If the creator of this PSA wanted to encourage kids to read more by featuring an important fact or statistic about the benefit o

f reading, which would be the best fact or statistic to add?
Research has found a direct link between the amount of time children read for pleasure and their academic reading achievement.

Statistics show that there are as many as 775 million adults who cannot read and write worldwide, 64 percent of whom are women.

It is estimated that only one-third of eighth graders and students entering high school are considered proficient in reading.

Students who read below grade level are twice as likely to drop out of high school than those who read at or above grade level.

The right answer is "Students who read below grade level are twice as likely to drop out of high school than those who read at or above grade level. "

The explanation for this answer to be considered the correct alternative is that the question asks to show which of the alternatives presents a fact or statistic about the benefit of the reading, thus, this is the only alterative, among those that were exposed, that presents a benefit of reading. This benefit is the high probability of completing high school that students who have a habit of reading have.

Butoxors [25]
If I were to create a poster that explains positive culture group interactions, I would split it into four different sections. In the first section, I would describe what a culture group is (a group with shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices). In this section, I would include images that reflect culture groups from different countries. In the second section, I would discuss the idea of knowledge of culture. In this section, I would explain that knowledge of my culture and the other person's culture is key to having a positive culture group interaction. I would also use images of a library, which is a place where knowledge is kept. In the third section, I would discuss needs and feelings of people involved in a culture group interaction. In this section, I would explain that it is important to remember the needs and feelings of each person involved in a culture group interaction. I would also include an image of two people talking. In the fourth section, I would have no words but rather one image of two people with their arms around each other. This would reflect that positive culture group interactions create friendships.

Justify your approval and disapproval of Tinashe's choice of institution in relation to the career he wants to follow
Montano1993 [528]

The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.  

Answer:

I approve of Tinashe making his own choice, disregarding his family's opinion because choosing a career should always be a decision based on personal abilities and interests. There´s no point in him becoming a language teacher if he´s not good at it and he doesn´t want to follow that path.

However, I think he might be confused as to what type of training he would need to become a plumber. Although it´s a skilled job, plumbing requires skills that are usually acquired through a plumbing apprenticeship that usually lasts around four years.  

Explanation:

The question refers to Tinashe, an 18-year-old Grade 12 student whose family wants him to go to university and become a language teacher, even though he does not do well in languages. What he want´s to do is go to the University of the Western Cape (UWC) to qualify as a plumber.
