Answer:

100% of the time it benefits someone to be a better student than an athlete.  College graduates make a good amount of money. It is true that throughout a lifetime of a college graduate, even in lower-paying jobs, like teaching, will do much better than a non-graduate. People who don’t have a college degree can have jobs that pay well but in most cases, the college graduate or top student will do better financially than a non-graduate.

Some would argue that professional athletes would make much more money. The percentage of those who make a professional roster is very slim. According to LeagueSide, an organization dedicated to increasing fundraising for youth sports, about 1.2% of college basketball players make it to the NBA. Roughly around 0.9% of female athletes make it to the WNBA. In baseball, 8.6% of college players are drafted into the MLB. However, being drafted into the MLB does not guarantee success. In football, about 1.6% of college athletes are drafted by the NFL. But, this will not guarantee a big contract. In men’s soccer, about 1.4% of college players are drafted by the MLS. For ice hockey, around 6.8% of college players are drafted by the NHL. Once again, being drafted does not guarantee a big contract or a successful career. According to the Journal of Medical Regulation, in 2018 there were more than 985,000 doctors in the United States. The exact number of professional athletes in the United States including men's and women’s sports would be far less. There are currently an estimated 11,800 athletes in the U.S.

31)  The citation (Connor 45) in paragraph 2 MOST LIKELY refers to which source?

The correct option is A) “Exploring the Mines” since in the paragraph the narrator specifically mentions the book when he says “I had already known what to expect once we got there since I had read Nathan Connor’s book, Exploring the Mines several times growing up.”

32)  How are the references organized in the Works Cited list?

The references in the Works Cited list are organized by last name alphabetically so option B) is the correct one. The list starts with the following authors: Anderson, Brady, Connor, Johnson, etc. and these are ordered by last name.

33)  Which search terms would BEST help you find the source written by LizBeth Stanley?

The search term that would best help me find the source written by LizBeth Stanley is option C) “Native Americans and coal miners” since the name of the book is “How Native Americans Were Affected by the Hunt for Coal.” The key words are “Native Americans” and “coal” so that the word search is successful.

Which option uses commas correctly ? (a) That girl, Sandra Gibbons is moving to Illinois. (b) My street address 1125 Forest Road
Anastasy [175]
The answer is D. When you are saying what a broader subject is, you surround it with commas. For example, when I say "My aunt, Sally, is old.". My broader subject is aunt. I show more detail by telling you her name, Sally. I hope this helps!
