Read this excerpt from "Not a Dove, But No Longer a Hawk." I remember distinctly the thrill of climbing aboard a U.S. Army helic

opter in the cool of the morning and taking off across the rice fields with a South Vietnamese battalion for a day’s jousting with the Vietcong guerillas. I was proud of the young American pilots sitting at the controls in the cockpit and I was grateful for the opportunity to witness this adventure and to report it. We are fighting now, I used to think, and some day we will triumph and this will be a better country. Based on this excerpt, it can be inferred that the war provides the author with his first flying experience. the author once felt pride and optimism about the war. the US soldiers are trained in hand-to-hand combat. the author has a begrudging respect for the Vietcong.

Answer:

The correct answer would be option b:"The author once felt pride and optimism about the war".

Explanation:

In the excerpt, the author says that "he was proud of the young American pilots sitting at the controls in the cockpit" and that "he was grateful for the opportunity to witness this adventure and report it".

It just says that he was excited to get on a U.S Army helicopter, it does not say nor infer that is was his first flying experience, therefore, option a is incorrect.

It doesn't say and it cannot be inferred that the U.S soldiers are trained in hand to hand combat, so option c is also incorrect.

The author barely mentions the Vietcong guerillas, and he does not seem to have any respect for them since he was excited about war, so option d is also incorrect.

Select the best evidence to support the inference that sailors often used shorelines and islands to help them know their locatio
NARA [144]

Answer:

They have no map.

Explanation:

Sailors often used shorelines and islands to help them know their location because they have no map from which they got guidance. For example, an old sailor does not use map for traveling in the ocean due to its experience and some identification or symbols which he remembered that give him information about the way. These identification or symbols must be shorelines and islands because there is no other thing present in the ocean except these so the sailors used these symbols to know their location.
