(1) As we scroll through our social media feeds each day, most people enjoy videos of adorable animals or stunning photos of nat

ural landscapes. (2) Far from simply brightening our day, engagement with the natural world through social media may actually be helping to save our planet.
(3) Both individuals and organizations increasingly use social media to raise awareness of environmental issues and support conservation research. (4) A research article, news report, or photograph that “goes viral” can reach a global audience in a matter of minutes, connecting interested people with each other and allowing for a nearly immediate exchange of ideas. (5) In 2012, for example, a high school student posted a picture of an unusual lizard he saw in a local park to a nature-focused social network, where other members identified the lizard and noted how far it was from its known habitat. (6) This in turn became useful data for researchers studying these lizards and their changing ecosystem.

(7) The global audience provided by social media can also have a considerable economic impact for environmental causes. (8) Consumer pressure following the viral circulation of photos of turtles and other marine life injured by plastic drinking straws, for example, has led major corporations to seek more environmentally sustainable options. (9) Partly because viral content often makes people get all weepy, social media has also provided powerful fund-raising opportunities. (10) After a video recently circulated showing a rescued chimpanzee who enjoys playing with dolls, online donations to the rescue organization began pouring in. (11) Many social media platforms allow users to set up a donation campaign for an organization they support without any real effort on the part of the organization itself, increasing the benefit of even small donations.

(12) While some may argue that “hashtag activism” and online discussion have little real-world impact on individual behavior or public policy, social media is proving to be an increasingly powerful tool to draw attention—and resources—to conservation efforts.

In sentence 9 (reproduced below), which version of the underlined text best maintains the tone of the passage?

Partly because viral content often makes people get all weepy, social media has also provided powerful fund-raising opportunities.

Based on Robert Frost’s poem "The Road Not Taken,” which is the best theme statement about "consequences
Slav-nsk [51]
<span>The best theme statement about consequences based on Robert Frost’s poem "The Road Not Taken” is Every choice in life brings with it a wholly different set of consequences. In short, in every decision in life, there is an equivalent effect or consequences behind it. So you cannot say that what you have been experiencing right now is because of fate, it is in face the consequence of your decision.

Career objectives should always be included in your resume. True False
krek1111 [17]

Yes, this is a true statement.

Within a resume, you would want to explain practically what you have done throughout your life, such as academic e.g "Career objectives' and perhaps some social work you've done in your past. Like for example, if you are in a interview to work for a construction site, within the resume, you would put e.g "I've done concrete, I do drywall, ... etc" Which of-course, that is just an example, but, in cases like this, you would put career objectives within your resume.

How do you make your writing appeal to the audiance
mars1129 [50]
Know you audience and tailor your writing to them. This will help them relate or "see" what you're writing.

If you are telling a story to young children, use simple words and be descriptive and enthusiastic.

If you are writing to impress a college admitter, use complex words and formal diction.

If you are writing for a religious audience, maybe  write a sermon0type passage and include religion in your writing.
