Read the following passage:I had been reaching for the wrong things all along. I thought my family wanted nice cars and private

schools. I thought they expected me to provide these for them. I told myself it was O.K. to make up for "quantity time" by forcing in some "quality time" with an expensive vacation. But they missed me. You know, a hundred bedtime stories are worth more than a week in Cancun with a father who's passed out from exhaustion.What is most likely the purpose of the passage? A.To caution against spending time and money foolishly B.To show that you can't make everyone happy all the time C.To illustrate that one can't put a price on health and happiness D.To teach that it's the little things in life that count

Answer:

D.To teach that it's the little things in life that count.

Explanation:

In this passage, we encounter a father who works hard to provide for his family. The family enjoys nice cars, private schools and expensive holidays. However, what they do not have is quality time with the father. The father tells us that he realizes now that money cannot buy happiness or quality time, and that he has been foolish in thinking that money is more important than this. He has now learned that it is the little things, such as bedtime stories, that count in life.

Read the following passage from Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and respond to the prompt.

Answer:

Explanation:

The tone of this passage is that the author was solemn and distant. Wandering in the forest to find this myterious flower, and then finally finding it must have been amazing because he states at the end of paragraph 3," It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy." He created the feeling of finally finding what you lost by saying that he cried for joy. Wanting to find something that seemed impossible, then finding it must have been a truly joyous feeling. He described the forest by having dropping vines and branches, having the feeling that you might get lost since the sun is going down, and describing finding the flower in all of its glory.

Answer:

A, Hasty Generalization

Explanation:

The idea that once someone votes against something once that then they will always vote against that thing is an extremely quick and incorrect assumption. Along with this, B couldn't be the answer because it isn't a slippery slope. Nor is this false authority or circular reasoning.
