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

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.

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.

A. Vision
B. Rebellion
C. Sacrifice
D. Boldness

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.
