Answer :

The character of this passage from "A Shield" helps indicate to the reader that this modern translation was originally an Old English poem. Phrases like "sated in battle-play" and "weary of weapons" were used in old English but are not used in modern English literature. Such phrases help the reader to understand that the passage has been translated from an Old English poem.

Read the passage from the Houston Chronicle about air quality in Houston in 2019. “I’m surprised and disturbed that Houston’s air quality worsened in this year’s [American Lung Association ‘State of the Air’] report,” said Luke Metzger, director of Environment Texas. “The trend since 1999 had been one of steady progress and instead now it seems we are backtracking and that’s bad news particularly for the hundreds of thousands of people who have asthma or other vulnerable populations like senior citizens. . . .”

Current models estimate that more than 60 percent of ozone pollution is from cars, according to Raun, and to address that, the city is trying to encourage practices such as the use of mass transit and transitioning to fuel-efficient or low-emission vehicles.

How is Houston trying to combat increasing ozone pollution?

by raising taxes on vulnerable populations

by increasing access to health care

by encouraging use of mass transit

by prohibiting the sale of new cars
