On the whole, Andrea and I had a good time on the President Taft. In the evenings we often watched movies. In the afternoons we

made pigs of ourselves at tea where we had our pick of all kinds of dainty sandwiches, scones, macaroons, chocolate bonbons, and gooey tarts. Actually, I even liked going to bed on shipboard. I'd lie in my bunk and feel the ship's engines throbbing and know that even when I fell asleep I wouldn't be wasting time. I'd still be on the go, moving closer to America every minute.

Answer:

The answer is to be found in the last sentence.

Explanation:

First the narrator describes a pleasant journey on a ship and then uses the sentence where she ( I imagine a woman, I don´t know why) talks about sleeping on the ship to express the most important thing about this journey: it brings her (or him) closer to America every minute. As a traveller myself (but not a tourist) I can understand very well the importance of travelling and enjoying yourself while shortening the distance to your goal.

The reason why I don´t like tourism is because travel is converted into mere displacement.

Read the sentence below about the Chicago fire of 1871. Many people tried very hard to save the building of the Chicago Tribune.
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The revision which is the best example of adding concrete detail is:

Claire Innes was separated from the people around her during the fire and she later found them near the same place they were separated.

The other options do not apply because the original sentence does not talk about Claire Innes' parents or family

Claire Innes became separated from her parents as the flames spread through the city, and she later found them.

In the panic, Claire Innes was separated from her family as they fled, and she was reunited with her father after the fire was extinguished.

In the panic, Claire Innes became separated from her brothers and sisters during the fire and she later found them after the fire was put out.
