Part A What argument does the author make in Paragraph 8? Wind power is an underused resource that has the potential to provide

the energy to power electricity for the entire country. Wind power is an overrated energy industry that costs more money to develop and maintain than other alternative energy sources. Several government bodies must pass legislation to regulate wind power distribution channels before it can be used across the entire country. The use of alternative energy like wind will end dependence on outside sources of energy and immediately improve the environment. Part B How effective is the author’s response to the statistics in Paragraph 8 that demonstrate that wind power produced a minimal amount of the nation’s electricity in 2012? Effective; the author refutes the counterclaim by providing evidence that wind power has produced significantly more energy since 2012. Effective; the author acknowledges the counterclaim and explains the U.S. Department of Energy’s plan to increase the use of wind energy in the future. Ineffective; the author avoids addressing the counterclaim by attacking the validity of the study by the AWEA in 2012. Ineffective; the author ignores the counterclaim and instead provides exaggerated praise for the possible contributions of wind power in the future.

Reread Sonnet 30 by William Shakespeare. How does the speaker behave and feel in the poem before he thinks of his “dear friend”?
aev [14]

Answer: 1. He feels and behaves depressed and regretful about his past actions and thoughts. 2. The thought of his "dear friend" compensates his losses and his sorrow ends. 3. Because by changing his tone he makes emphasis the fact that his "dear friend" was indeed the light of his life.

Explanation: Shakespeare conveys a very sad and depressing message in the sonnet, regretting how he failed to achieve his goals, wasted the best years of his life, and crying over the loss of his friends. We can see this in the following lines: "I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought, then can I drown an eye, and with old woes new wail my dear time's waste.

Nevertheless, in the lines "But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restor'd and sorrows end", he acknowledges his "dear friend", and the sonnet makes a twist. He emphasizes that thinking of this person relieves all his guilt and pain, making then, a tribute to them.
