Select the correct answer. Read an excerpt from the draft of a student essay. The creation of Title IX in college sports has had

a lasting impact on women’s sports in the United States. Title IX is a federal law that states that women cannot be discriminated against in athletics at schools, colleges, or universities that receive federal funding. It has allowed girls and young women to pursue sports and go on to compete on the world stage, especially in professional soccer. The World Cup soccer competition in 2016 was a significant moment, as the United States women’s team advanced to win the title. While male professional athletes still outrank women in terms of salary, women are gaining prominence. Many women play on professional teams and have sponsorships with major companies. One of the most significant places that Title IX has had an impact on is high school sports. Which word would best replace the bolded word, significant, in the fourth sentence? A. typical B. trivial C. pivotal D. unremarkable

Answer:

c. pivotal

Explanation:

a. typical and b. trivial is awkward. we are left with c and d. it would also be awkward to say that it was an unremarkable moment for the women's team to advance to win the title. Therefore, it must be pivotal (crucial importance).

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.
azamat

Answer: The right answer is "moving from the details of the individual hieroglyphics to the big picture of hieroglyphics being both representations of sounds and symbols."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, in this excerpt from James Cross Giblin's entertaining account of the discovery of the Rosetta Stone and its translation by French historian Jean François Champollion (1790-1832), the narrator is pointing out that reflecting upon the hieroglyphs further gave Champollion a chance to understand that, far from simply representing the sounds that identified the names of the pharaohs, or, as some scholars thought, having solely a symbolic meaning, hieroglyphs were both sounds and symbols. He, therefore, advanced the knowledge on the spoken language of ancient Egypt.

There is no reason why a person who is fifteen years old should not be allowed to get a driver's license. There is nothing magic
slega [8]

Answer:

Not reasonable because it ignores valid objections that could be raised.

Explanation:

As the author says "There is nothing magic about the number of years in a person's age", it is true there is nothing magic but this is not reasonable because there are two crucial points related to age and driving:

i- development and healthy;

ii- criminal liability and civil responsibility.

Both teenagers and older people have specific age related conditions. Many scientific studies suggest that teenagers don’t have their brain and psychological characteristics fully developed, because they haven’t fully developed their cognition and sense of responsibility they may choose to take more risks when driving such as using cellphone or drinking and driving. On the other side the elderly tends to loose physical strength, having issues with vision, audition or mental abilities, or responding slowly to events and be impaired to operate a vehicle.  

So many states will define a minimum age for driving based in the age of criminal liability and civil responsibility stated in the constitution or in laws. It is not just about parents trust and sense of responsibility but also about laws and substantial knowledge about human development.
