Answer:

Explanation:

1) It is trustworthy

If a source is reliable, it means that it does not contain false information, and that if there are opinions in the piece, they are clearly indicated to be opinions rather than disguising opinions as facts.

2) A survey of eight professional athletic organizations

When it comes to an opinion versus a survey, a survey typically collects more diverse and therefore more reliable info. Basketball players and baseball coaches are surely great at their respective sports, but they are not professional, and neither are the physed teachers.

3) A story about a teenager (...)

All of the other choices are studies, surveys, and interviews with professionals, so this single answer choice not including any research is a red flag.

4) It is trying to sell a product

Let's say a snack company is trying to sell their very sugary cookies. They might create an article claiming that these unhealthy snacks are 'good for athletes' and help their performance. These supposed facts cannot be backed up by anyone, nor are they even true! Therefore, any article with a goal to sell a product should not be trusted as unbiased.

tamaranim1 [39]

Literature, painting, fiction, poetry, and theater made the Harlem Renaissance interesting. But music became the main highlight during that period in the history. Jazz was discovered as a new style of piano playing. People who heard this new sound considered it as a refreshing take on an old sound. Jazz started to lure white music fans into going to African American clubs where only African Americans commonly go. It became the common interest of the whites with other music fans. They didn't anymore mind whether the featured pianist was an African American of white. As long as the pianist is good in playing the instrument, everyone is listening even the whites.

In "Rules of the Game", what do Waverly's mother's comments reveal indirectly about her ambitions for Waverly? "Next time win mo

murzikaleks [220]

Answer: A

Explanation:

Waverly's mother is upset that she often loses chess pieces to her opponent, which is made clear when she says "Next time win more, lose less." Because of that and the other comments, we know that it's not B or C, because she never said anything that insinuates that she wants Waverly to lose or stop playing. Although her mother is happy when Waverly wins again, she never says anything about wanting her to be successful, so it's not D.

Basically, A is the correct answer because Waverly would lose less pieces if she blocked her opponent, and her mother wants her to lose less chess pieces.
