This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Dr. Dowell says that we need to be prepared for a pandemic. He thinks every nation should have an emergency plan. More medications like Tamiflu should be available. He thinks rich countries like the U.S. should help poor countries pay for medicine and health care.
Why does the author most likely include this information at the end of the text instead of at the beginning?
A. because it draws a conclusion based on the evidence presented throughout the text
B. because it offers new evidence that is meant to help readers better understand the text
C. because it poses new questions for readers to think about now that they have read the text
D. because it offers supplemental information that readers can compare to evidence presented in the text
Answer:
The author includes this information at the end of the text:
A. because it draws a conclusion based on the evidence presented throughout the text
.
Explanation:
After discussing and presenting evidence throughout the text, author John DiConsiglio is now ready to conclude it. What he presents at the end cannot be new evidence or supplemental information, for that would not be a conclusion at all. He is also not presenting questions - he is making statements. Those statements are based on the information presented previously, supported by it. What the author wants now is to show how important that information was and how we can use it to be prepared for future cases of the disease.

"This last was for the disposal of waste paper. Similar slits existed in thousands or tens of thousands throughout the building, not only in every room but at short intervals in every corridor. For some reason they were nicknamed memory holes. When one knew that any document was due for destruction, or even when one saw a scrap of waste paper lying about, it was an automatic action to lift the flap of the nearest memory hole and drop it in, whereupon it would be whirled away on a current of warm air to the enormous furnaces which were hidden somewhere in the recesses of the building. (1.4.2)"
Explanation:
The reason why the party acts in this way in this quote is that The Party seeks to control the present by mandating the destruction of all records of the past through "memory holes."
Answer:
The narrator restarts the fire by blowing on the embers
Explanation:
The narrator kneels and blows, by saying that the fire flickers, it would mean that it was not previously lit, hence, the narrator is restarting the fire.
I also think the correct answer is D. It uses religious stories and imagery to communicate modern ideals.
Secular means related to this world, something that doesn't have anything to do with religion or the Church. So I guess the final option best fits that description given that Franklin's speeches weren't intended to be religious, but rather didactic and teach people proper behavior.
