On the day I was born, the Dallas Cowboys won the Super Bowl, at least that is what my parents told me. Once, while I was resear

ching my thesis, I pulled up old issues of the Dallas Morning News on microfilm. None of the papers from the week I was born had any articles about the Cowboys playing in the Super Bowl, much less winning. I never mentioned it to my parents. It would break their hearts.
My parents also believe that they took me to my first concert when I was seven years old. It was a Rolling Stones concert. They believe that the event was responsible for my love of The Rolling Stones and my musical talent. Though I do love The Stones and consider myself to be a talented musician, neither has anything to do with that concert, which never happened. The Stones toured when I was four, they toured when I was eleven, but they never toured when I was seven.
These are two examples of cherished memories which never happened with me. The rightful owners of these memories are my brother and my parents. These memories are some of my parents' favorites, so I let them enjoy them. It doesn't really matter to me because I like to hear the stories and have my own favorite memories.
My parents took me to meet pro skater, Jeff Phillips. They always fostered my musical talent, supported my love of skateboarding, and attended my high school and college graduations. Those are the memories I will cherish always.

Select the correct answer. What is the purpose of the third paragraph in the passage?​
koban [17]

Hello. You forgot to show the text and answer options. Both are set out below.

In 2002, astronomers using Hubble noted that the abundance of high-altitude clouds increased the planet's brightness from observations made in the late 1990s. Astronomers consider this brightness increase a sign of seasonal change. Hubble studies show that Neptune has a nearly constant brightness at low latitudes (near the equator). This supports the idea that the observed changes are seasonal in nature, because seasonal effects would be minimal near the equator and most evident at high latitudes.

A. to prove how scientists were able to confirm that Neptune has recurring weather

B. to suggest that Neptune is similar to Earth in terms of weather patterns

C. to demonstrate how scientists were able to conclude that Neptune has clouds like Earth

D. to introduce the idea that Neptune is similar to other planets in the galaxy

Answer:

A. to prove how scientists were able to confirm that Neptune has recurring weather

Explanation:

The text presents how scientists came to the conclusion that Neptune is a planet that has seasonal changes, similar to the earth, but with a different time interval between them. The text also shows that it is possible to observe these seasonal changes with the increase in the latitude at which the planet is observed, which reinforces the idea that, on this planet, the climate is recurrent, according to seasonality.

If you were to write a travel brochure advertising a visit to the Giza pyramids,
Kipish [7]

If I was writing a Travel brochure advertising a visit to the Giza Pyramid, I would highlight the following points:

  • The Pyramids of Giza date back to nearly 2,560 BC, more than 4000 years old!

  • They are the grandest and the most well-preserved examples of the Great Ancient Egyptians

  • The biggest pyramid in Giza stands at roughly 450ft tall and was the tallest man-made object for more than 3000 years until being surpassed by the Lincoln Cathedral

  • It is close the great capital city of Cairo. This means it is easily accessible by car with numerous tours operating in the area.
