On her way home from school, Doris always checked the mailbox to see if any mail had come. Today, there wasn't anything in the m

ailbox, but there were three boxes next to it. One of the boxes was nearly as big as she was. The second box was even bigger, and the third was the biggest box she had ever seen.
2Doris loved getting mail, so she opened the first box immediately. When she lifted the lid, a hairy arm reached out and squeezed her nose. Doris let out a little scream of surprise. There was a monkey inside the box! It hopped around the yard and climbed up a tree.

3Doris wondered what could possibly be in the other boxes. The third box was so big she was unable to open it, so she opened the second instead. Inside was a tiny car. The headlights came on, and it drove out of the box. The door opened and a clown shoe slowly appeared. The shoe belonged to a clown, who was followed out of the car by another clown, and then another clown. Soon, seven clowns were standing in her yard, throwing pies.



Suddenly, the mailman came running up the road. “There's been a horrible mistake,” he yelled. “Those boxes were supposed to be delivered to the circus!”

"A Very Special Delivery".



Read the passage.



This story is mostly about

A
a girl who gets boxes in the mail meant for the circus.

B
a tiny car full of clowns that fits inside of a large box.

C
a giant elephant in a really big box.

D
a monkey that climbs up a tree.

Critical-thinking instruction is predicated on two assumptions: that there are clearly identifiable thinking skills that student
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The best statement in the options to replace the underlined section in the question: Critical-thinking instruction is predicated on two assumptions: that there are clearly identifiable thinking skills that students can be taught to recognize and apply appropriately, and <u>if recognized and applied, students </u> will become more effective thinkers, would be, E: that if students recognize and apply these skills, they.... As such, the full response to your question, would be:

Critical-thinking instruction is predicated on two assumptions: that there are clearly identifiable thinking skills that students can be taught to recognize and apply appropriately, and that if students recognize and apply these skills, they will become more effective thinkers.

Explanation:

The first reason to choose E comes from the structure provided by the initial sentence. Since after the colon, the sentence initiates with a "that" and the clause, then the answer, in grammatical agreement, will have to have the same format in its beginning. From the options, only two fit that requirement, D and E. However, D relies the meaning that it is the students, and not the application of the skills, that will reach the goal stated in the final clause, which is not at all logical. Also, E, aside from completing the full statement in a logical manner, does so clarifying all the necessary information to make sense of the importance of what is being said.

Shania and Roland looked at each other evaluating the situation, and then saw their car, it wasn’t badly damaged. They talked for a few minutes in private and decided that they were tired and wanted to return home quickly so they wouldn’t press any changes. The driver gave Roland the insurance information and thanked them. Finally, Shania and Roland returned home in their crashed car thinking if they had done correctly. Next morning, they woke up and while they were having breakfast, they listened to the news. A man was killed in a car accident…he was the man that had crashed their car the previous night. They immediately thought…what if we had called the police and pressed charges? Maybe the driver would be still alive.
