Well it started when Eris, the goddess of discord, wasn't invited to a party (a wedding or something along those lines). In anger, she created a golden apple, barged into the party, and threw it into the center of the table, saying "this apple is for whoever is the fairest." To summarize, three goddesses fought over the right to the apple. They decided that they should have someone choose instead of just fighting over it. The man that picked who deserved the apple was mortal, and he chose Aphrodite because she promised him the most beautiful woman of all.
The mortal did get Helen, but she was actually the soon to be wife of a very important King. The King thought she was kidnapped and this huge war broke out for over 8 years over Helena, Queen of Troy.
<em>In the course of my explorations twenty-five years ago,</em><em> </em>I found five sawmills located on or near the lower margin of the Sequoia belt, all of which were cutting more or less Big Tree lumber, which looks like the redwood of the coast, and was sold as redwood. <u>One of the smallest of these mills in the season of 1874 sawed two million feet of Sequoia lumber.</u>
Which statement best describes the point Muir is making in the passage?
<u>Which detail appeals to the reader’s logic?</u>

It was all a guess.
The answers go by how I labeled the questions. (1st is bolded in the passage, second is underlined, third is italicized)
Hope I helped anyway...
