Read the excerpts from "opening statements from John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon First Televised Debate."

Kennedy: I'm not satisfied to have fifty percent of our steel-mill capacity unused. I'm not satisfied when the United States had last year the lowest rate of economic growth of any major industrialized society in the world.

Nixon: We heard tonight, for example, the statement made that our growth in national product last year was the lowest of any industrial nation in the world. Now last year, of course, was 1958. That happened to be a recession year. But when we look at the growth of G.N.P. this year, a year of recovery, we find that it's six and nine-tenths percent and one of the highest in the world today.

Which statement best compares Nixon's and Kennedy's positions on U.S. economic growth?


(A) Kennedy argues that the U.S. government needs to prop up the steel industry; Nixon opposes intrusive government interference.

(B) Kennedy wants to slow economic growth to halt inflation; Nixon wants to encourage economic growth to make the United States more powerful.

(C) Kennedy believes that economic growth in the United States will decline without immediate government action; Nixon strongly disagrees.

(D) Kennedy argues that economic growth in the United States is sluggish; Nixon argues that the U.S. economy is growing robustly.

Answer:

The answer is D.

pls help 15 points Read the passage below from “The Unseen Values.”

However we think of it, it is a dawning period and one which—in its scope and potential—promises to dwarf much of what has gone before. Those who have given careful thought to the matter are convinced that while some caution is in order, the new era is not one to be approached with timidity, inhibited imagination or too much convention. Neither is there any point in trying to hold off the tempo of this oncoming age or, in any other way, to evade it.
What tone is represented in the author’s use of the words, “timidity,” “inhibited,” and “too much” in the passage above?

patriotic

PLZ AWNSER NOWTed and his father are going to the grocery store. They need to buy organic apples. Ted asks his father, "How are organic apples different from regular apples?" Ted's father replies, "Organic foods are foods that are grown without chemicals. Companies sometimes use chemicals called pesticides on foods. Pesticides keep bugs from eating foods. This keeps foods from being wasted. However, these chemicals aren't very good for people." Ted then asks, "How do I know an organic food from one that isn't?" His father continues, "Packaged foods like candy bars, frozen products, and even dried fruit are often not organic. Companies have to tell you if a product is organic. They do this by putting a label or sticker on it. But at home, it's easy. For instance, a tomato from Mom's garden is organic. She waters her plants regularly. But she doesn't use plant food or anything else." Question Based on the passage, which is an example of an organic food? Answer options with 4 options 1. cherries from a local orchard that uses pesticides 2. a chocolate bar that comes from a vending machine 3. frozen peas from the grocery store that have no label 4. a cucumber from a garden that has only been watered
