Question 25 of 28
Your responses should include the following to receive the points in parentheses:
Respond in a paragraph.
Answer is written in complete sentences.
War and Nazism influenced many European writers. Look at selections by Milosz and Ionesco for evidence of such influences.
In a fully-developed paragraph, compare the perspectives these writers bring to the subjects they write about.

Nazism and World War ll are the darkest phases in human history. This phase has influenced many European writers.

Czeslaw Milosz wa also influenced by Nazism and wrote a poem named "And Yet the Books" that addresses the subject of death. Since the author employs strong imagery to explain death, the poem has a somber and almost gloomy tone. When they consider what the world will look like once they are gone, this becomes more obvious.

On the other hand, Eugene Ionesco's "Rhinoceros" is a story, not a poem. Because the characters are terrified of rhinoceroses and don't want to transform into them, "Rhinoceros" has a frightening tone throughout. In contrast to "And Yet the Books," which is unforgettable and realistic, "Rhinoceros" is a science fiction story with incidents that are unimaginable in real life.

Hope this helped :)

Read the argument excerpt. Owning a saltwater aquarium is a popular hobby. The exotic beauty of fish for these miniature habitats attracts many people to the pastime. One unusual addition is the lionfish—a particularly striking species with red-and-white stripes, flowy fins, and a series of long spines down its back. Lionfish are native to the Indo-Pacific region where they are a top predator in the coral reefs of tropical waters. Choosing a lionfish for a saltwater aquarium should be a careful decision, though. Some people purchase this unique fish, and then, when they grow tired of the work needed to maintain an aquarium, set the fish free. This action has been a notably distressing problem off Florida and up the Atlantic Coast. Lionfish are a novel species in this region and other animals are confused by their look and behavior. As a result, smaller fish and invertebrates become easy prey for the lionfish. The total irresponsibility of saltwater fish owners has disturbed the ecological balance in the Atlantic. Therefore, aquarium owners who decide to have lionfish or other saltwater fish species are a main cause for environmental damage in the region. There should be immediate and strict regulation on the aquarium fish industry. Which choice best explains the effect of the author’s faulty reasoning? The audience will be inclined to dismiss the claim that choosing fish for an aquarium should be a careful decision. The audience will be confused by the conflicting evidence arguing that saltwater fish as unique and beautiful pets. The audience will be convinced that many aquarium owners destroy the environment. The audience will be interested in reading more about the fish for saltwater aquariums

Earthships

­­­­­What is an earthship?

An earthshi­­­p is a home designed to make use of recycled materials and increase energy conservation. Ideally, by living in an earthship, a person can have a home that is “off the grid.” People who live in earthships do not depend on outside sources for electricity, food, or water. Building an earthship may be an attractive choice for those who want to use fewer of our planet’s non-renewable resources.

The Foundation

First, the foundation is built by firmly packing dirt inside recycled tires. Then, the tires are placed in a pyramid-like stack going as high as needed. Next, cement is spread and smoothed between the tires to create a solid wall. When this is finished, the walls are sealed with a protective coating and painted. Some interior walls are built using recycled cans and cement, also sealed with a protective coating.

Solar Energy

Solar panels give enough stored energy in batteries to provide electricity for appliances, lighting, and electronics. However, solar-powered batteries hold about one-third the charge of energy used in a regular household wired for electricity. This means that people either buy more batteries or intend to use less electricity than a conventional household. Ideally, earthships are built in places where there is an abundance of sunshine year-round.

Floor-to-ceiling windows on an earthship’s south wall also allow plenty of sunlight. It is important that no trees block the light on this side of the house. The sunlight shines directly onto a brick floor, which then absorbs the heat. This provides enough warmth to maintain a comfortable temperature in the house for the rest of the day. This method of heating the home is called passive solar. Most earthships also have either a wood stove or a heater that uses propane, a type of natural gas. These heat sources are useful on cloudy days. During the summer, the combination of the cool temperature of the earth beneath the floor plus the thick walls can keep the house comfortable without the use of air-conditioning.

Recycled Water

Gutters on the roof collect rainwater that then trickles down into large storage barrels. The water is used for taking showers, doing dishes, and flushing the toilet. It is also filtered for drinking. People sometimes build a greenhouse to grow their own food. Water that has been used for dishwashing or showers can be saved if the soaps are chemical-free. This recycled “gray” water can be used yet again to water the plants in the greenhouse.

Potential Problems

Earthships have been around since the 1970s. Now, ­­long-term studies have revealed some problems. For one, without sufficient sunlight during the winter, large amounts of natural gas known as propane and/or wood are used to heat the home. Propane use can be costly, and unless one has planned far ahead, a wood supply can be quickly depleted.

Another problem is that tires used in the foundation walls can, after a long period of time, begin to crack, releasing a toxic gas that has built up over time in the walls. The use of cement, which is a porous material with many small holes and spaces, allows the gases to leak into the air. The type of gas emitted is not detectable by smell but can make people sick. To address this problem, the walls of the home needs to be resealed every year.

Cost can also be a significant challenge. Some earthship building companies claim that it is far cheaper to build an earthship because only recycled materials are used. Also, a contractor’s license or training is not needed to build one. This, though, is true if it is built 100% by the owner, which could take years to complete. Additionally, the cement, plumbing, and electrical components, as well as the cost of installing solar panels, can be expensive. Just as with the construction of a conventional home, proper permits are often needed to build an earthship.

There are clear advantages and disadvantages to these unique homes. As technology improves and new solutions are discovered, earthships may continue to be a wise way to live sustainably using minimal resources.

Question
Based on the information in "Earthships," what is the definition of propane?
A: a porous material

B: a type of natural gas

C: filtered drinking water

Sanjay's class was studying the water cycle. Their teacher asked them: "Where in the room will the most evaporation take place?" In small groups the children collected the following materials: ~zip lock bag ~soil ~water in a spray bottle ~tape Each group added soil to fill the bottom 1/4 of the bag. Next they sprayed the soil with water. They sealed the bags and taped them in a sunny window. The next day, at 11:00 am, the students checked their bags. Here is a photograph of one of the bags; the student models all looked similar. Is this a fair test? Explain. A) No. The students did know if any evaporation took place. B) Yes. All of the students followed the same steps when setting up their model. C) No. The students should tape bags in different places to get different temperatures. D) Yes. The students could see that the water in the soil evaporated and then condensed on the bag.

Crunch! The back of Mrs. Miller’s van crumpled slightly and folded into ripples.

Jana slowly unfastened her seat belt and stepped out of the car. She thought to herself, "How could I not have seen Mrs. Miller’s van? Out of all the vehicles in this parking lot, I had to back into my Spanish teacher’s?”

Mrs. Miller approached Jana in the parking lot. Luckily, she had not been in the van but was just leaving the building.

"Oh no! Jana, what happened?” asked Mrs. Miller as she stared at the twisted metal on her van.

"I am so sorry, Mrs. Miller. I promise I didn’t see your van!” pleaded Jana.

"Well, these things happen sometimes,” answered Mrs. Miller. "I know it was an honest mistake. However, you will need to call your insurance company because I need to have this fixed right away!”
