This question is missing the options. I've found the options online, and they are as follows:
[...] Which statement most accurately explains the structure of this passage?
A. The author builds up to the most important idea in the story, which is that the bean lives.
B. The author uses chronological order to show the history of the bean's experiences.
C. The author uses cause and effect to show that the tailor's repair causes the bean to have a black line.
D. The author uses problem and solution to show how the tailor solves the bean's problem of having exploded.
Answer:
The statement that best explains the structure of the passage is:
C. The author uses cause and effect to show that the tailor's repair causes the bean to have a black line.
Explanation:
We must read the full passage before we can choose the best answer. We might be tempted to choose the option that speaks of chronological order, since the author does use it to build the story in the proper sequence.<u> It is only in the end that we get to see the purpose of the passage. When the author says, "The bean thanked him most prettily, but as the tailor used black thread, all beans since then have a black seam," it is revealed that the passage is actually telling us the cause behind the black spot every bean has. The cause is the black thread used by the tailor to mend a bean that had exploded. The effect is the black spot itself. Therefore, the best option is letter C.</u>
A sunrise most definitely cannot be associated with either of those things, the sun is most often symbolic of something good or happy. Falling snow also does not create a sense of fear or anxiety, when thinking of snow I think of peace and quiet, serenity. Some might even feel happy or joywhen thinking about snow because it is most often associated with Christmas. I also think that an open field does not stir feelings of fear, that is unless you give details or descriptions to make it scary. I would say a setting with decaying trees best creates fear and anxiety. The word decay literally means " the state or process of rotting or decomposition". It is associated with death, and death is most often viewed as frightening and mysterious. Hope this helps .
They show that the batter doesn't overthink the situation, but the pitcher is being picky.
In the Batter's line he says that he just reacts in the moment. This shows that he does not spend a lot of time thinking about the situation. It also shows that he may not be smarter about the situation. It doesn't show the batter is not prepared or that he knows how important it is. The pitcher doesn't think the call to throw a slider is a good choice so he shakes it off. His exclamation that none of the pitches will work shows his frustration over the choices. He is being picky and can't seem to agree on the type of pitch to throw.
Answer: C

Essay claim: Requiring <em><u>voters</u></em> to <u><em>present picture</em></u> identification <u><em>reduces</em></u> voter participation.
<em><u>Many</u></em> people <u><em>lack</em></u> photo identification. Requiring <em><u>picture identification to vote would keep those without</u></em> it from voting. Elderly <em><u>people who no longer drive and people </u></em>who <em><u>live </u></em>in<em><u> low-income</u></em> areas often <em><u>lack</u></em> identification. They would be <em><u>unable</u></em> to vote. Mark Abernathy <u><em>argues</em></u>, "Requiring photo ID to vote <em><u>effectively</u></em> eliminates a <em><u>large group</u></em> of American voters. <em><u>However</u></em>, they are denied a basic <em><u>privilege given to all Americans over the age of 18</u></em>. A <em><u>part</u></em> of the population, not the entire population, <em><u>decides</u></em> elections" <em><u>" (page 820 of the article "Photo Identification Disenfranchisement").</u></em> Some <u><em>believe</em></u> this <em><u>isn't </u></em>true. Ria Olberson <em><u>of</u></em> Alabaster University <em><u>says</u></em>, "Few Americans <em><u>lack</u></em> a license. Even <em><u>an</u></em> expired or revoked license <em><u>counts as photo identification.</u></em> The<em><u> idea</u></em> that requiring <em><u>identification disenfranchises some Americans is </u></em>simply <em><u>false</u></em> " (page 101). Just just wrong! <em><u>Many people don't have licenses because they</u></em> don't need or <em><u>desire</u></em> them. Consider <em><u>city dwellers</u></em>. They <em><u>don't need</u></em> licenses: public transportation. <em><u>Many</u></em> of <em><u>these</u></em> people would <em><u>have</u></em> to <em><u>get</u></em> licenses in <em><u>order to participate in a process</u></em> <em><u>that they are entitled </u></em>to<em> </em>as <em><u>U.S.</u></em> citizens.
