On January 16, 1917, in a clear attempt to convince the Mexican government to help Germany in the war, Arthur Zimmermann, the Ge

rman foreign secretary, sent a telegram to Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador in Washington. The foreign secretary wanted to be certain that this message reached von Bernstorff, so he made arrangements for it to be carried aboard a U-boat to Sweden and from there to Washington through diplomatic channels. —The Dark Game, Paul Janeczko Which inference can a reader make based on the information in the passage? The message Zimmermann wanted to send to von Bernstorff was very important. Count von Bernstorff was expecting the message. U-boats were designed to transport messages securely. Zimmermann wanted to reach out to the Mexican government for support.

Answer:   U-boats were designed to make sure that messages being transported were secured.

Explanation: With the question and answer choices, it is a bit confusing at first. We see that, it’s talking about implications over explicit actualities, so we can remove the first and last choice about the message being important, while Zimmermann was looking for help. Both are explicitly stated in the excerpt, so it gives us a detailed account for why he was asking Mexico to assist Germany. It was not that stated that Mexico was expecting the message, and it was not hinted, since Germany is stated to only have gone through proper channels. They are trying to make sure they don't get caught, but one side is unaware of what is occurring. That leaves the U-boat choice, which seems like an accurate, implied statement from what is given. Nothing was suggested about the U-boat other than its level of transportation and method of delivery, but it is enough to infer. U-boats are stated to be for diplomatic channels and have to take certain routes, so the audience can think of its secrecy and security without being told.

Use ACTIVE to find three questions on the shorts story “up the slide”
Savatey [412]
All of these are informed by London's adventurous life, which included stints as a sailor and as a gold prospector in the Klondike region of Alaska, where there was a Gold Rush in the 1890s: the setting of ''Up the Slide''.

We know a few important things about the main character, Clay Dilham: he's young (seventeen) and arrogant. He's traveling with a man named Swanson to the village of Dawson to pick up mail. They've camped for the night when Clay boasts he'll be able to return with a sled full of firewood in just 30 minutes. This young whippersnapper is quite proud that he noticed a dead tree other travelers had overlooked. The only problem? It's high up on Moosehead Mountain, on a steep slide, or rock face, covered in snow.

No biggie, Clay thinks to himself. He knows the frozen river is below the tree and thinks that if he chops it down so it falls on the ice, the trunk will shatter into pieces: firewood ready-to-go. The older, more experienced Swanson just laughs at Clay's boldness. We have the sneaking suspicion that the opening of the story is a sign things won't turn out as planned, that this foreshadows, warning or indication, challenges to come.

Conflict: Man vs. Nature
As soon as Clay begins making his way up the slide, he realizes it's much steeper than he thought, and he regrets wearing slick-soled walrus-skin moccasins instead of more rugged footwear. He reaches a patch of snow-covered grass and keeps slipping on it. The only way he can make it through is by digging his bare hand into the snow and frozen dirt to slowly pull himself up. Finally, he makes it up to his tree, and chopping it down turns out to be the easiest part of the whole ordeal.

Clay looks at the way he came up the slide and realizes he'll just keep slipping and falling if he tries to climb back down. He starts to feel tired, but realizes if he stops moving, he'll freeze in the 30-below weather. Clay has underestimated some of the challenges nature can present and overestimated his ability to handle them. This makes ''Up the Slide'' a classic example of the literary conflict called man vs. nature.
