C. Adults without a high school diploma might have a more difficult time finding an office job than other adults.

This is an example of an incorrect or illogical comparison. The author is comparing adults without a high school diploma to other adults. However, who the other adults are is not clear. Do the other adults have a high school diploma? GED? Associates degree? Bachelors degree? Masters degree? Doctorate? This breaks the rule of you can't compare something of a specific type to all things of that type.

An illogical comparison happens when a sentence compares two things that aren't of the same type, for example comparing people with objects, which is the case on this question.

The options from A,B, and C, compare things from the same type, in A the comparison is between jobs, in B the comparison is between jobs as well, and in C the comparison is between people.

The only illogical comparison is comparing people with jobs, as done in option D.

So, the answer to this question is:

D. My sister has had more summer jobs than anyone in our family.

Answer:

Cinnamon Rolls

Explanation:

Make the dough: The ingredients are pretty standard: flour, sugar, salt, yeast, water, milk, butter, and 1 egg. Heat the butter, milk, and water together. Next, stir the butter mixture into the dry ingredients, then add the egg. At this point, your dough is ready to knead!

Knead the dough: You can use your mixer or hands to knead the dough. Want to learn more about the process of kneading? I study this helpful guide often. When you’re finished kneading, cover the dough and let it rest for a few minutes so the gluten settles. During this time, get your filling ingredients ready: butter, cinnamon, and sugar.

Shape the cinnamon rolls: Roll the dough out into a 14×8 inch rectangle. Spread the butter on top, then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. You can use regular white granulated sugar or brown sugar in the filling. Tightly roll up the dough and cut into 11-12 pieces. Place in a greased round pan and get ready to rise.

Rise: Let the shaped rolls rise for 60-90 minutes. Remember, this is the only rise time for the rolls.

Bake: After the cinnamon rolls are nice and puffy, bake until golden brown.
