"What are you doing, Rico?" Jake asked as he sat down next to his friend at the cafeteria table. Rico slammed his book closed and shook his head at Jake. "I'm supposed to be reading this book, but it's so boring! Why do I need to know about this stuff anyway?" Rico complained as he opened his can of soda. Jake looked at Rico's book with interest. "What are you reading about?" Jake asked. Rico shoved the book across the table at his friend. "Some person named Mae…Jenkins? Mae…Jennings? I have no idea," Rico replied. He unwrapped his sandwich and took a big bite. "Mae Jemison? She's not boring—she's cool!" Jake exclaimed as he flipped through Rico's book. Rico stared at his friend in disbelief. "It's true, Rico. I did a report on her in science class." "Sure, Jake, if you say so," he groaned. "Now, if only you had to do this paper instead of me…." "Look, Rico," Jake said as he returned Rico's book. "Mae Jemison was an astronaut with NASA, and she was the first African American woman to go into space. She grew up in Chicago, just like you and me. She served in the Peace Corps in Africa. She was even in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation!" Rico's eyes almost bugged out of his head. "Really?" he said as he opened his book and started reading. "Maybe I'll give this book another try after all!" Jake and Rico's relationship in this passage is most similar to the relationship between A:a doctor and a patient. B:a police officer and a suspect. C:a teacher and a student. D:a parent and a child.

6. Identify the conclusion (inferential claim) to the following argument:
[1] Japanese companies run more efficiently and effectively since [2] they make group
decisions and [3] do not rely on any single individual decision.
A. Statement (1)
B. Statement [2]
C. Statement [3]

Answers

Answer:

C. Statement [3]

Explanation:

Statement 3 is the inferential statement in the argument, because from the fact that the Japanese companies make group decisions (which is the main reason given for the efficiency of Japanese companies), it is inferred, by logic,  that the Japanese companies do not rely on single individual decisions.

Miranda sat in the high school computer lab typing like mad. It was 8:30 a.m., and her 1,000-word report on The Catcher in the Rye was due at 9:00. For the past hour, she had been flipping through the ratty pages of the old paperback trying to discern the major plot points and then typing out a few sentences that she hoped were logical. The only reason she was able to get into the lab that early was because she was one of Mrs. Brody’s assistants, but a couple of hours in the lab didn’t make up for weeks of zoning out in English class.

Miranda could kick herself, but she was too busy skimming through her notes and attempting to remember something—anything!—that Mr. Giuffreda had talked about. Mr. Giuffreda was a tough grader, and Miranda did not work well under pressure—not a great combination. On top of all that, Miranda could hear her mother’s voice in her head: “One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team.” Miranda failed to see the relationship between soccer and book reports, but she also knew her mother wasn’t kidding. When she had slacked off in geometry last semester, her mother had taken away her cell phone for a month. Another time, when Miranda had missed her curfew—again and again—she had gotten grounded for two weeks.

Still typing, Miranda thought about Mr. Giuffreda. He expected nothing but the best—and then some. He never gave extensions unless someone had a family emergency, and he had a terrible habit of brushing off even the most creative excuses. Anyway, Miranda didn’t need an extra day or two. She needed time to read the entire novel again. Miranda ran a word count—361. She checked her watch—8:45. She flipped to the end of the book trying desperately to remember the ending, but nothing was coming to her. Why hadn’t she paid attention?

At 8:55, she had a whopping, miraculous 402 words. The homeroom bell had rung five minutes ago, and students were filing into the lab for first period. Miranda’s fingers were still flying, but by 8:59, Mrs. Brody asked Miranda to leave so she could start class on time. Miranda saved her work on her USB drive, collected her pages from the printer, and slung her knapsack over her shoulder. Then she trudged down the hall to Mr. Giuffreda’s class as slowly as possible, even though she knew she would be late and would probably get detention.
What can be inferred from the passage?


A.

Miranda will no longer be Mrs. Brody's assistant.

B.

Miranda did not finish her book report on time.

C.

Miranda usually does a lot better in English class.

D.

Miranda will ask Mr. Giuffreda for an extension.

Before tryouts began, the boys seemed puzzled. Where, they wondered, was the coach? Luma was right in front of them, but a woman soccer coach was a strange sight to young Africans, and to young Muslim boys from Afghanistan and Iraq.

–Outcasts United,
Warren St. John

Whose thoughts and feelings are revealed in the first two sentences?


What conclusion can be drawn based on the thoughts and feelings that are revealed?

Answers

Answer:

The young boys' thoughts and feelings are revealed in the first two sentences.

We can conclude that through their reaction to seeing the woman coach, their society discriminates against the women and make them inferior to the men.

Explanation:

Outcasts United by Warren St. John tells the story of how a soccer team emerged from the refugees in the Georgian town of Clarkson despite their own misfortunes and even enmity among themselves. The effort of the coach Luma, who was also a female, and the common perception of not only the Americans but even the refugee families she's helping all acts as obstacles for the success.

From the given excerpt, the first two sentences reveal the thoughts and feelings of the young soccer enthusiasts who all came from different backgrounds and nationalities.

These thoughts on realizing that their coach is a female is rather shocking for them. Coming from backgrounds and nations (especially Muslim countries) that seems to be prejudiced against the female sex, the young boys find it hard to accept and believe that they will be taught soccer or even play under a women coach. This shows that society prioritizes men over women, thus making them inferior to the men.
