what viewpoint do jim and the slaveowner first have about the turtle in The People That Could Fly

Solar energy saves money on electric bills, and it also helps our power grid. On August 14, 2003, too many people were using electricity because it was a hot day. Suddenly, all the power went out across the Northeast United States and Canada, and 55 million people were suddenly in the dark! In New York City, people had to walk miles across bridges to get home because there were no trains or subways running. It was an expensive incident for the government and industry. But if we use more solar energy, we will put less pressure on the power grid. That means fewer blackouts.

What kind of evidence does the author use to support the claim that solar energy helps the power grid?

anecdotal
expert quotation
statistical
scientific

Be a Responsible Pet Owner

Many people are unaware of the effect that spaying and neutering has on their pets. By talking to a veterinarian, a pet owner can make an informed decision that will make quite an impact on their pet's life.

Some people think that their pet will be healthier if they do not spay or neuter them. However, studies show that animals who are spayed and neutered avoid becoming sick with certain kinds of cancer, infection from breeding with strays, and physical stress of birthing while either too young or too old. Also, it has been shown that pets who are spayed and neutered can live 30% longer than those who have not.

Other people worry that spaying or neutering their pet will affect their personality. Male pets are affected, becoming friendlier and better behaved instead fighting other pets or spraying their territory. Female pets seem less affected, but also prove to be less territorial and better behaved. Vets have said that the personality of a pet is more affected by the care and attention they receive from their owner than a spay or neuter.

Spaying and neutering is so effective and healthy for pets that it should be a law that all pet owners must follow. Experienced breeders and veterinarians are well-informed, but the average pet owner is not. If pet owners were better informed or even forced by law to spay and neuter their pets, there wouldn't be as many homeless animals on the streets.


What is one way that the author supports his argument?
A.
The author presents facts about pets who have and have not been spayed or neutered.
B.
The author shares a story about a friend whose pets were not neutered or spayed.
C.
The author presents facts and shares stories of his own experiences with pets.
D.
The author does not give any evidence to support his argument or the opposing side.

Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea.”

He went North, Best Beloved, and he found All-the-Elephant-there-was digging with his tusks and stamping with his feet in the nice new clean earth that had been made ready for him.

‘Kun?’ said All-the-Elephant-there-was, meaning, ‘Is this right?’

‘Payah kun,’ said the Eldest Magician, meaning, ‘That is quite right’; and he breathed upon the great rocks and lumps of earth that All-the-Elephant-there-was had thrown up, and they became the great Himalayan Mountains, and you can look them out on the map.

He went East, and he found All-the-Cow-there-was feeding in the field that had been made ready for her, and she licked her tongue round a whole forest at a time, and swallowed it and sat down to chew her cud.

‘Kun?’ said All-the-Cow-there-was.

‘Payah kun,’ said the Eldest Magician; and he breathed upon the bare patch where she had eaten, and upon the place where she had sat down, and one became the great Indian Desert, and the other became the Desert of Sahara, and you can look them out on the map.

He went West, and he found All-the-Beaver-there-was making a beaver-dam across the mouths of broad rivers that had been got ready for him.

‘Kun?’ said All-the-Beaver-there-was.

‘Payah kun,’ said the Eldest Magician; and he breathed upon the fallen trees and the still water, and they became the Everglades in Florida, and you may look them out on the map.

Then he went South and found All-the-Turtle-there-was scratching with his flippers in the sand that had been got ready for him, and the sand and the rocks whirled through the air and fell far off into the sea.

‘Kun?’ said All-the-Turtle-there-was.

‘Payah kun,’ said the Eldest Magician; and he breathed upon the sand and the rocks, where they had fallen in the sea, and they became the most beautiful islands of Borneo, Celebes, Sumatra, Java, and the rest of the Malay Archipelago, and you can look them out on the map!
