Hi. Did you forget to say that this question is about "Court Rejects New York City's Portion Cap for Sugary Drinks" by Dr. Lisa Firestone
Answer:
According to the text, in the last 50 or 60 years, people's expectations regarding food and drink portions have increased enormously.
Explanation:
The text reflects on the size of the cups of sugary drinks that are sold in the country. For the author and other experts on the subject, American cups are too large and contribute directly to the degradation of citizens' health, in addition to contributing to the increase in obesity cases.
The author states that "In the 1950s, the soda at McDonald's was 7 ounces; today, the company sells a quart-size soda nearly five times larger than its original size" showing that over time, even with the most in-depth knowledge on healthy foods, Americans' expectations of food and drink portions have increased dramatically.

Clinton gave the silver ball to Daniel Taylor, a young officer, promising that Taylor would be promoted if he got the message to Burgoyne. If he were captured, he was to swallow the ball. Because it was made of silver, it could not harm him.

But what he didn't know was that the smiling soldiers were Americans, wearing uniforms swiped from a British ship.

B. free verse
Explanation:
Open form, also referred to as free verse, does not follow a fixed pattern of rhyme, rhythm, or line length. It allows the poet flexibility in how the poem is composed.
Other Answers:
Lyric, narrative, and descriptive are all poetic styles, so when it comes to this question, options C, D, and E can be eliminated because it is asking for the form.
The lyric style expresses the speaker's feelings (ex: odes, elegies, sonnets).The narrative style tells a story and includes elements of plot, such as exposition, climax, and resolution (ex: epics, ballads).The descriptive style describes the subject of the poem in detail and follows a narrative.Blank verse is another poetic form and is written in non-rhyming lines of iambic pentameter.

"The Railway Train" was tough to understand at first. The meanings of some words, such as supercilious and Boanerges, weren’t clear. And some of the metaphorical references, such as the man-made creature stopping at its stable door, didn’t make sense right away. Reading the sample answers helped clear up some confusion. Now it’s clear that the poem characterizes the train in a positive light, even though it’s made to seem like a scary, wild being. The train itself is also symbolic of technological progress during the Industrial Revolution.

What is speech?Speech is a human vocal communication using language. Each language uses phonetic combinations of vowel and consonant sounds that form the sound of its words (that is, all English words sound different from all French words, even if they are the same word, e.g., "role" or "hotel"), and using those words in their semantic character as words in the lexicon of a language according to the syntactic constraints that govern lexical words' function in a sentence.
In speaking, speakers perform many different intentional speech acts, e.g., informing, declaring, asking, persuading, directing, and can use enunciation, intonation, degrees of loudness, tempo, and other non-representational or paralinguistic aspects of vocalization to convey meaning.

Bright star! would I were steadfast as thou art—
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like Nature's patient, sleepless Eremite,
The moving waters at their priest-like task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors—
No—yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,[xxii]
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender taken breath,
And so live ever—or else swoon to death.

Answer:
This question is incomplete, but I will answer it anyway in a way that you can understand.
Explanation:
A speaker has the responsibility to evaluate the sources he is using for his speech given that he is providing information, and such information cannot be wrong. Especially if the speaker is using this data to support his ideas, emphasize or clarify them, and providing false data or not checking the sources of his speech can end in his speech being ruined, since he will not be able to convince his audience or he will lose his credibility.

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”
I went north—I did not try to hide myself. When a god or a demon saw me, then I would die, but meanwhile I was no longer afraid. My hunger for knowledge burned in me—there was so much that I could not understand. After a while, I knew that my belly was hungry. I could have hunted for my meat, but I did not hunt. It is known that the gods did not hunt as we do—they got their food from enchanted boxes and jars. Sometimes these are still found in the Dead Places—once, when I was a child and foolish, I opened such a jar and tasted it and found the food sweet. But my father found out and punished me for it strictly, for, often, that food is death. Now, though, I had long gone past what was forbidden, and I entered the likeliest towers, looking for the food of the gods.
Which sentence from the passage supports the theme that breaking the rules may be necessary for growth?
“When a god or a demon saw me, then I would die, but meanwhile I was no longer afraid.”
“My hunger for knowledge burned in me—there was so much that I could not understand.”
“But my father found out and punished me for it strictly, for, often, that food is death.”
“I had long gone past what was forbidden, and I entered the likeliest towers, looking for the food of the gods.”
The sentence that shows that breaking the rules might be necessary for growth is;
“I had long gone past what was forbidden, and I entered the likeliest towers, looking for the food of the gods.”In this passage, the writer recalls how he was punished by his father when he ate from the forbidden things in the temple.
Now, that he had grown past being punished by his father for breaking the rules, he was able to assess the "likeliest" towers and even search for the gods' food.
This shows that sometimes it might be necessary to break the status quo if we will achieve great things. A good example of this is found in the movement termed, Civil Disobedience.
This is a process whereby people break laws in a manner that is free from violence to register their complaints about something that is wrong with a government.
Their disobedience is for the greater good, and without it, they might not achieve breakthroughs.
