Answer:
If I were Jim, I would expect that when opening the chest I would find many precious metals, jewelry and other riches.
Explanation:
This question is about "Treasure Island" that tells the story of how Jim Hawkins, a pirate, sailed in search of a treasure chest buried by another pirate. If we were Jim, we would, like him, think that the chest would be full of riches, metals and precious jewels that would make him rich. However, when Jim actually has access to the chest he discovers that the chest contained a few gold coins, a lot of oiled paper, a suit, a compass, pistols and a quadrant.
Answer:
It is a rhetorical question that shows the speaker's exasperation.
Explanation:
In the poem, Walking Alone by Lawrence Raab, we read about the feeling of frustration the poet feels in a bid to reconnect with his lost love. He resorts to the writing of poems and the recitation of it to help him deal with the absence.
However, this skill does not seem to do much for him as he ended the poem by asking what his fingers were doing writing the poems all over again. This is a rhetorical question (a question meant to stress a point rather than to demand an answer) that highlighted his frustration.
From the excerpt you posted it looks like the writer's primary purpose is to persuade the audience to share his point of view.
This can be seen in phrases like "it seems to me that the decision is easy", where he implies that he has enough knowledge to see something that the Township officials are not seeing.

Answer:
(B) describe a particular position and its subsequent modification
Explanation:
Because during the text many hypotheses are presented, but rather than dismiss the theory, the author details it with the results, until it reaches a valid conclusion. So the first part would present the ideas with the limited knowledge possessed beforehand, following that, ideas are met with reality and are reevaluated.
