Read the passage. Northfield is a model city in Westport County. Crime rates have dropped 28% in the last five years, and new bu

siness development has increased by 42% over the same period. There also has been significant growth in public services with the opening of our new Northfield Community Center and the current construction of Northfield Park. Unfortunately, Proposition S now threatens to undo all that Northfield has accomplished in recent years. Proposition S intends to fund public services throughout Westport County by taking 8.25% of all tax revenues away from city governments. Although most people believe that more public services are needed, Proposition S would only burden Northfield and other cities with strong local governments and business-friendly policies. These city governments would be required to pay for public services in areas where local politicians have failed to find a way to fund their own projects. Given the strength of Northfield’s economy, approximately $12.3 million dollars of tax revenue would be redirected toward county projects. Without this money in Northfield’s budget, many programs at our new community center will have to be cut. This would affect more than 40,000 citizens of Northfield, as well as 25,000 people who live outside our city and use the community center on a regular basis. The construction of Northfield Park, which also would be open to all county residents, would probably have to be put on hold. I am proud to join my fellow residents of Northfield in urging all citizens of Westport County to vote No on Proposition S in the upcoming election. What is good for Northfield is good for all of Westport County. Mr. Nelson Woo President of the Northfield City Council What is this letter’s call to action? to vote for politicians who support business-friendly policies to vote No on Proposition S to visit the Northfield Community Center to stop paying taxes

The correct answer is “to vote No on Proposition S to visit the Northfield Community Center”. In this letter, Mr. Nelson Woo (President of the Northfield City Council) makes <u>a call for action</u> in order to ask people not to vote on Proposition S to visit the Northfield Community Center. In the introduction of the letter, Nelson Woo presents the achievements in the past years in Northfield. Then, Woo narrates all the disadvantages of the Proposition S arguing that it “<em>threatens to undo all that Northfield has accomplished in recent years</em>”. Finally, Woo makes a call for action <u>not to vote on Proposition S in the upcoming election</u>.

Which phrase from this passage most clearly shows Crusoe's preoccupation
nalin [4]

Answer: C. sat always at my right hand.

Explanation:

Robinson Crusoe is the protagonist of Daniel Defoe's novel of the same name (1719).

In this particular excerpt, Crusoe describes his pets and their habits. His parrot Poll is the only one who talks to him, his dog always sits at his right hand, and the two cats sit on the two opposite sides of the table. The way he talks about his pets indicates that he is preoccupied with mastery. This is evident because his dog is always beside him, which is Crusoe's way to establish authority and have everything under control. He is the dog's master, and the dog must obey him.
