The correct answer is "A) the Earth's axis is tilted at about 23.5o". When the Earth completes one revolution on its axis, we have one day; and when it completes one orbit around the sun, we have one year. Besides that, instead of being perpendicular to the sun, the axis of rotation is tilted permanently in 23.5 degrees angle.  This difference in the axis rotation angle causes the northern hemisphere to be exposed to the sun longer, increasing the duration of the day during the summer solstice.

The correct answer is (D) : <em>The tilt of the Earth on its axis changes during the year.</em>

Earth orbits around the Sun as well as spinning on the axis of its rotation once a day. As the Earth orbits the Sun, the tilt of Earth's axis stays lined up with the North Star hence the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun. The Northern Hemisphere is usually tilted toward the sun on the summer solstice while the southern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun on the winter solstice. Northern Hemisphere hence expects the length of days to change from short days in the winter and long days around the summer solstice on June 21st.

A good newspaper article describes the scene of an event. Read this description of the scene of one of the debates. Use the info
BlackZzzverrR [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question is incomplete because it did not say what kind of debate, the place, the date, and the scene or the debate, we can say that when journalists report debates in the newspaper, they have to elaborate a specific description, chronologically, maybe, of the way congressmen debated.

A typical scene of debate includes Congressmen of the two parties discussing and even arguing their proposals, trying to defend their ideas in order to win the debate. Sometimes the debate gets heated and it becomes something personal, although that is not professional.
