Answer:
C) To explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish
Explanation:
The given question refers to an excerpt from <em>The Travels of Marco Polo</em><em>:</em>
And let me tell you something else. They have sheep here that have no ears, nor even ear-holes; but in the place where ears ought to be they have little horns. They are small creatures and very pretty. And here is something else that may strike you as marvelous: their domestic animals—sheep, oxen, camels, and little ponies—are fed on fish. They are reduced to this diet because in all this country and in all the surrounding regions there is no grass; but it is the driest place in the world.
The options you were given are the following:
A) to explain why sheep have horns but no ears
B) to explain why sheep in the region are so small
C) to explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish
D) why there are such large quantities of fish available
The correct answer is C. Sheep feed on grass. The climate of the described region is so dry that there is no more grass, so sheep no longer have anything to eat. Instead of letting them die, the people began feeding them fish. The rest of the options are not consequences of the dry climate.
The interview I analyzed was on Will Perkins, who is the admissions director at South Carolina's Governor School for Science and Mathematics. Will Perkins has held his position at the school for 2 years. Not only does he work with admissions, but also does advising and oversees some of the extra-curricular activities the school has to offer.
The interview was very helpful for people interested in attending the school in the future. He also describes the process in which he accepts students into the school. He describes how he recruits students starting in middle school to transition into the school as they pass through junior high. In the interview he also discusses his day to day life with his career, possibly helping those who might want to pursue a career like that. Overall, Will Perkins' interview is very effective for a variety of reasons to do with the Governor's school.
The questions asked in the interview were very on topic, relating closely to his job, responsibilities, and general questions about the school. He was asked questions such as the recruitment process, where the school is located, challenges he faces, his goals, and many others. The interviewer, Greg Everett asked the right kind of questions, often asking questions that require a more elaborate answer, more than a simple yes or no question. He often asked about how this jobs differs from his previous work experience, and how the test scores are taken into account of whether or not to accept a student.
Greg Everett often followed up on questions that Will Perkins had answered. After a question, if he had a follow up question relating to the topic, he would immediately ask another. An example would be after asking Will about the admissions process, he then asked whether or not there was a specific trait that the board of admissions looks for in particular. In conclusion, the interview with Will Perkins is well directed and is very educational for those who have in interest in attending the Governors School for Science and Mathematics.

Explanation:
<u>Tanka poems always have a structure, but not the rhyme.</u>
They follow the pattern of syllables which goes like this:
- line - 5 syllables
- line - 7 syllables
