What is the central idea of this passage? A. Man-made lagoons and beaches allow the opportunity to reuse rainwater from reservoi

rs. B. Artificial beaches are found in many cities around the world, especially those close to the coast. C. Man-made lagoons and beaches can provide a place for people to surf even without an ocean nearby. D. Artificial lagoons are regularly created from old ponds of water that are no longer needed to support wildlife.
What would you do if you loved to surf, but lived nowhere near the ocean? Well, in Wales, a country in Great Britain, the world's first public artificial wave pool has been built. What was once an aluminum factory has been turned into the longest man-made surf wave in the world, using rainwater from a nearby reservoir to fill the lagoon. The pool is able to produce a 6ft-tall barrel of water that peels for 490 feet and runs for 16 seconds. So, living in a landlocked city doesn't have to keep people from enjoying the water. An artificial beach or lagoon could solve this problem, especially if they are built indoors.

koban [17]

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

The children live in communities surrounded by the grape fields that employ their parents. The children come into contact with the poisons when they play outside, when they drink the water, and when they hug their parents returning from the fields. . . .

We have no choice, we must stop the plague of pesticides.

How do the examples in this passage best support Chavez's purpose?

A)They show the types of difficult labor that farm workers do so that people will stand up for them.

B)They show the hardships that farm workers experience so that people will act to protect them.

C)They show the harmful role that pesticides play in communities so that people will try to improve them.

D) They show how the dangers of pesticides are spread so that people will work to get rid of them.

Answer:

The correct answer is option D) They show how the dangers of pesticides are spread so that people will work to get rid of them.

Explanation:

This excerpt tries to show how dangerous pesticides are and that they have to get rid of that pest as soon as possible.

As people work in the grape fields, communities form around them. They are inhabited by children who are in constant danger since they have pesticides on everything around them. On the water, on their parents, on the air they breathe.

This is something that must be stopped immediately, and so we can say that the correct answer is option D.

<span>B) because it is a newspaper article

Quotation marks go around the title of a short work. Long works are underlined. For example, poems, short stories, and songs are all in quotation marks. Books and album titles are underlined. This source is an article. We can tell because the magazine is called the Hampton Gazette. There is also an edition number in the source citation - E8. These clues tell us it is an article. </span>
