The correct answer is “B. Comparison/contrast.”

<span>This one is a bit tricky because when we read the excerpt we read through descriptions of the types of calculations made.  However, being described first are what the human computers and electronic calculators have in common (a comparison).  What follows is a description of the differences (a contrast) in how the calculations were made.  With that in mind, it can be determined that the organizational structure of this excerpt is that of the comparison/contrast. </span>

Lines 424-430 what message is implied by the old woman’s transformation into a young beautiful woman
gavmur [86]

An implied message is the type of message where an idea is not directly stated, rather it is subtly inferred.

Therefore, to identify an implied message in a sentence:

  • First understand the main idea
  • Then, observe the supporting details that back up the main idea

For example, if someone says: "This car is a jet", he does not mean that the car is literally a jet, but implies that the car is fast and can get to top speed in a short time.

As a result of this, follow  the above guideline to get an implied message's meaning

S_A_V [24]
Lifeguards at pools, beaches, lakes and other aquatic facilities must be trained to respond to injuries, potential cases of drowning and other medical emergencies. They must also maintain order and enforce safety rules, and they may be responsible for assisting and instructing guests regarding these rules. The main roles of a lifeguard are to prevent accidents and spot potential trouble/hazards before they become life-threatening, and responding to emergencies when needed. They also educate the public about the risks associated with aquatic activities and how to be Water Smart
