poizon [28]

Answer:

b. Sentence 6

Explanation:

I'm assuming that your question is asking about which sentence is proof that zoos are needed to protect animals, because that seems to be the main idea of this paragraph.

If that's the case, I think that the answer would be b. (Sentence 6) Many zoos have breeding programs that allow species to multiply and thrive. Those breeding programs would help protect animals (such as endangered species) because those programs would give those animals a safe habitat to live and expand their population once again so they don't die off.

hope this helps :)

How did Duckworth’s experiences as a teacher contribute to the text?
pogonyaev

Angela Duckworth was teaching math when she noticed something intriguing: The most successful students weren’t always the ones who displayed a natural aptitude; rather, they displayed something she came to think of as grit. Later, as a graduate student in psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, she defined the term — a combination of passion and perseverance for a singularly important goal — and created a tool to measure it: the “grit scale,” which predicted outcomes like who would graduate from West Point or win the National Spelling Bee. As a result of this work, Dr. Duckworth was named a MacArthur “genius” in 2013, and the notion of grit has become widely known. Her new book, “Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance,”

Mazyrski [523]

The author does not include a section exploring counterarguments or a conclusion.

Although there are many notable examples of successful writers who were known—at least in part—for their laziness, examples of people who were successful as a direct result of their diligence abound in a wide range of disciplines. Michael Jordan, for example, is widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players of all time. During his career, he was known for his unrelenting competitiveness and attention to detail. Among authors, Ray Bradbury was known for writing one short story every week—an astounding rate of production. And many other successful authors have set page quotas and strict schedules for themselves. So, while devaluing productivity may have worked for some, focusing intently on it has worked for many others.

I find my counterargument fairly compelling. The author’s argument mainly consists of anecdotal evidence. It would be compelling if all of the available evidence supported the central claim. But the amount of anecdotal evidence that does not support the claim weakens the author’s argument and strengthens my counterargument.
