Read the following paragraph. Many high school students are becoming increasingly concerned about the effects of toxic pollution

in the environment. I know this because my students tell me that environmental destruction is one of their greatest fears for the future. A recent straw poll taken among my science classes revealed that over 90% of students were making efforts to use fewer resources and be less wasteful with those they did use. After all, they argue, people are living longer these days. Even if they couldn't be bothered to care about future generations, they themselves will be the ones living with the destruction not too far into the future.
 
Dr. Isaac Smith Which of the following cites evidence from the paragraph effectively?
    A. Smith writes that his students are more concerned than ever with environmental damage. Arguing that people live longer these days, his students claim that one motivating factor is that "they couldn't be bothered to care about future generations."
    B. Smith writes that his students are more concerned than ever with environmental damage. Arguing that people live longer these days, his students claim that one motivating factor is that "they themselves will be the ones living with the destruction not too far into the future."
   C. Smith writes that his students are more concerned than ever with environmental damage. "A recent straw poll taken among my science classes revealed that over 90% of students were making efforts to use fewer resources and be less wasteful with those they did use. After all, they argue, people are living longer these days. Even if they couldn't be bothered to care about future generations, they themselves will be the ones living with the destruction not too far into the future."
    D. Smith writes that his students are "more concerned than ever" with environmental damage. "Arguing that people live longer these days, his students claim that one motivating factor is that they themselves will be the ones living with the destruction not too far into the future."

The correct answer is B. The main difference between choices B, C, and D is the use of quotations appropriately. Quotations are only needed for the students' words, such as "<span>they themselves will be the ones living with the destruction not too far into the future". Choice A is not a logical statement, the supporting detail contradicts with the conclusion.</span>

TEA [102]

Answer:

My mistress was, as I have said, a kind and tender-hearted woman; and in the simplicity of her soul she commenced, when I first went to live with her, to treat me as she supposed one human being ought to treat another. In entering upon the duties of a slaveholder, she did not seem to perceive that I sustained to her the relation of a mere chattel, and that for her to treat me as a human being was not only wrong, but dangerously so. Slavery proved as injurious to her as it did to me. When I went there, she was a pious, warm, and tendor-hearted woman. There was no sorrow or suffering for which she had not a tear. She had bread for the hungry, clothes for the naked, and comfort for every mourner that came within her reach. Slavery soon proved its ability to divest her of these heavenly qualities. Under its influence, the tender heart became stone, and the lamblike disposition gave way to one of tiger-like fierceness. The first step in her downward course was in her ceasing to instruct me. She now commenced to practise her husband's precepts. She finally became even more violent in her opposition than her husband himself. She was not satisfied with simply doing as well as he had commanded; she seemed anxious to do better. Nothing seemed to make her more angry than to see me with a newspaper. She seemed to think that here lay the danger. I have had her rush at me with a face made all up of fury, and snatch from me a newspaper, in a manner that fully revealed her apprehension. She was an apt woman; and a little experience soon demonstrated, to her satisfaction, that education and slavery Were incompatible with each other.
