NEED HELP ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Passage 1

The Galapagos Islands are the only places in the world with a combination of large, sea-going lizards, seabirds that can’t fly, and turtles the size of desks. Unsustainable fishing practices and a lack of well-managed protected areas have driven these island ecosystems to the edge of collapse and threaten the Galapagos’ irreplaceable plants and animals. In collaboration with local communities in Chile, Peru, and Ecuador, the Nature Conservancy is implementing new, sustainable fisheries programs and working to protect over 30 million acres of Pacific marine habitat in the region. Their progress is inspiring.

Passage 2

Manhattan Island is a part of New York City. It teems with people, pets, traffic, towering skyscrapers and 24-hour noise. A visitor only has to go a few blocks before recognizing famous landmarks, like the Guggenheim Museum or the stately lions guarding the entrance to the public library. The island, which looks out over the Atlantic Ocean, is home to Broadway and Wall Street. As the center of the financial and entertainment industries, it contains intoxicating promises of fame and fortune and attracts many people year after year, though few really make it to the top. Called the “Big Apple,” New York City is also known as the “Asphalt Jungle” due to its highly competitive nature. Anyone who can survive on this island can make it almost anywhere.

Looking at just the first sentence of each, I can tell A is true. C is not because only the first one talks about wildlife. D is also false because the bottom passage is more uplifting of what is going on in Manhattan.
