When some people think about Texas, they think of cowboys on the open range-herding cattle up a dusty trail. However, Texas has

much more than open prairie with large herds of cows. There are the mountains of West Texas, the piney hills of east Texas, and the emerald waters off the coast of Padre Island. Texas also has large coastal harbors with numerous sailboats, powerboats, inland lakes, rivers, swamps of southeast Texas with alligators and other exotic wildlife. The Summary of this passage is:

This question is missing the answer options. I have found the complete question online. It is the following:

When some people think about Texas, they think of cowboys on the open range-herding cattle up a dusty trail. However, Texas has much more than open prairie with large herds of cows. There are the mountains of West Texas, the piney hills of east Texas, and the emerald waters off the coast of Padre Island. Texas also has large coastal harbors with numerous sailboats, powerboats, inland lakes, rivers, swamps of southeast Texas with alligators and other exotic wildlife. The Summary of this passage is:

1. There are a lot of cows in Texas.

2. There are many different, varied parts of Texas.

3. Texas is one of the biggest states in the United States.

4. There are alligators in the swampland of southeast Texas.

Answer:

The summary of the passage is:

2. There are many different, varied parts of Texas.

Explanation:

The purpose of the excerpt is to show readers how varied Texas is. Sure, there are a lot of cows and cowboys, but that is not all there is to it. The speaker lists several different features, such as the mountains and hills, the coast and the harbors, and the interesting wildlife. With that in mind, we can easily eliminate options 1, 3, and  4 since they focus each on only one aspect of Texas. The best summary of the passage is 2. There are many different, varied parts of Texas.

Which slogan contains alliteration?
zvonat [6]
Alliteration refers to the stylistic device wherein a number of words, which have the same 1st consonant sound, occur closely within a series.

Some obvious examples of alliteration are:
-Alice’s aunt ate apples and acorns around August.
<span>-But a better butter makes a batter better
</span>
Among your choices, the closest representation of alliteration is The Snack You Can Sneak. Although the choice "Simply the Best Snacks" does have 2 S's. The former has a better creative and rhythmic value.
 
So I would go for "<span>The Snack You Can Sneak" as the best answer here. </span>
