The whale Shark also known as the largest fish in the world, is a very incredible creature! This giant fish has a size of 18 -33 feet and weighs about 41,000 lbs! The alien-like fish is grey with a white belly and dots all over its back. Most Whale Sharks are spotted because they want to be left alone. This animal is like a flat cone with eyes on opposite sides of their heads, and a long tail. That is my best way to describe them. They have over 300 teeth but don’t use them! Instead they use the filter feature and swim with their mouth open to suck up the little fish in its filter. The Whale Shark gives birth to about 300 live young and stay with them for about 2 years. This animal is indeed the biggest fish in the world and one of the most interesting!

The giant tortoise is endangered for too long! They have been hunted to almost extinction since the 1700 and the 1800’s. They were killed for meat and medicine. Predators eat the the eggs before they hatch making it much more difficult to keep them around. Habitat destruction is caused by people, because of us making more islands for ourselves especially on the island Santa Cruz. As a result the Giant Tortoise continues to be endangered.

The Sumatran Rhinos are surviving with only 80-30 left. The issue is that they don't have any way to protect themselves because most of their harm is caused by humans. One way we can protect them is by protecting their habitat by not building roads where they live. Another problem is that humans are settling where they live. We need to be fighting wildlife crime by reporting kills and reporting when they find someone killing the rhino. One thing that only humans can do to help is to NOT KILL THEM FOR THEIR HORNS! One of the biggest reasons there are not many left is because we are killing them for their horns. Sumatran Rhinos can't do anything about them being endangered because it's mostly humans but they are on the road to extinction.

Jameela is reading a magazine article. Read the following excerpt from the article:

Five days a week, Henry Zimmerman used to ride the elevator to the sixth floor and spend all day sitting at his computer. On weekends, he felt too tired to do more than watch TV.

At his doctor’s advice, Henry began exercising. At work, he took the stairs instead of the elevator. During his lunch break, he went for a run. On weekends, he played pickup basketball at the park. Slowly, he gained energy, his anxiety decreased, and his clothes fit him better. At his next doctor’s appointment, he found out his blood pressure had decreased to a healthy number.

Give Textual Evidence or Examples:

Write 3-4 paragraphs about How did women make a significant contribution to the American Revolutionary War?

What is a claim the author makes in "Globalization and Cultural Identity"?

1. American influence is spreading to other countries through international business.

2. Young people are returning to wearing traditional clothing as a way to rebel against the influence of big business.

3. Advancements in technology are the biggest threat to preserving traditional cultures and local businesses.

4. Older generations are responsible for the failure of younger generations to succeed in global economies.

The author supports the claim in Part A by stating that international businesses are always looking for new markets in which to sell their products and make a profit.

How well does this reason support the author's claim?

1. It is irrelevant because it fails to explain why countries are willing to allow international companies to compete in their economies.

2. It is effective because it explains a direct benefit of globalization to traditional cultures and economies.

3. It is ineffective because it contradicts the argument that globalization is damaging to traditional cultures.

4. It is somewhat effective because it explains why American companies want to expand to other countries.

#1 In this passage, which element does Mandela add to his description of the courage he needed to succeed in his mission?
In life, every man has twin obligations—obligations to his family, to his parents, to his wife and children; and he has an obligation to his people, his community, his country. In a civil and humane society, each man is able to fulfill those obligations according to his own inclinations and abilities. But in a country like South Africa, it was almost impossible for a man of my birth and color to fulfill both of those obligations. In South Africa, a man of color who attempted to live as a human being was punished and isolated. In South Africa, a man who tried to fulfill his duty to his people was inevitably ripped from his family and home and was forced to live a life apart, a twilight existence of secrecy and rebellion. I did not in the beginning choose to place my people above my family, but in attempting to serve my people, I found that I was prevented from serving my obligations as a son, a brother, a father, and a husband.
