Passage 2: Excerpt from School Bus Ads Bring Needed Revenue to Area Districts
18 School buses are carrying more than students these days.



19 The vehicles sport fancy advertisements for local businesses and events.



20 It's part of the effort for school districts to make money in these budget-strapped times.



21 And it is paying off.


22 Lewis-Palmer School District 38 made about $8,000 in its first effort last year with eight advertisers and 11 buses. This year, it is expanding.


23 "Ultimately we hope to have advertisements on every bus to maximize our income," said Robin Adair, D-38 spokeswoman. The district, which has had $11 million in cuts in recent years, is seeking a $4.5 tax increase in the November election.


24 D-38 has 56 buses that collectively travel more than a half million miles a year. That could be a lot of bang for the advertising buck, and a nice amount of change for district coffers. Like Lewis-Palmer, most districts that allow advertising on their buses choose to put the money in general funds to help with such things as higher fuel and utility expenses and increased contributions to pension funds and student activities.

25 Other Pikes Peak districts that use their buses as rolling billboards are Colorado Springs School District 11 and Falcon School District 49.


26 Some of the advertisements on Lewis-Palmer buses include dentists, restaurants, insurance agents, a gymnasium, PTA's and the district's own programs.


27 A.B. Tellez, owner of Rosie's Diner in Monument, said he signed up for two buses, one middle school that features kid's meals and shakes, and an elementary bus that features, of course, chicken nuggets. "Those buses drive everywhere. It's awesome marketing. But there is more to it than that. It's being part of the community, helping out the schools. They need funds. I thought it was neat to use dollars to support the community as well as the community supporting us."


28 The districts report that the ads are approved by administrators before they are placed on the buses. There are none inside the buses to entice kids. The products must be child friendly -- no alcohol, tobacco, gaming or distasteful subjects. They don't usually allow advertising from other schools that might compete with them for students.


29 Colorado in 1997 was the first state to allow school-bus advertising.


(the question)
Which quote from Passage 2 provides evidence that many school districts are dealing with budgetary concerns?


A)"Lewis-Palmer School District 38 made about $8,000 in its first effort last year with eight advertisers and 11 buses." (paragraph 22)


B)“That could be a lot of bang for the advertising buck, and a nice amount of change for district coffers.” (paragraph 24)


C)“Like Lewis-Palmer, most districts that allow advertising on their buses choose to put the money in general funds to help with such things as higher fuel and utility expenses…” (paragraph 24)


D)“Some of the advertisements on Lewis-Palmer buses include dentists, restaurants, insurance agents, a gymnasium, PTA’s and the district's own programs.” (paragraph 26)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C because they're talking about how the buses' advertising is put into general funds like "higher fuel" and "utility expenses," they wouldn't need that if they were financially stable lol

The concerns about sending people to Mars are definitely worth considering. For one thing, the mission will cost billions of dollars. This would be a huge additional cost at a time when national debts continue to skyrocket. Also, that money could help fix problems here on Earth.

Mars may have valuable resources. The Earth’s resources are already starting to dwindle, and our population continues to grow. Finding resources on Mars could provide much-needed relief for the overstressed ecosystems of Earth.

What is the best way to connect the paragraphs?

deleting the last sentence of the first paragraph
deleting the first sentence of the second paragraph
adding a transition at the beginning of the second paragraph
adding another sentence with evidence at the end of the first paragraph

Answers

Deleting the first sentence on the second paragraph

The best way to connect the paragraphs is by adding a transition at the beginning of the second paragraph to smoothly introduce the new topic.

The best way to connect the paragraphs would be to introduce a transition at the start of the second paragraph. The reader would be smoothly transitioned from the worry about the expense of sending people to Mars to the potential advantages of finding valuable resources there with the use of a transitional phrase like "Furthermore" or "In addition."

The idea that the exploration of Mars may not only incur significant costs but also provide potential solutions to the Earth's declining resources and expanding population is demonstrated by this transition, which helps create a logical flow between the ideas. By using a transition, the author can lead readers through the related ideas and emphasize how crucial it is to take into account both sides of the Mars mission debate.

Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman.

Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907:

My first impressions of the New World will always remain etched in my memory, particularly that hazy October morning when I first saw Ellis Island. The steamer Florida, fourteen days out of Naples, filled to capacity with 1600 natives of Italy, had weathered one of the worst storms in our captain's memory; and glad we were, both children and grown-ups, to leave the open sea and come at last through the Narrows into the Bay.

My mother, my stepfather, my brother Giuseppe, and my two sisters, Liberta and Helvetia, all of us together, happy that we had come through the storm safely, clustered on the foredeck for fear of separation and looked with wonder on this miraculous land of our dreams.

The purpose of this excerpt is to help readers understand

the excitement and relief immigrants felt upon arriving in America.
that the Narrows into the Bay was a very dangerous passage.
that Italian children were very sad after leaving their home country.
the weather the immigrants experienced on that day in October 1907.

An artist is a person engaged in an activity related to creating art, practicing the arts, or demonstrating an art. The common usage in both everyday speech and academic discourse is a practitioner in the visual arts only. The term is often used in the entertainment business, especially in a business context, for musicians and other performers (less often for actors). "Artiste" (the French for artist) is a variant used in English only in this context; this use has become rare. Use of the term to describe writers, for example, is valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like criticism.

D)by comparing the land with places the people had lived before


(the paragrahg)
3 Today the land is silent, save for the wind rustling the trees and the song of a canyon wren. But for the early people of Mesa Verde, the land was everything. It provided water, soil for crops, plants and animals for food, stone and wood for houses and tools, clay for pottery, and fiber for clothing and baskets. The land was also significant because topography determined where and how people moved and communicated.

Passage 2: "Columbus"

Behind him lay the gray Azores,



Behind the Gates of Hercules;



Before him not the ghost of shores;



Before him only shoreless seas.



5 The good mate said: "Now must we pray,



For lo! the very stars are gone.



Brave Adm'r'l, speak; what shall I say?"



"Why, say, 'Sail on! sail on! and on!'" "My men grow mutinous day by day;



10 My men grow ghastly, wan and weak."



The stout mate thought of home; a spray



Of salt wave washed his swarthy cheek.



"What shall I say, brave Adm'r'l, say,



If we sight naught but seas at dawn?"



15 "Why, you shall say at break of day:



'Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!'"



They sailed and sailed, as winds might blow,



Until at last the blanched mate said:



"Why, now not even God would know



20 Should I and all my men fall dead.



These very winds forget their way,



For God from these dread seas is gone.


Now speak, brave Adm'r'l, speak and say"-



He said: "Sail on! sail on! and on!"


25 They sailed. They sailed. Then spake the mate:



"This mad sea shows his teeth to-night.



He curls his lip, he lies in wait,



He lifts his teeth, as if to bite!



Brave Adm'r'l, say but one good word:



30 What shall we do when hope is gone?"



The words leapt like a leaping sword:



"Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!"



Then, pale and worn, he kept his deck,



And peered through darkness. Ah, that night



35 Of all dark nights! And then a speck-


A light! A light! At last a light!



It grew, a starlit flag unfurled!



It grew to be Time's burst of dawn.



He gained a world; he gave that world
