The "Rainy Rain Forest" and "The Yellowstone National Park" both discussed the need for water in a growing environment. Use the information from the articles to explain the importance of water in different environments. Use evidence from both texts to support your ideas.

From the headlines, you'd think black holes were beasts with endless appetites, lying in wait for the next meal. By some reports they are "runaway," out-of-control "predators" that "feed" on galaxies, only to "belch" and "spit out" what they don't eat. They "lurk" in the shadows, "mangling" stars and "gobbling" them up. In short, they have a nasty reputation for being monsters "gone mad."

#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

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. Most of the time he was anxious, and he was frustrated that his clothes were tight. In addition, his doctor informed him that he had high blood pressure, which could lead to heart trouble.
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.

Which statement describes the relationship between the two paragraphs in this excerpt?
A. The first paragraph describes the first step in Henry’s lifestyle change, and the second paragraph presents the next step.
B. The first paragraph describes the cause of Henry’s inactive lifestyle, and the second paragraph explains the effect of the inactive lifestyle.
C. The first paragraph describes the problem—Henry’s inactive lifestyle—and the second paragraph suggests how an active lifestyle might solve Henry’s problem.
D. The first paragraph describes how Henry felt during his inactive lifestyle, and the second paragraph contrasts that experience with the experience of his active lifestyle.

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

Mark Twain once listened to the complaints of an old riverboat pilot who was having trouble making the switch from sail to steam. The old pilot wanted no part of the newfangled steam contraptions. "Maybe so," replied Twain, "but when it's steamboat time, you steam.”
How does the author’s reference to Mark Twain shift the tone of the last section?

The author refers to a complaining captain to indicate an angry tone.
The author includes facts to indicate a knowledgeable tone.
The author uses a shared experience to create a sentimental tone.
The author mentions something old to signify a wise tone.

Where the Red Fern Grows traces Billy’s personal growth and maturity. What character traits does Billy demonstrate and how does he display them?
Give Textual Evidence or Examples:

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.
